Summary of Field Work: |
We will be use half our wire time collecting animals and half our wire time conducting optical measurements. We will collecting animals from the midwater using a Tucker trawl system, and via scuba diving. Optical measurements will be via CTD and custom-built photometers provided by the collaborators. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will require an A-frame and winch with data-conducting cable for midwater trawling operations. Optical instruments will be deployed with J-frame or custom-built mounts installed on the ship's rail. A CTD may be provided by the project's collaborators, but we may also need to use the ship's instrument. Small boat operations will be required for scuba-based animal collections, and we will need a dive tank compressor for scuba operations. |

Optimum Start Date:

Dates to Avoid: |
We originally planned this cruise for November 2011 but a miscommunication with ONR prevented us from getting on the schedule for that date. If it is becomes possible to schedule this in November 2011, that is optimal. If not, then Summer 2012 is the next best option. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
The purpose of this cruise is to provide collaborative data between three teams of biologists and physical oceanographers. We will require 9 science berths for each of the three teams, in addition to two resident technicians, one to assist with biology operations, and another to assist with optical/physical oceanography operations. |
