Measurements are reported from three stations and include temperature, fluorescence, oxygen, conductivity, salinity, and sound velocity profiles. The purpose of cruise was to release and collect the five EARS moorings deployed in June 2015, find and recover the SLOCUM glider deployed 2015-10-12, collect additional oceanographic data(temperature, salinity, oxygen concentration, plankton fluorescence, bathymetry, sound velocity), and take additional water samples for microbiological research. This cruise was led by chief scientists Dr. Natalaia Sidorovskaia.
