| 1. Dr. Bill Williams (IOS) deploys the uCTD... okay he just threw it over the side. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 2. Fish On! During retrieval the uCTD breaks the surface several hundred meters behind the ship. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 3. The uCTD file is downloaded wirelessly and checked for problems. Further processing will be done later. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 4. Places not to put fingers - the bow of the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent is busy with heavy machinery. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 5. Ben Lincoln (Bangor U) gears up to deploy the turbulence instrument. The VMP 500 must be gently handed over the side so everyone wears a safety vest and harness which is then attached to this ship by a leash. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 6. The business end of things - the vertical microstructure profiler uses probes that work like a record player needle encased in resin. This area is "do not touch". (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 7. The VMP 500 is lifted over the side for a dive to ~ 500 meters. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
| 8. Chief Officer Don Whitty oversees deck operations: Winchman Ed Bridgeman and Boatswain Rico Amamio assist Kris Newhall and Jim Dunn (WHOI) with a drifting buoy deployment. (Steve Lambert, WHOI) |
