Summary of Field Work: |
This fieldwork will quantify the spatial distribution of the internal wave field and mixing inside and nearby an eddy in the western subtropical pacific. This will be done by: (1) surveying a chosen eddy in a butterfly pattern using the HDSS sonar. (2) Conducting two 48 hr CTD 'yo-yo' stations while moving the ship very slowly along with the eddy. One station will be at the center and one will be in exterior of the eddy. (2) Transect across the eddy, doing periodic CTD casts. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will require 24 hr CTD operations for a portion of the field work, and therefore we will need 24 hr winch and technician assistance. We will also be using the HDSS sonar. |
