HOE DYLAN (Hawaii Ocean Experiment: DYnamics of Light And Nutrients)
“Everything passes, everything changes. Just do what you think you should do.” B.D. 65 days of ship time at Station ALOHA (May 21-Sept. 22, 2012) Intensive sampling of the upper ocean to better understand the importance of high frequency variability on the long-term HOT data record Resolving ocean microbial dynamics at hourly to weekly scales (solar cycles, eddies, waves, tides, etc.) June is leg 3 of the HOE DYLAN
