every 6 months |
| Repeating Cruise Comments: |
Recover, redeploy, refresh power systems and sensors every 6 months. |
| Justification/Comments: |
Spring and fall cruises to meet requirement to refresh power and sensors every 6 months, deal with biofouling.
Deck payload when deploying and servicing moorings requires large UNOLS vessel, such as Knorr. |
