Summary of Field Work: |
Here we propose a ten day cruise on the R/V Sally Ride, for the November-December 2019 time slot (date flexible), to perform a detailed survey of four seamounts on the Fieberling-Guadalupe Seamount Chain. Currently, this chain off the coast of southern California has limited dredge samples and surveys that cannot resolve whether its volcanism is derived from a hotspot source or due to tectonic processes. We have planned 4 total days of transit time and 6 days on site to preform a detailed bathymetric and magnetic survey along with several dredges. This will help to determine the temporal evolution of the chain. This cruise will be offered as a class aimed at geoscience (GS) graduate students but open to all curricular groups. The academic goal is to learn data collection and analysis at sea, and will culminate in a peer-reviewed paper written by the students. |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Our planned survey would require use of the dredge equipment and sampling gear, magnetometer, multibeam, and 1 dredge technician. If we have 2 dredge technicians we would be able to run 24 hour operations. We also require sufficient deck space for dredge operations and sample storage. |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
No repeat cruise is needed. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We are requesting the R/V Sally Ride through UC ship funds for its scheduled time in port in San Diego from November/December 2019. The Sally Ride is the only available ship that can do dredge operations this far offshore, but our scheduled time is flexible. |
