Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
The proposed cruises are intended to augment presently funded cruises to "Line W" across the New England continental slope and Gulf Stream led by WHOI PI J. Toole (Line W: A Sustained Measurement Program Sampling the North Atlantic Deep Western Boundary Current and Gulf Stream at 39°N”; OCE- 0726720). This extra science day will allow for recovery and redeployment of a bottom tethered mooring with sediment traps and McLane moored profilers. The Oceanus is requested as this is the ship identified for the Toole physical oceanography project. Scheduling of the ancillary science day is tied to the schedule for the Toole cruises in 2009 and 2011. |
