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: Coastal Land Air-Sea Interaction Observations in Monterey Bay Project Status: Submitted
Principal Investigator: HANS C. GRABER, RSMAS Project Institution: RSMAS
Project ID: 106487 Version #: 6
Date Submitted: 5/3/2019 10:12:00 AM Created By: HANS C. GRABER
Date Last Modified: 1/28/2020 8:12:00 PM URI Serial #: None
Funding Agencies: NAVY/ONR - NONE - Funded
Summary of Field Work: Updated on 28 JAN 2020:
Cruise 1: April 1, 2021 from Mare Island Dock in SF Harbor to deploy 5 ASIS buoys off Santa Cruz, CA in northern part of Monterey Bay and 3 ASIS buoys off Marina, CA in central part of Monterey Bay..

Cruise 2: June 1, 2021 starting from Mare Island Dry Dock in SF Harbor to relocate/deploy 5 ASIS buoys off Santa Cruz, CA in northern part of Monterey Bay to Marina/Elkhorn Slough CA in central part of MB. Service 3 ASIS buoys at this location.

Cruise 3: August 1, 2021 starting from Mare Island Dry Dock in SF Harbor to service recover 5 ASIS buoys and redeploy off Asilomar, CA in southern part of MB. Service 3 ASIS buoys off Marina/Elkhorn Slough CA in central part of MB.

Cruise 4: October 1, 2021 recover all 8 ASIS buoys off Marina/Elkhorn Slough CA, in central part of MB and Asilomar, CA in southern part of MB. Return to Mare Island Dry Dock in SF Harbor. Multiple transects between buoy location and SF port location will be needed.
Summary of Facility Requirements: Sally Ride will be able to deploy at least 2 possibly 3 ASIS in one sub-cruise and faster in transiting to MB. Also for the recovery 8 ASIS buoys with tether buoys will be inside Monterey Bay. Sally ride better suited to recover 3 buoys per sub-cruise (transect between MB and MIDD in SF harbor).

Stage out SF port like Mare Island Dry Dock location.
