Summary of Field Work: |
multibeam and seismic (3.5 kHz) surveying of seafloor to identify targets for piston, gravity, and mutlicoring between Woods Hole, MA and Azores |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
need global or ocean class vessel |
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
This cruise is part of a collaboration with a German colleague. Dr. Janne Repschlager is expecting to sail as part of my scientific party on the cruise I have proposed (and has been recommended for funding) and meanwhile she has been funded by the German agency for a complementary cruise on their R/V Merian. She wants to work (survey and core) around Azores including in waters on the west flank of the Mid Atlantic Ridge (MAR) down to ~3 km. I am invited on her cruise, as part of our collaboration. My cruise will start coring in water as deep as we can find good sediment (>5km) and we will work west up the MAR coring and surveying to 3 km. This way, between the two projects we will have a complete collection of cores from MAR (~2 km) down to > 5km for paleoenvironmental reconstructions. Janne says our collaboration was partly responsible for her getting funded, so it will be important that R/Vs Armstrong and Merian have complementary schedules. |
