|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
This request is deferred from 2009 because the RVSJ will be in the Pacific.
The science is tied to the RVSJ because HBOI has difficult-to-obtain permits from Bahamas to collect and perform manipulative research on corals on Bahamian reefs. Preference for May for long-term diving in warmer water. Grant expires in June. |
