Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
annual service required, driven by power systems and by instrument degradation (biofouling and calibration) |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
capable, global class ship needed that can carry 4 moorings and anchors; summer months required to optimize chance of success at mooring deployments and improve safety |
