OBJECTIVES AND BRIEF NARRATIVE OF CRUISE
Second seasonal (winter) monitoring cruise of ADRICOSM-STAR Project

The ship departed at 15:30 of Monday 21 January. Dallaporta arrived in Durres at 18.30 of Tuesday 22 (27 hours later) where all the foreign staff went on board.
From Montenegro : Jovicic Aleksandar, Macic Vesna and Bulatovic Ana.
From Albania : Como Elvin and Murtaj Bledar.

We stayed in Durres until on 23 January because of the rough sea. At 10:45 of Wednesday 24 Dallaporta left the harbour going to the station 7-1. At 13.30 two stations 7-1 and 7-2 were made but the sea were becoming rough so we decided to go to repair to the Drinit Bay . Here 6 stations (6-2, 6-1, 5-3, 5-4, 5-2 and 5-1) were done and at 19:15 the ship dropped the anchor waiting for the sea went down. On 25 January in the morning we started by the station 5-5 and on 26 January all the work was done except for the stations 1-6 and 1-7 (no time enough to enter in Zelelenika). At 20:00 of 26 we entered into Zelenika harbour. At 21.40 we left the harbour to make the last two stations but the sea were becoming rough so the ship went toward the northern Croatian coast. On 27 January the ship dropped the anchor near the coast of Korcula Island . On 29 January at 20:00 we entered in the Ancona harbour.

Water samples for Oxygen Winkler analisys on board.

The italian scientific crew was: Caccamo, Campanelli, Grilli and Penna.
Grilli and Penna helped by Jovicic performed the CTD and rosette.
Campanelli and Caccamo helped by Macic, Bulatovic, Como and Murtaj performed the sample and filtration operations.

This section should be used for reporting mooring, bottom mounted gear and drifting systems (both surface and deep) deployed and/or recovered during the cruise.
Separate entries should be made for each location (only deployement positions need be given for drifting systems). This section may also be used to report data collected at fixed locations which are returned to routinely in order to construct 'long time series'.
MOORINGS, BOTTOM MOUNTED GEAR AND DRIFTING SYSTEMS
PILatitudeLongitudeTYPEDESCRIPTION
---- ----

Separate entries should be made for each distinct amd coherent set of measurements of samples. Different modes of data collection (e.g. vertical profiles as opposed to underway measurement) should be clearly distinguished,as shouldmeasurements/sampling techniques that imply distinctly different accuracy's or spatial/temporalresolution. Thus, for example, separate entries would be created for i) XBT drops, ii) water bottle stations, iii) CTD casts, iv) towed CTD, v) towed undulating CTD profiler, vi) surface water intake measurements, etc.
Each data set entry should start on a new line - it's description may extend over several lines if necessary.
