Summary of Field Work: |
Installation of 2 moorings at the Slope - Base PN1A site, Juan de Fuca Plate |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Use of the R/V Thomas G. Thompson to meet deck layout and berthing requirements |
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
Transmission of live video from ship to shore-shore. Use of robotic vehicle with heavy lift (4,000 lbs) capabilities and ability to install extension cables, secondary nodes, and instruments. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
7/3/2014 |
Dates to Avoid: |
May 2013 because of the weather window. Extensive ROV work laying cable deploying instruments (moorings) requires optimal weather window. Axial Seamount mooring installation planned (June 2014) prior to this cruise. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
This assumes that the initial mobilization will occur at the University of Washington (requires 3 days) and that this cruise will be on the R/V Thompson. it also assumes the cruise will end in Newport Oregon and be back to back with one of the other 2 RSN cruises in 2014. The cruise will be deploying four moorings and will need to come into Newport Oregon ~ mid cruise to mobilize additional gear for deployment, requiring approximately 2 days in Newport for this mobilization. It also assumes that the cruise will end in Newport for mobilization of the follow-on Axial mooring deployment. |
