SCIENTIFIC
PURPOSE:
This cruise had two scientific
goals.
The first (and foremost) was the
recovery and redeployment of moorings in the Bering Strait. These moorings are part of a multi-year
time-series (currently over 12 years long) of measurements of the flow through
the Bering Strait. The properties of
this flow not only influence the Chukchi and Beaufort seas, but can also be
traced across the Arctic Ocean to the Fram Strait and beyond. The long-term monitoring of the inflow into
the Arctic Ocean via the Bering Strait is important for understanding climatic
change both locally and in the Arctic.
Three moorings (A2 and A4, in the
eastern channel of Bering Strait, and A3, ca. 35nm north of Bering Strait),
which were deployed from the Alpha Helix last year, were to be recovered and
redeployed.
All the moorings carry conventional
instrumentation - current meters (RCM or ADCP), temperature and salinity
sensors (SBE16). In addition, moorings
A2 and A3 carry Upward-Looking-Sonars (ULS).
The mooring A4 carries an upward looking ADCP (instead of the RCM) to
study the coastal jet. Mooring A3 also
supports a nutrient sampler, and a transmissometer and a fluorometer (the
latter two connected to the SBE16).
These instruments are from UAF and the replacement mooring also carries
these sensors. The current meters and
ULSs allow the quantification of the movement of ice and water through the
strait. The nutrient sampler, the
transmissometer and fluorometer yield the first biophysical time series
measurements in the region, greatly advancing our understanding of the
biological system in the Bering Strait and Chukchi Sea.
The second aim of the cruise was to
conduct a hydrographic and ADCP survey of the Bering Strait and the southern part
of the Chukchi Sea, concentrating on sections in the vicinity of the moorings
and the region north of the mooring sites.
These CTD and nutrient measurements will be used to calibrate the moored
instruments and to give a framework for the analysis of the data. The hydrographic lines repeated and extended
the sections from previous years, thus allowing an interannual comparison. (This year, no EEZ application was made to work
in Russian waters, and all work took place in the US EEZ.) Post cruise data analysis will also draw on
SeaWifs images kindly collected for us by Mike Schmidt, NASA.
In addition to maintaining the time
series measurements in Bering Strait, this work also provides key boundary
conditions for the Chukchi Shelf/Beaufort Sea region, the main work area of the
NSF/ONR SBI (Shelf Basin Interaction) program, which is now in the second of
its three field years. It also
complements other NSF grants. Specifically
the hydrography and O-18 sampling supports not only our analysis but also the
sections taken by the Little Diomede Observatory (Cooper et al) and also student education by participation in this cruise
of Justin Denton, (a chemistry student from SUNY, College of Environmental
Science and Forestry, Chemistry Department, Syracuse, New York), and Anne Hess,
(a trainee Marine Science Technician from the MATE Center, Monterey Peninsula
College, California).
Pre-cruise, an invitation to take part
in the cruise was extended to Sergey Pisarev (Shirshov Institute of
Oceanology). However, due to visa issues, Sergey was unable to participate in
the cruise.
CRUISE
OBJECTIVES:
1.
To recover moorings A2-02, A3-02 and A4-02 (see Table 1).
2.
To deploy moorings A2-03, A3-03, and A4-03.
3.
To run hydrographic casts (CTD and nutrients) and ADCP sections in the
vicinity of the moorings and in the southern region of the Chukchi Sea (see
Table 2 and Figure 1).
All the cruise objectives were
successfully accomplished. The moorings
were recovered and redeployed, and a total of 123 CTD stations, and
corresponding ADCP lines were run.
Sampling details are provided below.

