Cruise identifier

CIR10/90

Cruise period

1990-10-29 — 1990-11-16

Status

Completed

Port of departure

Lowestoft, United Kingdom

Port of return

Lowestoft, United Kingdom

Objectives

1. To identify and quantify the fate of river-borne nutrients entering the Wash and Humber Estuaries, examine the nutrient distributions and critical processes from the river inputs through to the North Sea in sub-tidal and inter-tidal sediments and the overlying waters.
2. To study the sheer stresses and current spectra near the sea-bed over a muddy sand and a sandy site.
3. To work 25h anchor stations measuring suspended load and particle size distributions over complete tidal cycles.
4. To examine settling velocities near the sea bed using QUISSET tube.
5. To undertake a trial deployment of the Quadrapod and a selection of ancillary sensors (supplied by VIMS, USA).
