Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
I called Pelican ship operator and was told these dates were available. We will repeat transects done in previous years to compare possible effects of oil spill. This is NSF Rapid response cruise. We will be coordinating measurements with scientists on Oceanus and Cape Hatteras who will be working in Gulf of Mexico. We must use this window of time (Aug 31-Sept 8th) because we have research cruises in Chesapeake Bay before and after this Gulf cruise |

Short Description of Op Area
for use in schedules: |

| Description of Op Area: |
northern area of Gulf of Mexico occupying transects used by Rabalais to monitor hypoxic area; we will add surveys to the east of Mississippi toward Mobile |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
We will have scientific teams running Scanfish; fish acoustics/trawls; and water collection/processing
Because we run 24h we would like 2 ETs |

|
Explain Instrumentation or Capability
requirements that could affect choice
of ship in scheduling. |
We will be bringing a winch to operate Scanfish (we have done this before on Pelican) ; we will use trawl winch for fish midwater trawls
We will need to take net tows for plankton
We will use CTD/Niskin bottles
