HALE ALOHA
Our next destination is the HALE -
ALOHA mooring (located about 40 nautical miles north of Kahuku Point on the island of
Oahu). The mooring is usually deployed for periods of about 6
months and temperature pods, Seacats, trace metal samplers and current meters
are some of the instruments installed on the mooring line. A CTD cast is
regularly conducted near the mooring during HOT cruises to help calibrate some
of these moored instruments.
