IMR Standard Section Svinøy Sampling program RV METEOR ‘Deep Convection’ Cruise 2012 EURO-BASIN Cruise Programme, 29-30 Sep 2011
IMR Standard sections and fixed stations • Svinøy standard section: • Repeated 5 times per year • Januar, March, May, July, November • Objectives: • Long term monitoring of • Hydrography • Nutrients • Phytoplankton • ooplankton RV METEOR ‘Deep Convection’ Cruise 2012 EURO-BASIN Cruise Programme, 29-30 Sep 2011
Sampling program • Zooplankton • WP2 (180 mµ) 0-200m at all stations • 1 m2 Mocness (180 mµ) to bottom at selected stations (if weather and cable permits) • 50% of sample on formalin • 50% of sample: Biomass size fractions >180, >1000, >2000 (extracting krill, amphipods, shrimps, fish,+) • Phytoplankton • Chlorophyll samples down to 100 m • Phytoplankton species: Water samples (0-30 m) from the bottles (lugol) • Phytoplankton species: 10 mµ net haul (30-0m) (20% formalin) • Secchi • Nutrients • 12 water bottles • Nutrient samples from all depths • Nitrate, Nitrite, Phosphate, Silicate (ammonium is possible) • Hydrography • CTD with Fluorescence, oxygen, Light, Ph (to bottom at all depths • Thermo-salinograph (T, S, Fluorescence) • Weather station data...

Additional sampling at Svinøy • Macroplankton trawl for macroplankton and micronekton • Mulitfrequency acoustics (fish, macroplankton, micronekton) • ADCP • Applied for two days extra on the Svinøy section for BASIN • Standard program takes about two days... • Challange: we do not know what ship will be used yet... • GOSars about 25 berths for scientists. Standard IMR scientific crew on Standard sections are 4 persons. • Johan Hjort ? • Håkon Mosby ? RV METEOR ‘Deep Convection’ Cruise 2012 EURO-BASIN Cruise Programme, 29-30 Sep 2011
Database • IMR database holds: • hydrographic data, including fluorescence • Nutrient and chlorophyll data • Zooplankton data (nets and macroplankton trawl) • Fish data (trawl) • Acoustic raw data and scrutinised data • Data from towed platforms (CTD, fluor., OPC, Acoustics, VPR self contained) RV METEOR ‘Deep Convection’ Cruise 2012 EURO-BASIN Cruise Programme, 29-30 Sep 2011
BASIN cruise June 2012 • 13 days with G.O. Sars in early June 2012 (Confirmed by IMR cruise committee) • Time to be shared with other projects (INDIPOP, ++?) • Arctic front between Iceland and Jan Mayen RV METEOR ‘Deep Convection’ Cruise 2012 EURO-BASIN Cruise Programme, 29-30 Sep 2011
BASIN Cruise objectives • T5.1.2 Spatial structure in small pelagic fish populations, Atlanto Scandic herring, blue whiting and mackerel • Migration of herring in relation to zooplankton dynamics at the Arctic front • Cruise activities will focus on the continuous monitoring of high resolution 3D distribution of hydrography, fluorescence, size resolved zooplankton, and fish.
