Project: CalCOFI 1708SR (UNOLS SR1712) on SIO RV Sally Ride
Summary: CalCOFI 1708SR sailed on SIO RV Sally Ride at 1000PDT 01Aug2017 from Nimitz Marine Facilities (MarFac) San Diego. Returning to San Diego 0930PDT 16Aug2017, RV Sally Ride was offloaded upon arrival to MarFac. All 73 scheduled stations - 65 standard stations & 8 SCCOOS 20m stations were occupied (see station map). As planned, two stations were dropped - 93.3 120 & 91.7 26.4 - to complete the scheduled stations plus mooring deployment. To maximize ship transit efficiency, saving 10+hrs, RV Sally Ride sailed north after sta 83.3 51.0 to sta 80.0 60.0. With the mooring deployment scheduled for sta 80.0 55.0, this station was scheduled after sta 76.7 49.0 & the pickup of Uwe Send's mooring team at Avila Beach. Eight in-shore stations off Santa Barbara & Ventura were occupied after sta 80.55, as we transited south - see map below for actual cruise track. Please refer to the preliminary data plots web page and data links below for preliminary data.
In addition to DIC, pH, NCOG sampling, 1708SR included oxygen stable isotope seawater samples collected on 18 stations (see map for station sampled).
