The main objectives of the French Pandora cruise (GP12 GEOTRACES section) that sailed in the South-West Pacific and through the Solomon Sea from June 27th and until August 7th (Nouméa-Nouméa, R/V Atalante) were: to provide a quasi-synoptic description of surface and subsurface circulation in the Solomon Sea and in the straits connecting that sea with the equatorial circulation, based on both hydrological and geochemical parameters; to deploy a series of moorings in the straits to obtain the temporal variability of the circulation; to evaluate water masses transformations and mixing; to document water/margins exchanges.

This cruise was supported by the LEFE program of Fr-CNRS/INSU, Fr-IRD and Fr-ANR-09-BLAN-0233 contract.
