Summary of Field Work: |
Field work will entail a cruise transect off the New England Coast to examine the nutrient metabolism of phytoplankton. The cruise track will run from Martha's Vineyard to the Bermuda Atlantic Times Series station (BATS, 31 deg 40'N, 64 deg 10'W). We will stop at nine stations along the transect (3 on the shelf, 3 in the Gulf Stream and 3 in the Sargasso). Each station will have a duration of 18-24 hrs. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will need a CTD/rosette, underway flowing seawater and underway fluorometry (along with remaining, standard underway measurements). We also need several square meters of deck space for 4 outdoor, flowing seawater incubators that are 1m x 1m (we will bring these on board). |

Dates to Avoid: |
We aim to sample during the spring bloom across a wide range of habitats and thus have a fairly narrow departure window |

Narragansett, RI, USA |
Explanation/justification for requested
ports and dates of intermediate stops
or to list additional port stops |
We request the same ending and starting ports for two reasons. One, we did not budget travel or shipping for this cruise, under the assumption that the RV Endeavor could be used for the cruise. Two, we will likely sample water from both the outgoing and return legs of the cruise. |
