Description:Intercomparison tests of drift buoys to be used in the Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere (TOGA) Pan Pacific Surface Current Study were conducted from the NOAA Ship Oceanographer during its cruise from American Samoa to Hawaii in support of the Equatorial Pacific Ocean Climate Studies (EPOCS) program. The ship departed American Samoa on May 10, 1988 and arrived in Honolulu, Hawaii on June 4, 1988. While underway, the primary tasks included CTD sampling with chemical and nutrient analysis, deploying and recycling ATLAS, current meter and upward-looking acoustic Doppler mooring arrays, population surveys of aquatic and bird species, and the buoy intercomparison tests.
