Planula IV

This is a station vessel, 11.90m long, which operates exclusively in the Bassin d'Arcachon, as the navigation conditions in the channels preclude assignments outside the Bassin. It undertakes research and observation assignments and teaching activities (themed training and introduction to oceanography). The most commonly used gear on board are drag nets, clamshell dredges, plankton nets, bottles, probes and SPIs (sediment profile imagers).
