Ship Request

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 Information  
Project Title: Collaborative research: Large-scale, long-term, multi-directional, cross-hole experiments in the upper oceanic crust using a borehole observatory network Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: Andrew T. Fisher, UCSC Project Institution: UCSC
Project ID: 101012 Version #: 6
Date Submitted: 4/12/2007 7:06:00 PM Created By: Andrew T. Fisher
Date Last Modified: 6/15/2010 12:42:00 PM URI Serial #: 20070214192719QR
Funding Agencies: NSF/OCE/ODP - 0727952 - Funded
Summary of Field Work: Program timing is contingent on IODP schedule: IODP currently plans to cement reentry cones in Holes 1301A and 1301B in late July to early August 2008 - dive operations should follow cementing, so that we can check quality of seals and condition of CORKs. In addition, we will replace downhole and seafloor instrumentation in Hole 1026B, and recover pressure data from Hole 1027C. Two dives are funded separately by NSF as part of OCE-0550713, so the total for Fisher et al. in 2008 is six dives (4 + 2). The rescoped 2007 NSF proposal also includes 11 dives in Summer 2009. Summer 2009 submersible operations will include: recovery and replacement of downhole and seafloor sampling and instrumentation systems in seafloor observatories in Holes 1301A and 1301B, collection of pressure data from Holes 1026B and 1027C, and removal of a supplementary battery pack on the Sub/ROV platform at Hole 1027C, in preparation for recovery and replacement of that observatory system during the following summer's drilling operations (IODP JdF2010). We will also recover pressure data from the long-term CORK observatories in Hole 857D, Middle Valley, and Holes 1024C and 1025C, at the
western end of the ODP Leg 168 transect.

Summary of other requirements and comments: We may wish to run multibeam and/or heat flow surveys at night. Winch, wire, and echosounder requests above are for heat flow work, to be confirmed.
