Identifier 2011-038-FA
Alternate names HLY1102
Purpose Collect data to define the extent of the extended continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean and also to make measurements on ocean acidification and gravity.
Equipment or personnel only. Data, if any, are managed under a different field activity.
Summary The primary mission of Healy cruise 1102 was to collect multibeam bathymetry. Data were also collected and processed from two BGM gravimeters onboard, and water samples were collected and processed to analyze oceanic geochemistry, isotopic ratios and dissolved carbon in the Arctic Ocean.
