Deployment: MedFlux_SedTrap_2003_P2

MedFlux sampling was carried out near the French JGOFS DYFAMED (DYnamique des Flux Atmospheriques en MEDiterranee) site (43 25 N, 7 52 E) in the Ligurian Sea (northwestern Mediterranean), 52 km off Nice in 2300 meters water depth.  The P2 designation refers to Period 2, the second deployment of the MedFlux sediment trap mooring at this location.  The P2 mooring was deployed on 14 May 2003 during a Seward Johnson II cruise, and recovered on 30 June 2003 during a Tethys II cruise. The P2 mooring was located at 43.3 North, 7.7 East and had sediment traps at 117 and 1918 meters.
