Summary of Field Work: |
Characterization of benthic boundary layer dynamics and biogeochemical fluxes at 30 and 80 m on the Oregon shelf using in situ eddy covariance (EC) methods and core incubations.
2017: Four 2-day Summer Bloom Variability cruises to allow one each EC lander deployments of ~24 h at 30 and 80 m locations adjacent to the Newport Hydrographic line, and to allow accompanying CTD cast and coring operations. These cruises will be timed 3-4 weeks apart throughout the summer upwelling season.
2017-2018: Three 4-day Winter Variability cruises –lengthened to factor in likely weather issues - to allow EC lander deployments of ~24 h at 30 and 80 m locations on the NH line, with accompanying CTD cast and coring operations. These cruises will be timed 6-7 weeks apart throughout the winter downwelling season.
2018-2019: Four 5-day Seasonal Variability cruises timed 3 months apart to allow two each EC lander deployments of ~24 h at 30 and 80 m locations on the NH line, with accompanying CTD cast and coring operations. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Regional or Intermediate Class Research Vessel with CTD/rosette, coring winch, crane and crutch, stern A-frame. Deck space for two lander systems that will be deployed and recovered in the style of a mooring. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
Wet lab for water sample filtering and refrigerator large enough to incubate sediment cores. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
This would be first of 3 repeat cruises. However, the second and third would occur in 2018 so are requested separately. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
MOB and DEMOB should be possible in about 0.5 days each if we use Oceanus because we know this ship and crew and they are familiar with our requirements. |
