Ship Request

STR Management has moved to MFP

The US Academic Research Fleet is moving to Marine Facilities Planning (MFP) for scheduling initially and eventually cruise planning.

For all NEW or RESUBMITTED Projects/Ship Time Requests, go to https://mfp.us and create a new SME. Some STRs for projects starting in 2022 and beyond have already been moved to Marine Facilities Planning (mfp.us). Check your MFP Science Portal for any projects that might already be moved. If you need to make edits to projects that begin in 2022 and beyond, please contact mfp@unols.org for assistance. Be sure to indicate the Project and STR IDs that you would like to edit. For more information on getting into MFP, see the More Information button below.

  Project Information  
Project Title: Collaborative Research: Assessing the role of compound-specific phosphorus hydrolase transformations in the marine phosphorus cycle Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: Julia Diaz, SIO Project Institution: Skidaway
Project ID: 105699 Version #: 1
Date Submitted: 2/13/2017 10:49:00 AM Created By: Julia Diaz
Date Last Modified: 6/8/2017 1:31:00 PM URI Serial #: None
Funding Agencies: NSF/OCE/CO - 1736967 - Funded
Summary of Field Work: Examining the degradation and biological utilization of specific dissolved organic phosphorus compounds to assess their relative role in the production of phosphate, in satisfying community and microbial group-specific P demand, and supporting primary productivity.

This project consists of one cruise off the coast of Georgia, USA, within the South Atlantic Bight. Ideally, this work would occur during spring (March-April) 2019, when the coastal frontal zone (~25 km from shore) has been observed to occur at its maximum extent. Scientific operations will occur at three stations: one on the coastal side of the frontal zone, one within the front, and one on the oceanic side. A total of 9 science days is requested to allow sampling at each station and for the 5-day incubations that will occur at one station.
Summary of Facility Requirements: Required equipment includes CTD/rosette, on-deck incubator, radio-isotope van, and wet- and dry-lab space.

or to list additional port stops
The start and end port is the R/V Savannah home port at the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography. I couldn't find this on the list, so I selected the closest option available.
