20 May 2009 – Beaver Army Dock and salt gradient survey

At daybreak we left the anchorage for a journey up river to the Beaver Army Dock at river mile 53. When we arrived we conducted a CTD cast, collected water, and returned to the estuary to complete the salt gradient survey. We conducted several CTD casts in the south channel near the town of Hammond and collected water at salinities of 10, 25, and 17.

We then returned to the anchorage for the night.
