April 1, 2007...Day 2

Today was a busy day....5 stations in all, 2 of which were Master stations (These are designated by an "M" following the station name.) Master stations are different from regular stations in that they tend to be deeper than regular stations. We also collect water from more depths at these stations versus the regular stations.

We hit MI18M at 12:40am. Total depth was 159.0 meters and surface temperature was 3.29C.

At 5:10am, we reached station MI23. The surface temperature here was 2.80C and the total depth was 90.5 meters.

8:30am was the arrival time for MI27M. Total depth was 103.0 meters and the surface temperature was 2.59C.

We arrived at MI34 at 12:20pm. The station had a total depth of 155.5 meters and a surface temperature of 2.66C.

We reached our final station of the day, MI32 at 7:10pm. This station had a total depth of 160.3 meters and a surface temperature of 2.5C.

Again, I've included a map of our progress so far.
