OBJECTIVES AND BRIEF NARRATIVE OF CRUISE
SARDONE Project is UE funded project in the Sixth Framework Program. SARDONE is aimed at developing a series of tools to better understand stock assessment and fishery management of small pelagic fish resources (anchovy and sardine) of the Mediterranean Sea.

This is the second monitoring cruise of SARDONE Project
The ship departed on the 13th February evening and arrrived on Manfredonia Gulf on 14th.
Here the work was carried out up to 15th February,when the sea were becoming rough so the ship entered in Barletta harbour. On 19th February the ship exit to finish the work. Due to the changed conditions some work had done again.

The scientific crew was: Arneri , Panfili, De Felice, Campanella, Cingolani, Lucchetti, and Penna from ISMAR-Ancona.
Borme from OGS

(IF APPLICABLE) if the cruise is designated as part of a larger scale cooperative projct (or expedition), then enter the name of the project and of organisation responsible for co-ordinanting the project.

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
PI Latitude Longitude TYPE DESCRIPTION
- - - - ----
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.
