Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | RV Cape Hatteras cruise CH0708 |
|---|---|
| Short name | CH0708 |
| Objectives and Narrative | Western Boundary Time Series cruise (AB0809). A hydrographic survey consisting of a repeat LADCP/CTD/rosette section in the west-ern North Atlantic was carried out in September-October 2008. 17 LADCP/CTD/Rosette stations were occupied. Water samples (up to 23 for each station) and CTD data were collected on each cast to within 20m of the bottom. Salinity and dissolved oxygen samples were analysed from the majority of bottles sampled on the rosette. IES operations were conducted at three sties, including recovery, deployment and telemetry. |
