Summary of Field Work: |
Ship-board measurements (towed body, ADCP), short drifter deployments, glider launch/recovery designed to look at wind-generated near-inertial internal waves in the North Atlantic, in the vicinity of Greenland/Iceland. This is being submitted per request of our ONR program manager, Dr. Terri Paluszkiewicz. This is a new DRI that will involve fieldwork over the next several years, but she would like the potential for a "pilot" experiment in spring 2018. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
5/1/2018 |
Dates to Avoid: |
We would like May fieldwork, as earlier sprnig conditions are likely to be too rough for the proposed work, but by summer the storms we hope to study will be too infrequent. We are coordinating with a late spring 2018 target proposal for a different (also ONR) project, CALPYSO, submitted by Dr. Amala Mahadevan. |

Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We are looking at storm generated internal waves, which makes spring the ideal choice. The target area is south of the Iceland/Greenland region, in the winter storm track. However, February or earlier is likely to be too rough for the proposed work, hence the March/April suggestion. We are coordinating this request with one for another ONR project, CALPYSO, submitted by Dr. Amala Mahadevan; they have requested May 2018. |
