SBI PHASE 2 - 2004 FIELD PLANNING MEETING USCG
Base, Seattle, Washington December 3-5, 2003
The goal of this meeting is to plan the 2004
process and mooring field cruises in the context
of recent SBI field results. Please bring summary
science slides to support planning for the final
field cruises of SBI Phase 2. We will have an
overall talk on the multi-cruise, multi-year
hydrography for the SBI region as well as a
bio-physical coupled modeling talk, then 10 min
individual PI talks to show results relevant to
2004 cruise planning input for science objectives
on all process and mooring cruises. Also, I'll
give an overview of the coastal community
outreach that we've been doing in Alaska related
to the spring and fall SBI cruises during bowhead
whaling season. The USCG representatives will
outline overall Healy operations and dry-dock
upgrades. Healy MSTs will discuss the key
components of the SBI projects ship needs, and
ship set up for the cruises. Andy Heiberg will
be at the meeting, too, as we will discuss
on/offloading cargo issues, shipment of
chemicals, van loading, etc.
