Rose/Liz et al.,
The SIO Isotope Use forms for CRETM-LMER Sproul cruise are in the
mail to you this morning. Is there anything else still "hanging" other
than: (1) participant list/forms; and (2) Dive Plan if we need it.
Relative to (2), I don't know if you noticed in the cruise schedule I
circulated, but we anticipate using a ROV for a few days in the middle of
the cruise. If that falls through, we will need to have a couple of
UW-certified divers take some bottom samples for us. Can you send me the
necessary forms and instructions for me to set that up if and as soon as I
might hear that the ROV won't be available?
Thanks,
Si

Bob/Rose,
Yes, indeed, the rumor is true; we have been informed by NSF-DEB that the
Columbia River LMER grant will be continuing, with considerable UNOLS
ship time requests in 1995-1999! And, as in 1990-1992, these are joint
CRETM-LMER cruises, with the larger vessel (Sproul) being responsible for
most of the geochemistry, productivity, microbiology, consumer ecology, etc.
investigations and the smaller, roving (Barnes) vessel the physics
(principally ADCP) investigations.
In checking on your question, there are two things to note:
(1) the UNOLS Ship Request forms had typos on the second two pages for
the R/V Sproul requests, where R/V Sproul should have been substituted
for the R/V Barnes; we started out typing the Barnes request forms and
didn't replace the later two pages for the Sproul requests; and,
(2) there IS a difference in the requests because the physics portion of
the joint cruises will have some front-/back-end work to do that won't
overlap with the Sproul. However, the overlap timing will be quite
important because both ships need to "capture" particular tide series.
The following is the actual request days and dates as we formulated it
for the proposal:
Year Ship Days(Science) Preferred Dates Alternate Dates
1995 R/V Sproul 21 5/1-5/30 5/1-6/15
R/V Barnes 30 5/1-5/30 5/1-6/15
1996 R/V Sproul 30 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
R/V Barnes 30 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
1997 R/V Sproul 15 2/1-2/16 2/1-3/31
R/V Barnes 15 2/1-1/16 2/1-3/31
R/V Sproul 15 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
R/V Barnes 30 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
R/V Sproul 15 9/15-9/30 9/15-10/30
R/V Barnes 15 9/15-9/30 9/15-10/30
1998 R/V Sproul 15 1/5-1/20 1/5-2/28
R/V Barnes 15 1/5-1/20 1/5-1/28
R/V Sproul 15 5/1-5/30 5/1-6/15
R/V Barnes 30 5/1-5/30 5/1-6/15
1999 R/V Sproul 21 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
R/V Barnes 30 7/1-7/30 7/1-8/31
During these time windows, the Sproul time would usually be in the middle
of the time window for the Barnes, e.g., the Barnes would start one week
before and end one week after a 30-day/15-day cruise period for the
Barnes and Sproul, respectively. The preferred/requested time windows
indicate in all cases that we do not want to start earlier than the first
date, but could usually slip into the later dates. If at all feasible,
we would like to firm up scheduling of the first several years according
to the tide sequences, for which David Jay (see e-mail address
above) should be able to provide you firm (predicted) dates upon request.
Please let us know what your timing is for scheduling all years'
cruises, but certainly the 1995, of course. We will both (Simenstad and
Jay) come down to talk specifics about the Barnes scheduling at your
first opportunity, Bob. And, Rose, you can give me a call/e-mail message
at any time; I'll be around most of this month, except for ~21-29th.
