1 Cruise Plan, Alford IWISE leg, June 10-20, 2011 version 2; dated 5/20/2011 Overview/Objectives The following is the updated cruise plan for the mooring deployment leg (6/10-6/20) of the Internal Waves in Straits Experiment (IWISE) project. We will be working between Taiwan and the Philippines (Figure 1). Our general plan is to deploy moorings, gliders and PIES, recover 4 PIES that were previously deployed, and then to use any time remaining to work around the moorings with a series of 36-hour-long yo-yo CTD/lowered ADCP stations while they profile P7 P lat 20.5 N1 N2 MPN P8 P10 A1 P P9 P MPS S7S6 S lon 3000 Figure 1: Broad view of our work area and moorings to be deployed. The 8 moorings are in red; the 7 PIES are in yellow. Not shown are m thermistor chain moorings (T1-T4) to be deployed near N2. Selected Philippines 12-nm limits are shown. Our objectives are Deploy a total of 12 moorings and 7 PIES at the locations shown (Figure 1). All assets will be recovered at a later date (most from the Alford IWISE leg on Revelle, 8/4/2011-8/11/2011. Recover four PIES that we deployed last summer (locations near P10, P11, 12 and P13). 1
2 Deploy two gliders near N1. Use remainder of time doing 36-hour yo-yo CTD stations while holding station at locations TBD, probably near A1. Table 1: IWISE 2011 Moorings. All positions are given in decimal degrees. After deployment, please maintain 0.25 nm radius from all moorings.

He has agreed to this plan, but of course if he winds up needing the day we will wait. We ll complete the loadout on 6/8 and 6/9. We have two 40 containers and two 20 containers that should be there by that time, as well as a few smaller air shipments. Our basic plan is to unload the containers onto the dock and begin prepping instruments and spheres dockside while the ship begins to crane the other gear on board. We ll install all instruments into our syntactic spheres prior to loading since accessing them will be more difficult on deck. Deck Plan The proposed deck plan is shown in Figure 2. Notably, there will be about floats, and 12 anchor stacks (4-5 wheels each). Also, in addition to the TSE winch we will have a traction winch on 2
3 loan from R/V Wecoma. The traction winch will be our primary winch for the deployments, with the TSE as a backup. The two 20 vans on the main deck will house glass floats for our moorings and deck storage. We ll be primarily based in the main lab. Gear Profiling moorings We will deploy seven profiling moorings (Figure 1, red), which consist of one or two crawlers making repeated traverses of a taut vertical wire with two subsurface floats (one steel, one syntactic foam) for flotation. These (and all moorings deployed on the cruise) are anchor last deployments. We will be using a traction winch on loan from OSU/Wecoma, and will launch the anchors with the trawl wire. A sample mooring diagram is given in Figure 3. T-chain moorings Four 1000-m-long subsurface T-chain moorings will be deployed in the vicinity of N2. See Figure 4 for a diagram. The others are nearly identical. Inverted Echo Sounder with Pressure (PIES) Seven PIES (Figure 5) will be deployed at the locations shown (Figure 1, yellow). These are very simple deployments. We will simply lower them over the side to the waterline and release them with a mechanical release. They then sink to the bottom, which takes about an hour. We will also recover four PIES that we deployed last summer (locations near P10, P11, 12 and P13). Stablemoor mooring Mooring A-1 features a stablemoor by Flotec, a 16-foot-long syntactic torpedo-shaped float (Figure 6). Other than its size which will require care in deployment, and the heavy weight of the anchor (7800#), it is a standard mooring. Figure 7 shows the mooring diagram. Gliders Two gliders will be launched during our cruise near N1. These are very simple procedures and should only take an hour or so. CTD/lowered ADCP stations After the deployments (time allowing) we plan to conduct several continuous 36-hour yoyo time series, as well as others to be determined based on the results of these initial ones. Please note we would like to do these, conditions permitting, within 10 of the bottom. At times when working on a slope this depth will be deeper than the water depth beneath the ship. We would like to slow to 30 m/minute 100 m above the bottom, and continue to 10 meters above the bottom at this speed and not slower. We want to work with the restechs to come up with a compromise that will ensure the safety of the rosette and allow us to accomplish our science goals, which require repeated measurements close to the bottom. 3
4 The CTD will be fitted with a lowered ADCP system. We plan on using the ship s brackets (the restech is already aware of this) and upward and downward 300-KHz workhorse ADCP s and a battery pack to the CTD frame. We will also likely attach a vane to allow special microstructure sensors on the package to face the flow past the cage as we did last August in the pilot (see Figure 8). We plan to use the SIO serial uplink CTD to send ADCP data up the wire, with the normal system as a backup. Timeline The primary goal is to get the moorings in the water, so we will work as quickly as safely possible. We ll rely on Meghan to tell us when we are working her too hard! A strawman order of events assuming all deployments go smoothly is given below. If things go slower than this then the 3.75 days of CTD yoyo work will be reduced. Table 2: Timeline.
