Projected Science Plan: The plan is to conduct two, 5-day quasi-lagrangian time-series stations at 65W, one north of the Gulf Stream and one south of the Gulf Stream. The daily cruise track will be centered around following free-floating sediment net traps arrays. The traps will be retrieved and re-deployed on 24 hour intervals (generally beginning at day break). CTD casts, primarily in the upper 250 meters, will be done in the afternoons, with McLane pumps deployed overnight.
This cruise is funded by NSF OCE-1031143.
