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.

  Oregon vibracoring  -  2018  -  Roger Revelle  
  Project Information  
Project Title: Archaeological resources and submerged landscapes off the central Oregon coast Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: Boe Derosier, SIO Project Institution: SIO
Project ID: 106012 Version #: 3
Date Submitted: 1/16/2018 6:04:00 PM Created By: Jillian Maloney
Date Last Modified: 2/8/2018 4:52:00 AM URI Serial #: None
Funding Agencies: INST/UCSD/SIO - NONE - Funded
Summary of Field Work: We plan to collect 16 vibracores using Coastal Carolina University’s vibracore. The cores are 10 m in length and 4” diameter. The coring equipment will be operated by students and faculty advisors in cooperation with shipboard marine technicians, the captain, and crew. The instrument will be deployed from the A-frame and lowered to the seafloor. Once on the seafloor, the vibrating motors will be engaged, allowing the inner core-tube and liner to sink into the sediments. For recovery, the core-tube will first be pulled from the seafloor using the hydraulics built into the vibracore system (without the use of the winch). Once the core-tube has been released from the seafloor, the winch will be used to pull the entire system back to the surface and aboard the vessel. After each recovery, the core-tube liner, now filled with sediment, will be removed and divided into 1.5 m sections, labeled, capped, and stored on the vessel. A new liner will be inserted into the core-tube and the instrument will be prepared for re-deployment.
Summary of Facility Requirements: The R/V Revelle is requested. We will work with the ship's crew to identify deployment and recovery options for the vibracore system.
