Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | RRS Challenger (74CH) cruise CH36 |
|---|---|
| Short name | CH36 |
| Objectives and Narrative |
Physical Oceanography (second in a series of process cruises). This was the second process study cruise of the North Sea Project, involving:
The deployment of a SEASOAR system. A CTD survey with the aim of broadly mapping the Flamborough Head frontal system. Once the broad survey was complete, a section was singled out for more intensive survey. Deployment of drifting buoys. |
