Vents will requesting the use of JASON II during there forthcoming cruise;      
therefore ship availablity must be coupled to the availability of JASON II.     
Alternatively, if JASON II is unavailable, Vents may be considering ROPOS.      
Vents is requesting 15 science days to include mobe/de-mobe and transit with an
