NOAA Ship GORDON GUNTER
Visiting scientists aboard the GORDON GUNTER make detailed observations of marine mammal and bird activity as well as conducting fishery and living marine resource research. Scientists collect fish and crustacean specimens using trawls and benthic longlines and fish larvae, eggs, and plankton using plankton nets and surface and midwater larval nets. The ship supports the research of the Southeast Fisheries Science Center a regional office of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and Pascagoula Laboratory in Pascagoula, Mississippi.
