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.                               
-------------------------------------------------                               
The CLIVAR/CO2 Repeat Hydrography Program is requesting 60 science days onboard 
a UNOLS Global Class vessel, particularly either R/V THOMAS G. THOMPSON or R/V  
REVELLE.  This program has $1,542,887 pending Congressional approval for        
FY2006.                                                                         
                                                                                
Due to regional weather patterns, it is requested that if the ship is scheduled 
to conduct this cruise in either April or May that the cruise start from        
Papeete, Tahiti to avoid the Spring storms in the Gulf of Alaska.  Otherwsie,   
if scheduled after May, the cruise may start in either Papeete, Tahiti or       
Kodiak, Alaska.  Due to the limited budget, the program requests that transits  
are minimized.  If commencing in Alaska, cooridinating with the Spring FOCI     
cruise would greatly reduce the transit costs that either program would be      
assessed.                                                                       
                                                                                
The CLIVAR/CO2 Program will be bringing four (4) vans on board that will        
require 220/480V hookups.  Additionally, a 36-bottle CTD/Rosette will be        
brought onboard as the primary sampler, with a 24-bottle CTD/Rosette as backup  
and a 12-bottle CTD/Rosette to be used in adverse weather conditions.
