2nd Leg

Group photo of all scientists aboard the Ron Brown for the second leg of VOCALS-Rex. I am not confident that I know all the last names and affiliations so here is my best shot at labeling everyone.



Front Row: Sarah Tucker(NOAA), Fiamma (WHOI), Leilia Hawkins (Scripps), Tomas (Reading), Rebecca Simpson (Hawaii), Dave Covert (Washington/PMEL), Sean Coburn (Colorado), Carlton (Bigelow), Paquita (Miami)

Second Row: Dave Grant (Teacher at Sea), Xue (Miami)

Back Row: Derrick Coffin (PMEL), Carolina (Chilean Observer), Sergio Pezoa (NOAA), Chris Fairall (NOAA- Chief Scientist), Barry Huebert (Hawaii), Ann Weickmann (NOAA), Me (NCSU), Catherine Hoyle (PMEL), Carlos Moffat (WHOI), Sean Whelen (WHOI), Andy Hind (Bigelow)

Carmen, an oceanographer from Chile was not photographed.

There were 23 scientists on board the Brown, and 27 crew members for a total of 50 people.

We are back in Arica, and are awaiting clearance from immigration/customs before we can get off the ship. I am looking forward to a good meal and a cold beer.
