©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.EN501 is the first of six cruises that span 18 months (one every three months) for the BaRFlux or BR Particles project funded by NSF OCE-1061128. Cruise information is available from UNOLS: http://strs.unols.org/Public/diu_cruise_view.aspx?cruise_id=125182
Planned field work for the first BaRFlux cruise includes: deployment and recovery operations of one sediment trap mooring (with multiple traps on the mooring), water pumping, and box/multi-coring at mooring site on the Bermuda Rise. The mooring will consist of 5 sediment trap clusters located at 300, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 4400 meters water depth. Pumping will occur at the trap depths and some closer to the surface, and coring will occur on-site as well. The plan is to do a total of six cruises over 18 months (one every three months).
