First Trawl of DP11!

Hello everyone!

My name is Bianca Ruiz, and I am a master's student working under Dr. Tracey Sutton's in the Oceanic Ecology Lab at Nova Southeastern University. Some of you may recognized me from our previous DP10 and DSB2 cruise blogs. This is my third cruise with the DEEPEND consortium, and I am excited to catch you all up on what has been going on in the water!

When you can’t use saltwater for everything…..

Hi everyone! Heather J. here and wanted to share how our cruise is progressing.  We left the dock at 0001 Thursday night and made it to our first station around 9 am yesterday morning.

Calling it a wrap on DSB2!

Hello, everyone- 

Heather J. here for the last blog of our adventure!  We have gotten back to port and chaos ensues as we unpack the lab, remove equipment from the deck, and load the van and other vehicles for their respective trips home.
