Summary of Field Work: |
Hydrographic survey (shipboard CTD and Underway CTD) of Bay of Bengal international waters, recovery/deployment of gliders, deployment of Argo drifters and floats, short-term deployments of other drifting instrument platforms (SIO Wirewalkers, ASIS buoy); surface mooring deployments anticipated later in the field program (~2015). On some cruises, visual surveys of marine mammal populations will be conducted concurrently with other activities. |

Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Recently calibrated shipboard CTD; shipboard ADCP; R/V Revelle HDSS desirable |

 Important Info on Foreign Research Clearances
|
|
Are you or any member in your science party bringing in any science equipment items which are regulated for export by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and/or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)?
|
No |
If yes, have you applied for the necessary permits through your export control office?
|
No |
| Questions about ITAR/EAR regulations?

Requested Start Port |
Intermediate Port(s) |
Requested End Port |
|
Colombo, Sri Lanka |
None |
Trincomalee Harbor, Sri Lanka |
Explanation/justification for requested
ports and dates of intermediate stops
or to list additional port stops |
Colombo, Sri Lanka provides a convenient port for container shipments and in-port logistics, and it is reasonably close to the study area. We would like to end this leg in Trincomalee, where we would do a personnel change before starting the next leg. (All equipment for the following leg will have been loaded before this leg.) Doing the personnel change in Trincomalee would minimize transit time for this leg and the following one. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
This program (ASIRI) is a multi-investigator ONR project, with PIs from WHOI, Scripps, UW-APL, Oregon State, and other institutions. The present request is part of the pilot phase of the project, with dual purposes of surveying the region to establish a baseline for the program and testing observational approaches. |
