Repeating Cruise Comments: |
This is not a repeating cruise within one operating year, but it is the beginning of a total of 6 repeating cruises, one every three months to the same site for the same work. The only requirement for timing of subsequent cruises in the schedule is that they occur after the sediment trap timers have run their 3-month programs. |
Justification/Comments: |
Co-PIs on this proposal (Cindy Lee, J. Kirk Cochran, and Rob Armstrong) have deployed these particular traps with the Endeavor before, and felt this ship is ideal for our purposes. A larger ship (such as the Knorr) is overkill for our operations, while a small ship (such as the Cape Hatteras) is probably not large enough for our needs.
5 days of time on site should be sufficient for trap recovery and deployment, water pumping, and coring |

Requested Start Port: |
Narragansett, RI, USA |
Intermediate Port(s): |
None |
Requested End Port: |
Narragansett, RI, USA |
Port Comments: |
Narragansett is the Endeavor's home port, and is conveniently close to the PI's institution (Stony Brook University, NY) for travel purposes. More importantly, it is ideally located for loading purposes. This will be the first cruise in a series of six, and thus we will be loading our entire sediment trap mooring on the ship on this cruise. It is also one of the closest ports to the mooring site, thus reducing transit time.
Bermuda could be used as the End Port if needed, and this would reduce ship transit time by approximately 2 days. |
