Repeating Cruise Comments:
Justification/Comments: Seward Johnson or large vessel required as volume of mooring equipment cannot be supported by smaller vessels (i.e. Endeavor/Oceanus class are too small). Also Seward Johnson is capable of doing 50-60 full-ocean-depth CTD casts (i.e. to 6000 m) and it has a climate-controlled van for salinity/Autosal processing.

Latest start date limitation is due to conflict with later cruise for one participant group.

  End Port: Freeport, Bahamas
Requested Start Port: Fort Pierce, FL, USA

Instrumentation Comments: No science party vans planned, however if Seward Johnson is the vessel provided, we would want them to bring their climate-controlled van with Autosals for salinity processing.
