Researchers with NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory spent nearly 6 weeks at sea for the PIRATA (Prediction and Research Moored Array in the Tropical Atlantic) Northeast Extension (PNE) cruise, a joint effort between AOML and NOAA’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory to maintain an expansion of the PIRATA array of surface moorings into the northern and northeastern sectors of the tropical Atlantic.
Diego Ugaz, a University of Miami Cooperative Institute technician, recorded his time aboard the ship and provided a look into his daily life at sea.
