Question: Where are all of the upcoming NOAA cruise schedules?
Answer: NOAA has requested that all upcoming cruise information be temporarilly supressed. To obtain future schedule information please see their web site for contact information.
Question: How
can I create a link on my web page to point to the specifications and
cruise schedules for my ship on your web site?
Answer: Browse to the page that you're interested
in linking to and use the URL or Address that's listed in your browsers
address line as the hyperlink on your web page. For instance, to create
a hyperlink
to the Cape Henlopen 2000 schedule
like this, you would create html code like:
http://www.researchvessels.org/ship_sea.asp?shipid=75&y_search=2000&Graph=ON
&sortby=depdate&submit=Begin+Search&agency=none&project=none&experiment=none&
pi=none&country=none&discipline=none&genarea=none&grid=none
Question: What
happened to all the original International Research Ship Schedules and
Information pages and the data and pictures that they contained?
Answer: The data that was organized by country in
the original Ships pages is still intact. A link to it is accessible via
the home page and by browsing to the Country
page. Many of the original photographs and some older cruise schedules
are available there but many of the links to other ship-related sites
are quite old and the pages they link to might not be available any longer.
Question: Why
aren't there a lot more graphics and other fancy effects on your pages?
Answer: As the number of graphic images on a site
increase, so does the amount of time it takes to download, display and
print those images. Many areas of the US and the world still rely on dial-up
lines to connect to the internet. In addition, ships are starting to connect
to the internet from sea, a very costly and slow task. So it was decided
to keep the bandwidth and download time requirements light to save these
individuals time and money.
