Summary of Field Work: |
We propose sampling water and plankton offshore from 4 shore-based sites to better understand the role of upwelled versus regenerated nitrogen. we will collect water and plankton for stable isotope analysis and nutrient analysis. We will also measure seawater parameters including Temp, Sal, DO, chl, and pH. We will sample 1-2 km offshore from Tatoosh Island, Second Beach, Slip Point, and Observatory Point; these 4 stations were established in 2010 and we will continue to sample to understand annual variation and the role of variation in upwelling regime. We will have 1 full day of sampling in each of 3 months (jun, jul and aug) at these stations. 2 Days of mobilization are required for each sampling day. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We request the R/V Barnes, the 12 bottle CTD rosette and associated instrumentation, a marine technician, and the smaller rosette when possible. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
One of these 3 cruise dates will involve a full day of sampling off Tatoosh Island (rather than all 4 stations) to better characterize deeper water at the mouth of the Strait. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
6/25/2012 |
Dates to Avoid: |
I avoid all minus low tides for 2 reasons:
excessive current in and out of strait and because I need to work the shore-based stations |

Repeating Cruise?
(within same year) |
Yes |
Interval: |
1 month |
# of Cruises: |
3 |
|
|
Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
I need to sample the seasonal changes and thus request a Jun, Jul and an Aug cruise.
Each cruise is 3 days: 1 day of travel to station, 1 day of working on station, 1 day of travel back to Seattle. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
For Jun cruise: 15 through 17 Jun OR 25- 30th Jun
For Jul cruise: 9-15 Jul OR 26-29 Jul
For Aug cruise: 13-15 Aug OR 21-23 Aug
I recognize that there are already conflicts with scheduled cruises here and will try to be flexible. |
