Comments

Station 4 continued: Pumps, FRRF, NIWA cast, CTD 2500 m, CTD 100 m. Additional CTD canceled due to bad weather. Currently assessing weather conditions with regard to retrieval of the 'O' string sediment traps. Traditional pie floaters served yesterday for Australia Day - a new experience for many of our multinational crowd on board. Official Australia Day celebrations planned for tomorrow due to sampling schedule. Regards Vicky & Karin
