Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We can use Jason or Alvin to recover experiments. Ideal time slot is end of 2009, ~9 to 10 mo. post deployment.
Conflicts to avoid: Revelle Chile margin UC Ship funds cruise scheduled for March 2010 (or possibly December 2009) as Levin and her student Thurber are on both [ Thurber is chief Sci].
Also need to avoid Hydrate Ridge cruises (spring/summer/fall 2010) to be scheduled for this project. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
This is a collaborative project with 4 PIs (Orphan, Rathburn, Rouse, Levin)
each will need to send scientists to process parts of experiments.
Tech - we may want to multicore at night if using ALVIN but this can be done by Rathburn without a coring tech on board |
