Ship Time Request Overview

STR Management has moved to MFP

The US Academic Research Fleet is moving to Marine Facilities Planning (MFP) for scheduling initially and eventually cruise planning.

For all NEW or RESUBMITTED Projects/Ship Time Requests, go to https://mfp.us and create a new SME. Some STRs for projects starting in 2022 and beyond have already been moved to Marine Facilities Planning (mfp.us). Check your MFP Science Portal for any projects that might already be moved. If you need to make edits to projects that begin in 2022 and beyond, please contact mfp@unols.org for assistance. Be sure to indicate the Project and STR IDs that you would like to edit. For more information on getting into MFP, see the More Information button below.

Project Description and Facility Requirements
Project Web Page:
Summary of Field Work: 6 days are requested for the URI Honors class cruise. Science party will consist of 12 URI undergrads, 2 graduate students and chief sci.

Periods spanning March break or Easter long weekend might be desirable from the point of view of minimizing the classes the students will miss.
Summary of Facility Requirements: Science activities are somewhat TBD depending on who is chief sci.

We will likely mount the Big Eyes on the pilot house deck and the UCTD in the starboard quarter by the A frame (as done in CSI:Ocean Spring 2017).
Summary of other requirements or comments: ** Omand will be on mat leave during the specified window so we are exploring other GSO faculty that can be chief sci or postponing the cruise by 1 year.** We hope to decide on this ASAP
