Ship Request

STR Management has moved to MFP

The US Academic Research Fleet is moving to Marine Facilities Planning (MFP) for scheduling initially and eventually cruise planning.

For all NEW or RESUBMITTED Projects/Ship Time Requests, go to https://mfp.us and create a new SME. Some STRs for projects starting in 2022 and beyond have already been moved to Marine Facilities Planning (mfp.us). Check your MFP Science Portal for any projects that might already be moved. If you need to make edits to projects that begin in 2022 and beyond, please contact mfp@unols.org for assistance. Be sure to indicate the Project and STR IDs that you would like to edit. For more information on getting into MFP, see the More Information button below.

  Project Information  
Project Title: The HOT profiler Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: Matthew H. Alford, SIO Project Institution: UW_APL
Project ID: 100907 Version #: 9
Date Submitted: 4/12/2007 7:06:00 PM Created By: Matthew H. Alford
Date Last Modified: 1/17/2012 9:30:00 AM URI Serial #: 20060801175548HM
Funding Agencies: NSF/OCE/OTIC - 0647971 - Funded
Summary of Field Work: two 7-day cruises and one four-day cruise (incl. transits) to deploy/recover/service new mooring at station ALOHA; can piggyback with HOT cruises when possible

Three cruises are requested: 1) deploy mooring, 2) service mooring, 3) recover mooring. Cruises 1) and 3) should be one year apart, but they can slide together 1 month forward or back.

Will deploy a subsurface tautline mooring in ~4700 m of water near the present ALOHA mooring. Mooring winch or the like requested.

Description of Repeating cruise requirements:
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations:
Updating STR post KM hull issues and post discussion with Kandy Binkley. This will be the new HOT profiler deploy cruise; need one additional cruise in December to recover it. This cruise can be 5 total days; recovery can be 4.
