Funding Agencies: |
OTHER - UC Ship Funds - Funded |
Summary of Field Work: |
The goals of the cruise are to (1) demonstrate the different types of instrumentation used to study the biology of deep-sea organisms including CTD, multicore, Isaacs kid midwater, otter trawl and possibly ROV, (2) generate hydrographic data illustrating features of the deep CA margin (e.g., thermocline, oxygen minimum zone, carbon maximum zone, nepheloid or benthic boundary layers), (3) visualize and recover deep-sea animals characteristic of midwater, continental margin and methane seep environments, and (4) provide at-sea experience to students along with detailed explanations of ship operations and facilities. |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Multicorer, Otter Trawl, CTD, IKMT (midwater Trawl) and we are hoping to use the Triton ROV if funding can be obtained. |
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
Cold room, Seawater on deck, -80oC Freezer, Refrigerator, -20oC Freezer |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
We need two one day cruises, ideally separated by 1-2 weeks. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
we wish to avoid the first and last week of classes and a period in Nov. when the chief scientist will be away |
