Item Description
Beginning in the Marshall Islands on May 1, Leg 1 investigated the little studied Western Pacific Garbage Patch, arriving in Tokyo three weeks later. During their scheduled layover and crew change, an International Scientific Symposium was held with Captain Charles Moore as one of the speakers. Leg 2 departed Tokyo 10 days past schedule on June 10. Delayed initially by a spate of mechanical difficulties, Mother Nature’s whirlwind side followed suit with Typhoon Mawar for a good number of days.
