Summary of Field Work: |
We will conduct blue-water diving, mid-water trawls and potentially use a fly-away ROV to collect ctenophores. This work will take place in the lee of Oahu and the big island of Hawaii. |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Support for blue-water SCUBA diving. Wet lab space for conducting metabolism experiments. |
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
We will need a 0.68 conducting cable. MBARI's miniROV will not be available for our 2017 cruise, but we expect to have it for our 2018 cruise. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
N/A |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We requested two years in succession, and want the dates to be roughly 18 months apart. So this second cruise should be in October/November 2018.
Two Conflict Dates: We have a MBARI cruise in July/August off CA. Haddock is chair of the 15th Deep-Sea Biology Symposium that will be held September 9-14, 2018 in Monterey, California.
It looks like MBARI's miniROV will be available in October for us to use, and we would like to coordinate scheduling with MBARI to be able to use the ROV on the KM. We ended up using the KOK for the first cruise (without the ROV) and that ship worked well for us. We'll need to bring extra tech support for the ROV so our science party will be bigger. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
Our midwater trawl uses a mocness type opening/closing release system. Our blue water diving will need a small boat to support the divers. We will provide technical support for the mini-ROV. |
