				lower half; Brookhaven instrument package; 
				Nonresponsive mooring: 1 (USGS #314 
				deployed #86017 GYRE Aug 21-Sep 2, 1986); 
				CTD: 95; Suspended sediment samples:282; 
				Oxygen samples:92
			Purpose:
				    The OCEANUS cruise was part of a 
				continuing study of the hydrography, 
				circulation and sediment transport in 
				the Gulf of Maine.  The specific objectives 
				of the cruise were to:  1.) Conduct 
				a detailed hydrographic survey of the 
				Gulf of Maine; 2.) Recover 2 moorings 
				in the Northeast Channel; 3.) Deploy 
				1 subsurface mooring in Rodgers Pass; 
				4.) Deploy instrumentation (3 tripods, 
				1 subsurface mooring and 3 surface buoys)
