Summary
|
4 Oct 2010 (Monday): Bratton and Bergeron drove from Woods Hole to Delaware,
launched boat, and set up gear--too windy to survey. 5 Oct 2010: began
surveying but CRP equipment problems prevented collection of any good data,
returned to marina to troubleshoot and ended early with no progress. 6 Oct
2010: Joel Banaszak arrived with backup CRP gear from Univ. of Toledo; completed
approximately 9 hrs of surveying (10 lines E-W and N-S). 7 Oct 2010: completed
approx. 7 hrs of surveying of bay perimeter and tight grid at Holts Landing; bad
weather and eqpt trouble ended surveying early; most CRP data collected was
corrupt upon downloading; demobilized gear and pulled boat out of the water on
trailer. 8 Oct 2010: drove back to Woods Hole. After processing, most CRP data
collected appeared to be of low quality or unusable; navigation, bathymetry, and
water quality data were all good. Planned repeat of survey is for September or
October of 2011.
