Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | FRV Scotia (748S) cruise 1900S |
|---|---|
| Short name | 1900S |
| Objectives and Narrative |
1. To conduct routine hydrographic sampling at stations along the standard JONSIS, Fair Isle-Munken and Nolso-Flugga survey lines.
2. To conduct plankton and hydrographic sampling with ARIES in the Faroe Shetland Channel. 3. To conduct plankton and hydrographic sampling with ARIES at stations towards Rockall and the Iceland Basin. 4. To collect data on the abundance of cetaceans along the cruise track using towed hydrophone arrays. |
