Summary of Field Work: |
Deployment of 10 moorings on the inner shelf near Duck NC and CTD/ADCP surveys of the inner shelf |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will be using the A Frame to deploy moorings. We will also be mounting an ADCP to the side of the ship to obtain near-surface current meter measurements and will need to discuss details of this set-up with the ship's engineers. |

Repeating Cruise?
(within same year) |
Yes |
Interval: |

|
Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
We will be deploying moorings in the first cruise and recovering the moorings during the second cruise. The cruises will also perform CTD surveys of the inner shelf off of North Carolina between the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay and Cape Hatteras |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
These dates provide the most likely conditions to capture coastally trapped currents due to the seasonality of the winds and river discharge |
