The Diel study was completed with the final two measurement times at 2000 yesterday and 0200 this morning. A thorium CTD cast to 1000m complemented the pump retrievals. A cast of the NIWA rosette was completed at the end of the day. Operations were halted due to high winds and large swells and seas after the final Diel measurements at 0200 this morning. Winds shifting west. Now waiting on weather to complete drifting trap recoveries and final water collection casts. We are following drifting traps which are 15 to 20 nm southeast of the original station location. If the weather co-operates, we plan to go to station 7 tomorrow and then on to station 8 by Wednesday. Regards Vicky & Karin
