This preliminary report outlines the data collected in 2007 in the equatorial Pacific Ocean during cruises to service the TAO/TRITON array, a network of deep ocean moored buoys deployed to support ENSO research and forecasting. The TAO/TRITON array, completed in 1994, consists of approximately 70 deep ocean moorings within 8 degrees of the equator spanning the Pacific Basin from 95 W to 137 E. Moorings west of 165 E are maintained by the Japan Agency for Marine Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC).
The report gives an overview of the research cruise on board R/V Kilo Moana for the cruise name EUCFe. Study was conducted to determine the distributions of iron,manganese and aluminum in a zonal section along the equatorial Pacific from 140°W to 145°E and along the coast of Papua New Guinea.
