Summary of Field Work: |
Deployment of six current meter and pressure sensor-equipped inverted echo sounders (CPIES) off the shelf near Cape Hatteras, with a second cruise 9 months later to turn-around all but the CPIES, and a third cruise 9 months after that to recover all instrumentation. This work requires the capability to perform full-water column CTD casts in up to 4500m water. Will also deploy two meteorological Buoys with co-located bottom pods with ADCP on the shelf (30m isobath) and four slope mooring with bottom mounted ADCPs and CTDs (120m isobath). Possible Spray glider deployment and/or recovery. Project focuses on variability and dynamics of shelf water export in the vicinity of Cape Hatteras. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Capable of deploying CPIES and performing full-depth CTD cast in 4500 m depth water. Will require A-frame for larger components, the meteorological buoys in particular. Dynamic positioning is advantageous for CPIES placement. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
3/23/2017 |
Dates to Avoid: |
Wish to deploy just before the expected transition to spring on the shelf, so can't go any later, and any earlier backs up into late winter. |

|
Are you or any member in your science party bringing in any science equipment items which are regulated for export by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and/or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)?
|
No |
If yes, have you applied for the necessary permits through your export control office?

Requested Start Port |
Intermediate Port(s) |
Requested End Port |

Norfolk, VA, USA |
Explanation/justification for requested
ports and dates of intermediate stops
or to list additional port stops |
Norfolk is nearest major port, easy access for science parties from North Carolina and Massachusetts, colleagues at ODU are available to provide local logistical support. With several large objects to deploy, it may be necessary to return to port (Norfolk) once during this cruise to load a second round of gear, if it all doesn't fit the first time. |

Explain Instrumentation or Capability
requirements that could affect choice
of ship in scheduling. |
Total deck or lab space needed to gear to be deployed is approximately 55m^2 plus free space to get them in place for A-frame use. Dynamic positioning is helpful for CPIES deployment.
