9. Remarks :

On Monday 5 May, the equipments for the BG08/13 cruise will be loaded first at 09H. BG08/12 cruise will start loading the equipments at 11H.

On the day of the departure from Zeebrugge, all scientific personnel should be on board by 16H00.

Before the cruise, all labs including the fish lab should be cleared. Laboratory incubators,refrigerator and freezer should be emptied. The scientists from the previous cruise are requestedto clean their laboratories before leaving the ship.

The fish lab freezer and refrigerator should also be emptied to allow for storage of theconsiderable amount of samples to be taken and to be kept frozen or at 4°C during the cruise and the storage of recipients respectively.

Please make sure that there are spare cartridges on board for the Millipore reverse osmosis and Milli-Q water purification system (c/o MUMMOST).

After the present cruise, part of the scientific equipments will be loaded into the laboratory container to be transported back to Zeebrugge before the next cruise starts. The remaining equipments will stay on board in the cargo bay and the samples will be kept in the freezer and/or refrigerator in the fish lab. They will be recovered when the Belgica returns to Zeebrugge after the cruise n° 13.

3. OBJECTIVES OF THE CAMPAIGN Project : Role of pelagic calcification and export of carbonate production in climate change (PEACE – Phase 2) (ULB-ULg-UGent-AWI, Coordinator : L. Chou), funded by the Belgian Federal Science Policy Office. The overall objective of the PEACE project is to evaluate the role in climate regulation of calcification, primary production and export processes during coccolithophorid blooms. We will use a transdisciplinary approach that combines process-oriented field investigations with laboratory experiments and modelling tools. Specific objectives are 1) to study the net ecosystem dynamics during coccolithophorid blooms, 2) to unravel the link between the bacterial community, grazing, transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) dynamics, carbon export and dimethyl sulphide (DMS) cycling during coccolithophorid blooms, 3) to assess the effects of ocean acidification on coccolithophorid metabolism and TEP production, and 4) to model coccolithophorid dynamics and their impact on ocean dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) chemistry. (Project Internet Site: http://www.ulg.ac.be/oceanbio/co2/peace/) 4. AREA OF INVESTIGATION AND SAMPLING STATIONS Northern Gulf of Biscay on the continental shelf and slope region. See Table 1 and Figure 1 in Annex 1 for the locations of sampling stations. 5. SUGGESTED WORKSCHEDULE A tentative cruise schedule (Tables 2 & 3) and work programme is proposed in Annex 1. 6.

Annex 1. Belgica BG08/12 Proposed Cruise Programme

Good weather cruising speed is assumed to be at least 11 knots. However, to be on the safe side and allowing for spare time the calculations are made with 10 knots. The positions of the stations are listed in Table 1. The estimated times of arrival and departure for each station are given in Table 2 for Leg 1 and in Table 3 for Leg 2 respectively. Figure 1 presents an overview of the sampling stations. Sediment samples (boxcores) will be taken at locations where process studies are performed. • The following programme may be subject to modifications depending on the timing, on the

weather conditions, and in particular on the remote sensing data to be transmitted to the ship from PML during the cruise.

• Underway pCO2 measurement will begin in the Channel. • Centrifugation is run whenever possible. • Production cast is to be taken at dawn if possible. • Light penetration profiles should be taken (at approximately 10h, 14h and 19h) at stations

where production measurements are made, if relevant. During these measurements, the bridge will be informed whether to reposition the ship so that the SeaCAT light profiler is not in the shadow of the ship. It is necessary to hold the ship in position when the light measurements are taken.

• Additional CTD casts, plankton nets and boxcoring will be performed if necessary. LEG 1 Departure from Zeebrugge on Monday 5 May 2008 at 17H. Zeebrugge Station 1
