NOAA Ship
Ronald H. Brown
Ronald H. Brown, a state-of-the-art oceanographic and atmospheric research platform, is the largest vessel in the NOAA fleet. With its highly advanced instruments and sensors, Ronald H. Brown travels worldwide supporting scientific studies to increase our understanding of the world's oceans and climate.
One of the ship's first major projects was a year-long "Around the World" cruise. Starting in October 1998 from Seattle, WA, our port calls included: Rodman, Panama; Charleston, SC; Norfolk, VA; Cape Town, South Africa; Port Louis, Mauritius; Male in the Maldives Islands; Singapore; Darwin, Australia; the small island nation of Nauru; Kwajalein, Marshall Islands; Honolulu, HI; Dutch Harbor, AK, and finally, back to Seattle in October 1999. See the links on the Project Archives page to read about our past projects from 1997 - 2003.
Our current projects for 2004 include:
In addition to the field season projects listed above, Ronald H. Brown serves as a remote data collection platform for many on-going studies. These include:
