Comments
Completed CTD line yesterday afternoon, acoustic transect by evening and a complete sampling transect by 0730 this morning. A few teething problems with the nets but several successful trawls now completed. 5 Argos buoys and one sediment trap deployed. Into regular pattern of 2 acoustic transects by day and one sampling transect at night. Some krill about but no large aggregations yet. Regards, Steve and Ruth
