Description:The cruise period was 18 August to 1 September 2010. Loading of the Delaware II took place on 16 and 17 August. Two days were lost to bad weather near the beginning of the cruise, and one day to an emergency medical evacuation in mid-cruise. This cruise worked from north to south unlike the typical ecosystem monitoring cruise, the rational being to improve coverage in the Gulf of Maine area which has been poor on several recent Ecosystem Monitoring Surveys. A total of 78 ecosystem monitoring stations were sampled; 34 in the Gulf of Maine (GOM), 30 on Georges Bank (GB), and 14 in Southern New England (SNE). An additional 12 stations were sampled in the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank for comparison with the In Situ Ichthyoplankton Imaging System (ISIIS) which was used on Stellwagen Bank and on Georges Bank. There was not enough time remaining in the allotted schedule to complete sampling in the western portion of the Southern New England area and the Mid-Atlantic Bight.
