Deployment: KN207-01

Projected Science Plan: The plan is to conduct two, 5-day quasi-lagrangian time-series stations at 65W, one north of the Gulf Stream and one south of the Gulf Stream.  The daily cruise track will be centered around following free-floating sediment net traps arrays.  The traps will be retrieved and re-deployed on 24 hour intervals (generally beginning at day break).  CTD casts, primarily in the upper 250 meters, will be done in the afternoons, with McLane pumps deployed overnight.
