SP2211 MAS MBC student cruise. Approximate tow time: 14:10-16:19 local time. Target depth: >600 m; estimated maximum depth ~700 m. Wire out: 1500 m. Bottom depth: ~700-825 m. Endpoint reflects position at 55 m wire out. One or two decimal places in minutes value (three or four places in decimal degrees) is probably an appropriate level of precision, given ship speed and variation between displays. IKMT samples processed by Charlotte Seid and Greg Rouse. Many salps. Cruise science team: Greg Rouse, Charlotte Seid, Kiirah Green, Paul Proctor, Matthew Stephenson.
