The R/V Brooks McCall departed on Aug. 29, 2010 from Fourchon, La. to collect data in the Gulf of Mexico, Mississippi Canyon. From Aug. 30 to Sept. 1, 2010, three days of Brooks McCall Cruise 20 tracked the subsurface plume signals as part of Operation Clean Sweep. A total of 10 CTD casts completed, 40 samples from 6 stations (BM194-T9S9, BM195-T9S10, BM199-T11-S11, BM200- T11-S10, BM201- T11-S9, BM202- T10-S9) were analyzed by Hach modified Winkler methods today. DO data have been submitted with the daily deliverables. The 60 Hach results from Cruise 20 had a correlation of 0.99 with the in situ Seabird DO sensor. This demonstrates that the Seabird DO meter continues to provide a very reliable in situ measure of DO. There was no indication of oil in the fluorometry data at any of the sites sampled.
