The R/V Oceanus, on Cruise 475, carried out the deployment of three moorings for the
Coastal and Global Scale Nodes (CGSN) Implementing Organization of the NSF Ocean
Observatories Initiative. These three moorings are prototypes of the moorings to be used
by CGSN at the Pioneer, Endurance, and Global Arrays. Oceanus departed from Woods
Hole, Massachusetts on September 22, 2011 and steamed south to the location of the
mooring deployments on the shelf break. Over three days, September 23-25, Oceanus
surveyed the bottom at the planned mooring sites, deployed the moorings, and carried out
on site verification of the functioning of the moorings and moored hardware. Oceanus
returned to Woods Hole on September 26, 2011.
