Summary of Field Work: |
All field work will be conducted at Station ALOHA 22 45' N, 158 W where previous C-MORE work has been conducted. For this expedition, we will be conducting CTD casts, in situ experiments using drifters and floats, testing of new sampling module for long-range autonomous underwater vehicle (MiVegas project), recovery of autonomous Seaglider, and recovery of long-term sediment trap mooring. This will be the final field phase of the 10-year C-MORE project. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We request use of the R/V Kilo Moana to accomplish our goals. This will provide an adequate platform to support the 20+ person scientific party that we expect to participate in this final expedition. The Kilo Moana has been used previously for most C-MORE field operations so we are familiar with its capabilities and their crew is familiar with our needs and operations. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We need to conduct this expedition in the first half of the calendar year due to the timing of in situ experiments, the need for equipment testing, and to complete the fieldwork prior to the termination of the C-MORE project. |
