Comments
We continue marine science in the polynya close to the Mertz Glacier with 9 CTD casts and 3 Argo float deployments happening in the last 24 hours.
CTD casts at predetermined locations will continue in this area over the next 24 hours. Voyage to date we have completed well over 100 CTD casts
All on board are well and in good spirits.
Cheers
Tony & Lloyd
