(SECOORA) Glider - Test Deployment for Northwest Passage Project in MARACOOS Domain - amelia-20180501T0000

This glider will be deployed in the southern Mid-Atlantic Bight. The goal of the mission is to conduct CTD and DO Optode cross-calibration with a recently calibrated MARACOOS glider Sylvia in the MARACOOS domain.

It will provide additional hydrographic data in the Mid-Atlantic region even though its CTD has not been recently calibrated. The glider is scheduled to be deployed on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 and recovered on Monday May 14, 2018. The glider will be deployed near the 35 m isobath at mid-shelf off Wachepreague VA and fly offshore toward Washington Canyon.
