EXPEDITION SUMMARY:  
  Oahu-2 consisted of a series of day cruises aboard the R/V Klaus Wyrtki.  Test deployments of the NuRADS package were successful.  Bio-optical data were collected with NuRADS, FOS, AC-9, MicroPro, and Chelsea fluorometer for intercomparison purposes during Oahu-2.  Water samples for pigment analyses were also collected.

MOBY219 and MOBY220 were successfully recovered and deployed, respectively, on 25 May.  Two bio-optical data stations occurred on 26 - 27 May.  Nonfunctioning underwater sensors on the meteorological buoy were pulled on 27 May.
