Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
This request is for the first of the two cruises. On this cruise, Worcester needs to install acoustic source and receiver moorings prior to overlapping cruises by Mercer and Baggeroer that will last very roughly 1 month each. On the second cruise, Worcester will recover the moorings following the Mercer and Baggeroer cruises. Mercer and Baggeroer will submit separate ship time requests with more detailed information on their cruises. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
Any of the Large/Global ships (Melville, Revelle, or Thompson) would be adequate for Worcester's mooring deployments and recoveries. Weather considerations make April-May the best time frame for this work, as it is after the worst winter weather and prior to the typhoon season. |
