Summary of Field Work: |
The Hadal Water Column Profiler is a multidisciplinary 11km-rated instrument currently under development at the University of Hawaii. It will measure temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbulent microstructure, horizontal current velocity, 200 kHz bioacoustics, and video. In addition it can capture eleven 150 ml water samples.
The requested ship time is for initial at-sea testing of final profiler. This work will be conducted in approximately 4000m water depth close to Hawaii. Prior to this work the individual and integrated systems will be tested in the lab, individual components pressure tested to 11km, and the final assembled profiler pressure tested to 6km. The at-sea testing will be used to confirm the operation / identify issues with the the profiler and its subsystems. Additionally, the data collected will be used to develop data processing and data management software. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We will require a vessel with a high A-frame, sufficient to launch and recover the instrument, a CTD/rosette, and a hull-mounted ADCP. |
