Dates to Avoid: |
Strongly prefer to run P2 at a time of year to avoid cyclones/hurricanes and heavier seas. Prefer not to run into the wind. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
This is approximately a repeat of WHP line P2. R/V Roger Revelle is ideal. 62 science days include transit to and from Intermediate Port (nominally Honolulu) and 3 days in the intermediate port to break the cruise into two legs. Some of the science team will be exchanged during the intermediate port stop, but little of the scientific equipment will be onloaded or offloaded there. |

Important Info on Foreign Research Clearances
|
|
Are you or any member in your science party bringing in any science equipment items which are regulated for export by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and/or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)?
|
No |
If yes, have you applied for the necessary permits through your export control office?
|
No |
Questions about ITAR/EAR regulations?
|
Comments about foreign clearance requirements or description of any other special permitting requirements (e.g., MMPA, ESA, IHA, Marine Sanctuaries, etc.) |

Explanation/justification for requested ports and dates of intermediate stops or to list additional port stops |
Intermediate Port Call of 3 days requested. Cruise can start in Yokohama, stop in Hawaii, then end in San Diego, or be run in the reverse direction. In 2002, we ran this cruise Yokohama-Honolulu-San Diego and it worked well. (I am not able to get your "select port" feature to work, sorry.) |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
This is a standard cruise for what UNOLS calls the CLIVAR or Repeat Hydrography program. We bring most of our own techs, but will need the ship-supplied resident tech and electronics/computer tech. Woody Sutherland will be requesting 8 additional SIO/STS techs, as usual, for the CTDO, rosette, salinity, oxygen, nutrient, and data tasks. |

Dynamic Positioning | ADCP | Multibeam | Seismic |
Dredging/Coring/Large Dia. Trawl Wire | Stern A-frame | Fiber Optic (.681) | 0.680 Coax Wire |
SCUBA Diving | Radioisotope use - briefly describe | NO Radioisotope use/Natural level work | Other Operator Provided Inst. - Describe |
5 PI-Provided Vans - briefly describe | MOCNESS | | |
|
Explain Instrumentation or Capability requirements that could affect choice of ship in scheduling. |
Prefer dual shipboard ADCPs; GPS attitude sensor. Typically 3 lab vans (on fantail) and 2 storage vans
|
|
|
Explain Major Ancillary Facilities Requirements and list description and provider for "other" systems. |
We will use the ship's underway meteorology sensor (and related) system, the ship's uncontaminated underway seawater system (and T, S, and other sensors on that system), and other routine underway systems. We will use the multi-beam sonar in a "view" mode (no extra processing or processors at sea) to visualize the bottom between stations. We need centerline depth to bottom at least every few minutes underway. (The usual "CLIVAR/CO2" set-up.) |
