Mission Accomplished, Homeward Bound

By dtrewcrist | September 13, 2023

Homeward bound! The Irminger 10 team has completed all cruise objectives (in spite of high winds/heavy seas) and is heading home. All moorings have been deployed and recovered; gliders deployed; CTD casts for instrument cross-calibration, meteorological surveys, and ancillary CTD casts to support the OSNAP program were completed, and many marine mammal sightings were recorded. The success of this expedition is a result of the tremendous teamwork from the R/V Neil Armstrong crew, shoreside support, and the OOI and CRL engineers and technicians who prepared and deployed the Irminger-10 assets. Their hard work has made possible the data that will be sent home for the next year. Well done team!
