Applying for Sea Time

Transit Voyages

Each year RV Southern Surveyor undertakes a number of transit voyages between the ports where one research voyage finishes and the next commences. Between July 2010 and June 2011 Southern Surveyor will undertake five transit voyages.

The RV Southern Surveyor provides an opportunity for researchers, early career researchers and students to carry out underway or opportunistic science during transit voyages. There are two programs available Next Wave (for early career researchers and students) and Transit Voyage Science Program (for researchers). Any transit voyage may accommodate both Next Wave and Transit Voyage Science.Transit voyages 2010/11SS2010_T02  11-20/08/10    Fremantle – Hobart
SS2010_T03   17-21/09/10   Hobart – Sydney
SS2010_T04    03-07/11/10  Sydney – Hobart
SS2011_T01   19-26/05/11   Hobart – Brisbane

Applications are now open for both programs. Applications must be received by 17:00 Friday 19 March 2010.  Applicants will be advised of the status of their application by 30 March 2010.

Call for Applications

Universities and agencies that provide marine science education are encouraged to submit applications for participation in Next Wave voyages. Activities oriented toward the collection and analysis of data and samples while the vessel is underway are most suited to transit voyages. Institutions are encouraged to develop programs of training and education for onboard delivery that integrate with campus based studies.
