Summary of Field Work: |
Summary of Field Work: Characterization of foraminiferal assemblages (ecology) and geochemistry in the Northeast Pacific Ocean
This work will consist of the deployment (and twice annual maintenance) of two sediment traps, and the collection of water column samples (plankton tow sampling, CTD casts with rosette) to establish the ecology and geochemistry of foraminifera in the eastern North Pacific Ocean. Water column and plankton tow sampling would occur near the Newport Hydrographic Line and would include 2 days of water column sampling and 5 days (total) shipboard experiments. |
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Summary of Facility Requirements: We will need a CTD/rosette, 0.322 EM wire for [plankton towing), sufficient deck space and A-frame for mooring deployments/recoveries, -20°C and -80°C freezers, 4°C fridge, and wet/dry lab space for water circulators and sample processing. |

Optimum Start Date:
|
9/10/2021 |
Dates to Avoid: |
After mid-october, seas become too rough to deploy, recover, and redeploy sediment traps, so work should be done prior to mid-late October |

# of Cruises: |
|
|
Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
We will repeat the cruise every 6 months (Spring and Fall) for the duration of the proposal to recover and redeploy sediment traps, collect samples, and perform ship board experiments. |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
Chosen dates provide opportunity to deploy/recover traps every 6 months in the spring and fall. |
