AUV launch and recovery will require two small boats (RHIB or equivalent) available at least 8-hours per day. Two surface moorings and several bottom mounted transponders will be deployed (requires TSE mooring winch or equivalent). Science Activities: Operations Area: off SW coast of Kauai HI vic 21/55N, 159/41W (graphic to be sent separately) 120 nm to first station 12 days on station 50 m - 2500 m Depth Range Departure Port: Honolulu HI Agent: Vasile Tudoran Transport 819 Ohio Ave. Long Beach, CA 90804 Contact: Vasile Tudoran Phone: (562) 882-5590 Fax: (562) 434-9800 Email : [1]vtudoran@aol.com For all packages and larger items, please send directly to the address below.* Please notify Vasile Tudoran, [2]vtudoran@aol.com, and Mr. Keith Adams, [3]keitha@soest.hawaii.edu, in advance of all shipments.

It is requested that shipment information of any equipment be communicated to the Agent and WHOI contacts. Arrival Port: Honolulu HI Agent: same SHIP Installed or Normally 12 kHz bathymetry system Carried Equipment: ADCP - 75 kHz & 150 KHz CTD/rosette system - Basic CTD only -- primarily for sound velocity profile XBT system LBL nav. MET sensors: (wind speed and direction, air temperature, SST, etc.) only. No IMET required. WHOI-Provided Equipment: Science Party-Provided 2 - 4 transponders/nets - we will supply, deploy, Equipment: and recover. WHOI Oceanographic Systems Laboratory (T. Austin, B. Allen) will bring their Ship of Opportunity Launch and Recovery System (SOO-LARS) for use with the REMUS 600 vehicles. Measurements have been made of KNORR's A-frame for purpose of building adapters. Contact B. Allen for details. Two surface moorings will be deployed in approx. 1000m depths to serve as vehicle communications and navigation gateways. Several bottom-mounted LBL navigation transponders will also be deployed. WHOI OSL is coordinating this; J. Kemp is planning and providing the mooring support. A TSE mooring winch (or equivalent) is required. Electrical Power, Equipment Handling, Communications, Science Stowage - All are associated with REMUS and glider (and associated sensors) launch and recovery. See email. Notes: HAZMAT: REMUS AUVs contain Li-ion rechargeable batteries. Seaglider gliders contain Li primary batteries. We will supply MSDS and safety procedures for both types of batteries.
