SUMMARY:Online Technical Training: Mooring operations in polar waters 
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:Date: 13 April 2021\nTime: 9:00 – 10:30 GMT\nCourse summary: Fixed ocean mo
 orings are the main platforms to provide long-term observations of marine e
 nvironment, covering different time scales from shorter than hourly to mont
 hly, seasonal and multi-annual measurements. Moored instruments can measure
  different ocean variables, including physical, biogeochemical and biologic
 al parameters (and also collect samples and visual images) in the entire wa
 ter column, also under the sea ice. However, mooring operations in the dema
 nding, ice-covered polar areas are linked to unique challenges, related bot
 h to the platform design (instrumentation and mooring hardware) and to the 
 manner of deployment and recovery from an icebreaker in conditions of parti
 al or even sea ice cover. During this short course, we will introduce the m
 ain issues about how to plan, design, equip and operate a mooring for measu
 rements in the polar region and discuss planning the campaign and specific 
 ship operations for deployment and recovery of moorings in ice-covered wate
 rs. The details of such work will be explored using a case study with the d
 eep ocean acoustic multidisciplinary moorings deployed under the CAATEX pro
 ject for 2019-2020 in the Arctic Ocean from the Norwegian Coast Guard icebr
 eaker KV Svalbard.\nFor further information and to register, please visit t