SCIENCE
PROGRAMS:
Although fog delayed mooring
recoveries, prompt completion of the mooring work and subsequently reasonable
weather allowed us to extend our CTD and ADCP sampling as far north as Cape
Lisburne.
Mooring
work:
All three moorings (see Table 1) were
successfully and smoothly recovered and redeployed. Releases functioned well.
All instrumentation was recovered in good condition. Fouling was moderate, with a strong
predominance of barnacles, especially on the upper instruments. Unlike in previous years, A3-02 was the
least fouled and A4 was the most fouled.
Rotors were still turning and salinity cells were clear.
All current meters (RCM7, RCM11 and the
ADCP) and seacats yielded complete year long records (see the appendices). Of the optics sensors on the A3 seacat, the
fluorometer yielded a full year of data, whilst fouling of the lenses degraded
the PAR and transmissometer data after 3 months. The ULSs were still working on recovery and yielded good data
throughout the year. The NAS nitrate sensor contained almost 1500 data points
which represents 150 days of data. The
nitrate data was very clean for the first two months but an increased scatter
appears in the latter half of the record.
The summer drawdown and fall enrichment of nitrate was clearly observed
in the record.
CTD and
ADCP work:
A total of
123 CTD casts were taken along 8 different sections (see map, Figure 1, and
sections in the appendices). The Bering
Strait line (BSL) was CTDed twice, once at the start (BSL1) and once at the end
(BSL2) of the cruise. At each major
section (BSL, MBS, NBS, A3L, CHUK and EEXT) the CTD line was either preceded or
followed immediately by an ADCP line run at 7 knots. The longer sections (PHL, CPL and CCL) could not be traversed
twice and thus transit between CTD sections was undertaken at a compromise
speed of ca. 8 knots, to acquire reasonable ADCP data whilst still maintaining
quasi-synopticity of the line. In the
shallow, changeable shelf system, the latter is important, as witnessed by the
differences between BSL1 and BSL2 taken 6 days apart. Note also for example, section CCL took almost 36 hours to run,
in part due to stormy weather conditions.
During this storm, the mixed layer depth presumably deepened throughout
the Chukchi Sea. However, since CCL was
run from north to south the deeper mixed layer depths are only evident later in
the section, (i.e. at the southern end).
The CTD
package carried sensors for temperature, conductivity, fluorescence, PAR and
the comparatively new ISUS nitrate sensor.
Sections for these parameters are shown in the appendices. As a trial set-up, the ISUS nitrate sensor
was mounted in place of one of the bottles, with its sensors pointing up. For a more permanent installation, the
instrument should be mounted either below the bottles of the rosette or with
its head down. The instrument was found
to require an eight minute warming up period before deployment. Without this, spurious signals are evident
in the upper part of the cast (see e.g. BSL1).
The sections
show, for example, the warm fresh coastal current on the US coast. The strength of this current is seen
qualitatively also by increased ship drift during CTD casts in this area. The deviations of the nutrient-rich western
waters into the eastern side of the Chukchi Sea are also evident. The high bottom maximum in nitrate on the
PHL was associated with a concentration of grey whale sightings. The changes in the BSL section over just a
few days indicates the fast response to wind forcing.
Nutrient
Analysis work (Whitledge, Thornton, Lee):
A total of 485 nutrient samples were
taken and analyzed on board for silicate, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite and ammonia
by Whitledge, Thornton and Lee.
Preliminary section plots are included in the appendices. In addition, at many stations samples were
taken at surface, mid water column and bottom for chlorophyll, and at some
stations samples were taken for size-fractionated chlorophyll, fractionated on
20um, 5um and GF/F filters. At the four
sites A2, A3, NBS12 and CCL15, primary productivity stations (stable isotope
nutrient enrichment primary productivity experiments with 15N-labeled nitrate
and ammonia and 13C-labeled carbon) were also run.
Chromophoric
Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) and DOC Analysis work and
sampling
(Deal, Denton):
A total of
233 CDOM samples and 176 DOC samples were taken at the 34 sites listed
below. Some measurements of CDOM
absorption spectra were made on board, while most of the measurements were made
in the laboratory at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The DOC samples will be analyzed post cruise
by Celine Guegen, IARC/Frontier.
CDOM and DOC
seawater profiles were taken at 34 sites, namely
July 1:
BSL-1,2,3,4,5 and 6,A2P
July 2:
A3,A2,A4
July 3:
NBS-12,9,6 and 3

July 6:
CPL8,CCL20,15 and 10
July 7:
CCL6,8 and 4, BSL1,3 and 5
Oxygen
isotope sampling (Woodgate for Cooper, Tennessee):
A total of 346 water samples were taken
for O18 sampling. Samples were taken at
bottom, 5m and (where appropriate) midwater column at all stations except some
of the productivity stations (see bottle list in the appendices). These samples were sealed with parafilm and
shipped to Lee Cooper at the University of Tennessee for later analysis. To ensure the integrity of the bottle
samples, when possible salinity samples (ca. 200) were taken from the bottles
used for O18 samples.
Underway
sampling:
Seachest data and standard underway
meteorological sampling was conducted for the duration of the cruise. These data will be combined with the CTD and
ADCP data to elucidate spatial structures.
SEAWIFs
imagery:
Mike Schmidt,
NASA, kindly supplied to the cruise any Seawifs images collected during the
science mission. Although extreme cloud
cover prevented collection of a clear image of the entire work area, useful
part-area images were collected. These
2-dimensional images (see the appendices will aid analysis of the highly
spatially variable water mass structures in the region.
Educational Outreach:
Two students took part in the
cruise.
Justin Denton, (a chemistry student
from SUNY, College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Chemistry Department,
Syracuse, New York), assisted with the CDOM and DOC sampling (Deal, see above).
Anne Hess, (a trainee Marine Science
Technician from the MATE Center, Monterey Peninsula College, California) gained
experience of CTD and mooring work during the cruise, including running a CTD
watch, O18 and salinity sampling and CTD operations.

APPENDICES:
A)
CTD sections for BSL1
BSL2
MBS
NBS
A3L
CHUK
+ EEXT
PHL
CPL
CCL
Each
page shows temperature, salinity, sigma-theta, Fluorescence, PAR and ISUS
nitrate. Vertical axis is pressure in
dbar. This data is preliminary,
post-cruise, without significant quality control. In the biological parameters, these results should be taken only
qualitatively. The ISUS readings,
especially, require significant work at the early sections, e.g. BSL1.
B)
Nutrient sections for BSL1
BSL2
MBS
NBS
A3L
CHUK
+ EEXT
PHL
CPL
CCL
Each page shows
phosphate, silicate, total nitrogen, nitrate and ammonia. Vertical axis is pressure in dbar. All other units are micromolar (uM). This data is preliminary, post-cruise,
without significant quality control.
C) Preliminary Current
Meter and SBE Results
Results using rough
calibrations only. All current
directions are magnetic, i.e. not corrected for local declination.
D) SeaWifs images
E) O18 bottle logs
(paper copy only)
F) Cruise photos
(including instrument fouling)
