The
NPEO 2006 hydrographic survey consisted of
seven stations, measuring
a CTD transect across the Pole and toward
Alaska along 180° Longitude as far as
logistically feasible. Three Twin Otter stations
recorded
by the associated project Freshwater Switchyard of
the Arctic Ocean in May 2006 attempted to extend
the line nearly to Alert. This
repeats similar sections recorded during NPEO 2001
and 2004. Additionally,
for the fourth year Switchyard conducted a series
of CTD stations across the shelf break near Alert.
The
first cast
at the Borneo logistics
camp/runway serves as a station close to 89°N
and 180°E.
