  1. P6314 - Field Oceanography Charlie Bishop Susanne Brandstatter Ashley Robar

  2. Details of Study • Ship: Anne S. Pierce • Duration of Cruise: 1.5 days (Oct. 7th – Oct. 8th)

  3. Study Site • Conception Bay • Open Bay (Oct. 7th) • Tickle (Oct. 8th) • 5 fixed stations • 2 ADCP transects • Sonar Survey

  4. Purpose of Project • 3 aspects of oceanography in Conception Bay • Physical • Geological • Biological • Question: How do these 3 areas interconnect within Conception Bay?

  5. Equipment and Example A= Chaetognath, B= Copepod -1, C= Copepod -2, D= Cladoceran, E= Echinoderm Larvae, F= Gastropod Larvae, G= Larvacean, H= Mysid, I= Shrimp Larvae, J= Pteropod, K= Starfish Larvae. Plankton Ring Tow Net

  6. Equipment and Example Bottom Grab Sampler

  7. Equipment and Example Biosonics Echo-Sounder

  8. Equipment and Example Secchi Depth Secchi Disk

  9. Equipment and Example CTD

  10. Equipment and Example Tides Strong Winds??? Moored Thermistor and ADCP

  11. Equipment and Example Towed ADCP

  12. Equipment and Example Glider

  13. Equipment and Example Sub-Bottom Sonar

  14. Equipment and Example Side-Scan Sonar

  15. Equipment and Example Multibeam Sonar

  16. Projected Data Analysis • Physical • Moored ADCP, Moored vs. Towed ADCP, thermistor, CTD, Biosonics  filtering • Geological • Side-scan, Multi-beam, Sub-bottom sonar  filtering • Biological • Statistical Analysis among sites, Species Abundance/Dominance, Comparison with Biosonics

  17. References/Acknowledgements • Dr. Ralf Bachmayer • Dr. Sam Bentley • Dr. Daniel Bourgault • Dr. Brad deYoung • Dr. Paul Snelgrove • Jack Foley • Brenda Oakes
