Summary of Field Work: |
A newly developed modular autonomous biosampler system has been developed on this NSF project and this work will seek to test it in deep water off the shelf break. We need to get offshore preferably somewhere off Delaware Bay where we can lower the sampler on a powered cable to depths of between 2000-3000 m to test the deep water capability of the system. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will need wire winch to lower the unit and provide power through a bulkhead connector possibly through the CTD frame. AUV/ROV deck van for control setup of the biosampler on the deck. We have previously launched the biosampler from the R/V Hugh R. Sharp for a preliminary shallow water test so the ship and crew are familiar with the system. What is needed is capacity for deep water deployment. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
As the unit is being tested and developed at our Lewes campus it would be most practical to mobilize directly there though we could meet the ship at another port if needed. Our requirement is for deep water so the precise location is flexible. |
