Continuation of the ALTOMOOR Mooring Program (Now Referred to as the Bermuda Testbed Mooring Program)

Abstract

The long-term goal of the Bermuda Testbed Mooring (BTM) Program is to provide a reliable platform in the deep ocean for instrumentation testing and development. Our objectives for the BTM are to provide mooring design, fabrication and operations support for ongoing instrumentation development and related environmental measurements. The tasks required to meet these objectives include building replacement moorings, leading the field operations, organizing the cruise logistics, and working closely with other researchers who are using or plan to use the platform.
