|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
The F. G. Walton Smith is ideal for making our air-sea flux observations and we have made extensive investments in hardware that is specialized for use on this vessel. It is also the most convenient vessel for staging as it is our home institution vessel. |
