Sampling cruise November 2009

Sampling map, Nov. 2From the 21st till the 27th of November 2009, the CLIMEEViet project will conduct an ambitious cruise in the Nha Phu sampling site. The cruise will consist of rigorous sampling in order to collect much needed data from the rainy season in the region.
Biological and physical sampling will be collected during a full 24 hour period, with sampling intervals of 30 minutes and 2 hours. This will occur twice to capture the effects of both neap and spring tide.
An ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) will be used to map the tidal currents in the bay, in order to evaluate hydrodynamics during changing tides.

Sediment samples as well as inland nutrient sampling is planned as well.
