Description
Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (FOCI) is an effort by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and associated academic scientists. FOCI's goal is to understand the effects of abiotic and biotic variability on ecosystems of the North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea in order to discern the physical and biological processes that determine recruitment variability of commercially valuable finfish and shellfish stocks in Alaskan waters. The primary objective of the cruise will be the recovery and deployment of moorings in the Gulf of Alaska and Bering Sea. The second objective will be physical oceanographic property sampling at and near the mooring locations.
