September 6, the OMG's Bathymetry sonar survey ship surveyed 416 nautical miles, with 15 Conductivity Temperature, Depth (CTD) measurements.
The thin yellow line is the ship track, going into Kakivfaat bay. While the ship was in the bay, the glacier calved while the ship was stopped taking a CTD measurements. The ship was approximately 1.0 nautical mile from the glacier face.
OMG's Survey ship, Cape Race has been re-positioned to South Melville Greenland, The TerraSond's survey crew departed for Greenland on Sunday. The plan is to resume OMG's North West Bathymetry survey of Greenland on September 4.
Last week, OMG was in the news:
OMG's underwater Bathymetry survey continued last week. The ship surveyed 852 nautical miles, and completed 73 Conductivity / Temperature profiles.
Below is the quick look survey plot.
Also last week, OMG's web site went live. The website is https://omg.jpl.nasa.gov/portal/
Below is the ship's log for last week. The survey so far, has completed 1289 NM with a total of 132 Conductivity / Temperature profiles.
Below is an underwater survey quick look plot for last week.
OMG's Bathymetry sonar survey is progressing nicely. Below is a summary report from 1 August. Ship has surveyed 749 NM, in 9.1 days, with 79 CTD casts (Conductivity, Temperature and Depth profiles)
