PurposeResearch
ObjectivesThe cruise DY153 (also called BLT3) is the third and final cruise of the BLT Recipes project. For context, the project was initiated by the research expedition DY132 (or BLT1) in June/July 2021 and followed by the second expedition DY138 (or BLT2) between 25/09/22 – 03/11/22. The BLT Recipes project addresses a long-standing problem in Physical Oceanography about the balance of the cold and dense sinking waters at high latitudes with deep-ocean upwelling across isopycnals at lower latitudes. The BLT Recipes project seeks to test an emergent new paradigm of ocean mixing, whereby deep-ocean upwelling is primarily driven by highly localised turbulence within the bottom boundary layer instead of by breaking internal waves in the ocean interior, the later having been shown as driving downwelling of abyssal waters. To enable such testing, the BLT project undertook a multiple approach including turbulence measurements using microstructure profiler deployments, turbulence-measuring instruments moored at the seafloor and tracer release experiments using the fluorescein dye and the long-lived chemical tracer SF5CF3 in a canyon situated on the eastern slope of the Rockall Trough. The Rockall Trough is taken as a representative ocean circulation microcosm with northern and southern deep-water sources, moderate tides and a comparatively weak mesoscale flow field. The tracer and dye are well suited to respectively assess the long-term (up to O (1 year)) and short-term (up to O (3 days)) circulation, dispersion and mixing of deep waters in and beyond the canyon. The turbulence measurements highlight the processes responsible for sustaining the circulation and mixing near and above the topographic boundary and were undertaken in two ways. First, through the deployment of three types of moorings (1 moored profiler (MP) mooring, 2 Modular Acoustic Velocity Sensor (MAVS) + fast thermistor moorings, 1 thermistor chain), which targeted the detailed observation of turbulent phenomena within a few hundreds of metres from the ocean floor, along the canyon’s axis. And second, through the frequent deployment of multiple fine- and microstructure profilers (the untethered HRP and VMP-60000 and tethered FastCTD, EpsiFish and VMP-2000) along, across and around the rim of the canyon as well as the whole basin. The first expedition DY132 (or BLT1) undertook the mooring deployments, profilers, turbulence measurements as well as the dye and tracer release experiments and their subsequent measurements in the canyons. During the second expedition DY138 (or BLT2) both MAVS moorings and the MP mooring were recovered, serviced and redeployed. Measurements of the long-lived tracer 2 months after the release in and outside the canyon were also undertaken. This cruise report is for DY153 (or BLT3) and was divided into 2 legs completed between 30/07/2022 – 05/09/2022. Leg 1-DY153 (30/07/2022 –15/08/2022) was dedicated to the microstructure measurements in the BLT canyon. Leg 2-DY153 (16/08/2022 – 5/09/2022) was dedicated to measurements of the long live tracer and measurements of turbulence at numerous sites throughout the basin. During leg1-DY153 the MAVS and MP moorings (deployed during BLT2) and TCHAIN mooring (deployed during BLT1) were successfully recovered. Two more moorings – a Sonardyne ADCP lander and G1 mooring – were deployed and recovered during the DY153 cruise. The BLT canyon was surveyed by the EpsiFish instrument, consisting of 6 timeseries lasting between 22 and 41 hours, plus 1 fastCTD. Camera surveys and sediment cores were also conducted in the locations of the MAVS1 and MAVS2 mooring sites. During leg 2-DY153, measurements of t
