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.
