Summary of Field Work: |
The goal of the cruise is to sample colonies of the nitrogen fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium. To do this we will occupy stations across the western subtropical and tropical North Atlantic. We will take samples by net tow and CTD. The samples we collected will be used in on-deck incubations experiments, and subjected to on-board chemical analysis. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
CTD/rosette, radioisotope van, abundant unshaded deck space for our on-deck incubators. |

requirements that could affect choice
of ship in scheduling. |
We we will be using large incubators, so unshaded deck space is a high priority. We will also need to ship a container.
