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 estuary, examining nutrient distributions and critical processes from the river inputs through to the North Sea in subtidal sediments and the overlying water.
2. To measure factors affecting benthic nutrient recycling in subtidal sediments in the North Sea, in collaboration with the Netherlands Benthic Links and Sinks (BELS) programme.
3. To collect, test and use a new box corer from Den Helder, Netherlands.
4. To conduct trials of a new Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler. Not attempted due to ADCP not realeased by manufacturer in time for the trial.
5. To deliver samples for MAST 051 programme to Den Helder (for attention of Rijkwaterstaat).
