Summary of Field Work: |
This will be a hydrography research cruise in the region of the Western North Pacific off Japan. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Large Ship, CTD Rosette
We request nutrient analysis from ODF at Scripps Institute of Oceanography.
We request support for salinity analysis from the University of Washington including a technician and four bottles of IAPSO seawater each day.
We request standardization of both T,S,pressure sensors before and after the cruise. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
Our first preference is for the RV Thompson because the University of Washington is offering 12 days of ship time on this vessel to involve student teaching.
Another large ship can be used if the Thompson is not in the area. In this case we request 22 days of ship time. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
3/1/2013 |
Dates to Avoid: |
We were hoping for late 2012, but the Thompson is not available. Early 2013 is OK, but if it gets much later than mid 2013 the project will be getting old. |

Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
Our first priority is for this cruise to be a Student Cruise on board the RV Thompson. The University has offered 12 days of Ship time for teaching purposes. Thus, we request 10 days from NSF.
If for some reason the Thompson cannot be in the NW Pacific in 2013 then we request 22 days of another large ship to carry out the research. |
