KESS IS A COOPERATIVE 3-INSTITUTION PROGRAM. Points-of-contact are
URI(Watts) and WHOI(Hogg)
Cruise requirements. 2004 (2 legs); 2005 (2 legs); 2006 (2 legs).
All require Ocean-Ranger or deep-reaching 800m-to-1000m ADCP; CTD, XBT, Taiyo
RDF; ARGOS rcvr;
Directional-GPS, interfaced to ADCP; marine gravimeter;
deck space for mooring winch and container.

Are there special considerations of the science party or cruise scheduling?
Consider science time constraints; coordination of equipment shipping;
two-ship operations; weather windows; mooring turn-around; teaching schedules
and others that will affect scheduling decisions.
-------------------------------------------------
Before and after Hogg's 19-d leg, we need 3-day mobilization and 1-day
demobilization.
Before and after Watts' 29-d leg we need 1-d mobilization and 1-d
demobilization.
