Mission accomplished

The cruise was a success and now it is back to shoreside life.  I was able to produce a 10 minute video showing some of the science operations happening as well as shipboard life.  The movie is 1080 HD so you can select the gear on the video frame and change the resolution.

 

 

The drift arrows are now on their way riding the currents and wind on the Arctic ocean.  Keep track of the drift with the locations of the drift buoys in the drift map link.  Unfortunately the Pacific Gyre buoy has lost power so the AR42 arrows are on their own.
