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 Title: Education cruise for SIO 294, Biology of Fishes Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: Philip Hastings, SIO Project Institution: SIO
Project ID: 105620 Version #: 3
Date Submitted: 1/27/2017 7:29:00 PM Created By: Philip Hastings
Date Last Modified: 1/29/2018 4:51:00 PM URI Serial #: None
Funding Agencies: INST/UCSD/SIO - NONE - Funded
Summary of Field Work: One day cruise on RV Sproul to introduce students to different aspects of oceanographic collecting methods and to provide fish samples for laboratory study during shore-based part of the course. There will be a series of two otter trawls at different depths east of the Coronado banks and one midwater (IKMT) trawl west of the Coronado banks. If time permits a plankton haul will be made east of the Coronado banks.
Summary of Facility Requirements: Mid water trawl (IKMT); otter trawl; plankton net with 333 mesh net

Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations:
Preference is for a Saturday cruise as students have other class commitments during the week. Marine Collector Phil Zerofski should attend, but I have not heard from him regarding his availability.
