Cruise Inventory Information

Long name RRS Discovery (74E3) cruise D221
Short name D221
Objectives and Narrative First leg: 11/06/1996 - 02/07/1996, Second Leg: 02/07/1996 - 23/07/1996
The cruise was divided into 2 legs with a mid-cruise port call being made at Reykjavik to allow a changeover of part of the scientific company and replenishment of the ship's freshwater supply.

Three specific objectives were encompassed within the overall objectives of the cruise:
(i) To obtain an eight day time series of integrated physical, biological and chemical data in Lagrangian mode at a location associated with a distinct mesoscale eddy feature in the vicinity of 60deg N 20deg W. There was a requirement that the time series observations at this location be preceded and succeeded by a large scale physical box survey centred around the time series site.
(ii) To obtain a time series of data in Lagrangian mode comparable to that derived for Objective (i) over a minimum of seven days at a station adjacent to 35deg N 20deg W.
(iii) To derive a suite of data comparable to that in Objective (i) at a series of stations along a transect between approximately 60deg N 20deg W and 35deg N 20deg W.
For all three objectives, it was a requirement that the data sets to be obtained should, as far as possible, be compatible with the needs and objectives of the PRIME modelling community and the individual PRIME cruise participants, as outlined in the original ship-time proposal and subsequently developed at cruise planning meetings and at the individual project level.
The objectives relating to the PRIME modelling community were endorsed at a meeting of the community on 3 June 1996, with a copy of the endorsement being sent to the PSO on RRS Discovery on 6 June 1996.
