Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
We will be recovering bone/wood lander moorings and collecting multiple core samples at offshore at depths of 1500-3000 m. We will require 12KHZ pinger and bottom profiling support collect multiple cores. |

Explain Instrumentation or Capability
requirements that could affect choice
of ship in scheduling. |
Ability to collect multiple cores using trawl winch through stern A-frame. We will require
support of pingers and 12 KHZ bottom profiling to select stations and collect multiple
cores. We will also require a functional cold room (2-4 C) for use during the cruise.
