COR4/88

Cruise period

1988-07-07 — 1988-07-20

Status

Completed

Port of departure

Lowestoft, United Kingdom

Port of return

Lowestoft, United Kingdom

Objectives

1. To collect water and sediment samples for a study of scavenging using U/Th disequilibrium data.
2. To work a series of 25 anchor stations (CTD and DRCM) at four locations along the coast, with the KBVR deployed. Suspended load and particle size measurements will be made over the tidal cycle at 10m intervals above the bed.
3. To investigate settling velocity near the sea bed using QUISSET (U. Cambridge).
4. To use the diving team at the final anchor station to measure bed roughness using an acoustic backscatter probe.
5. To deploy the NBVR for recovery in September. The NBVR was not deployed for a long period due to difficulties in locating a suitable substrate.
6. To work a grid of CTD stations around the moorings E-M launched by RV Cirolana as part of the Flamborough Front Experiment.
7. To collect samples of plankton for a study of Nephrops larvae (for J Nichols).
