Description:The primary objective of the cruise was to assess changing biological and physical properties which influence the sustainable productivity of the living marine resources of the Mid-Atlantic Bight, Southern New England, Georges Bank and Gulf of Maine portions of the northeast continental shelf ecosystem. Secondary objectives of this cruise were the collection of phytoplankton samples for nitrogen and carbon stable isotope ratios, the examination of plankton samples at sea for concentrations of Calanus finmarchicus to correlate with right whale sightings, and making special bongo tows to 75 meters in selected stations deeper than 100 meters in the Gulf of Maine.
