About

This voyage departs Fremantle and follows the 110°E meridional section toward the East Antarctic slope region without entering the continental shelf.

The cruise includes CTD/LADCP sections, mooring recovery and deployment around KM3, XCTD observations, and physical–biogeochemical measurements near the seasonal ice edge.

After completing the slope and offshore work, the vessel proceeds north toward Hobart.
