Summary of Field Work: |
We plan on stationing the R/V Melville for 24 h periods at 6 to 7 locations in the Santa Cruz Basin.
At each stations, a CTD and an up- and downlooking LADCP will be lowered repeatedly.
The Santa Cruz Basin is located at less than one day steaming from San Diego. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Ship's CTD with ancillary sensors rated to 2000m and rosette.
2 sets of brackets from STS for each ADCP (one each of RDI WH 300 kHz Monitor and Sentinel with 6000 m pressure cases).
If brackets for an RDI external battery case are available, we request them too. If not, we can supply brackets for the battery case.
The ADCPs are provided by Shaun Johnston. |
