More Work Photos

Here are some more photos that David Vejar took (me by surprise). This is...pretty much what I do every night anywhere from 9-12 hours! :) We get the CTD in the water, I run into the lab and fire up the processing unit, run the software, watch the data stream, communitcate with the bridge and deck about ops, and fire any bottles for water samples (more on that below). Then when it is at the surface, I bring it back on deck with the winch operator. The whole thing takes about 30 minutes and then we steam to the next site. We usually do 10 CTDs a night.
