The R/V Knorr, on Cruise 206, carried out the recovery 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. Knorr departed from Woods
Hole, Massachusetts on April 10, 2012 and steamed south to the location of the mooring
deployments on the shelf break. Over five days, April 10-15, Knorr surveyed the bottom
at the planned mooring sites, recovered the moorings, and carried out preliminary
investigations of mechanical and electrical functionality on the recovered moorings and
mooring hardware, including observations of biofouling and corrosion. Knorr returned to
Woods Hole on April 15, 2012.
