- is a Marine National Facility
voyage
Period: 2011-11-22 02:00 to 2011-11-27 02:00 UTC
Duration: 5.00 days
From: Hobart To: Hobart
Region: Southern Ocean-Indian sector. Subantarctic Zone southwest of Tasmania
Ship: Southern Surveyor [details]
Description: Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) observations for climate and carbon cycle studies southwest of Tasmania (47ºS, 140ºE). The overall scientific objective is to obtain frequent measurements of surface and deep ocean properties that control the transfer of CO2 from the atmosphere to the upper ocean, and then onwards to the ocean interior in the form of sinking particles. This "biological pump" drives carbon sequestration from the atmosphere, and writes the sedimentary record. The controls on its intensity are complex and involve processes that vary on daily, weekly, seasonal, and interannual timescales. Obtaining observations with the necessary frequency is not possible from ships. For this reason the NCRIS IMOS Southern Ocean Time Series Facility seeks to obtain this information using automated sensor measurements and sample collections. This voyage will deploy the Southern Ocean Flux Station (SOFS-2) mooring to obtain in-air and in-sea measurements to better understand the exchange of heat, moisture, and gases between the ocean and atmosphere.
