Supporting Stations: ARSV Laurence M. Gould, RV/IB Nathaniel B. Palmer DescriptionThis project consists of the maintenance of Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) computer systems on the ARSV Laurence M. Gould (LMG) and RV/IB Nathaniel B. Palmer (NBP). Port calls are required every one to two years to service these systems. Typically, this consists of upgrading or re-installing the UHDAS software on the shipboard data processing computers. Occasionally this will require hardware upgrades that require pre-approval by NSF to ensure the costs are covered by the grant. These computers are used to manage and post-process data. On the LMG, the ADCP data is specifically collected and managed under the Chereskin (O-317-L) project. On the NBP, the systems are maintained for general grantee requests. Field Season OverviewNo grantee deployments are expected this year, but ADCP data will be collected when both ships are underway outside of exclusive economic zones (EEZs). |
