Summary of Field Work: |
Conduct Oceanographic Sampling along Georgia Bight, from estuaries out to Gulf Stream. Water Sample (water profile), sediment (grab/box coring), phyto-, zooplankton (plankton net), bottom trawl collection. ADCP, CTD, any other available instrumentation to support research experience for undergraduate (REU) program. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
No extraordinary facility requirements are needed. Shallow water work up to 200-220m water depth is expected. This cruise is intended to be an introductory cruise for REU participants and thus basic water/sediment/biological sampling only is needed. Cruise will supplement UNOLS cruises funded by other NSF grants funded at SSU, and will include some ship of opportunity sampling for SSU graduate and undergraduate students. |

|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
R/V Savannah is local to Savannah, GA. She is fully capable platform for the REU students to learn to conduct oceanographic research. Her crew is ideal for introducing students who have not been to sea before. Great crew to work with. |
