Oceanographic Instrumentation

罗得岛大学海洋学研究生院 将获得几项海洋学仪器， 放置在共用设备池中。 本设备 为在R/V奋进号上使用或与R/V奋进号联合使用而维护的， 由NSF拥有并由大学运营的研究船。 该船1988年的大部分作业时间表是 支持NSF赞助的研究项目。 仪器a- 这也将提高船舶的能力， 大学支持研究和工程活动。 的 仪器包括： - 船上遥感计算机和图像显示设备， 为船上的科学家提供近乎实时的数据， 从卫星， - 浅水CTD，用于精确测量海水 温度和电导率作为深度的函数， - CTD甲板控制单元， - 荧光计，用于测量植物中的叶绿素和其他色素， 水柱， - 水取样瓶，以及 - 一部减压电脑，以加强海上潜水的安全 潜水作业。 上述仪器将提高 该组织支持NSF赞助的研究， 工程项目。

The Graduate School of Oceanography at the Univ. of Rhode Island will acquire several items of oceanographic instrumentation to be placed in a pool of shared use equipment. This equipment is maintained for use on or in association with the R/V ENDEAVOR, a research vessel owned by the NSF and operated by the university. A substantial part of the ship's operating schedule during 1988 is in support of NSF-sponsored research projects. The instrumenta- tion will also increase the capabilities of the ship and of the University to support research and engineering activities. The instrumentation includes: -Shipboard Remote Sensing Computer and image display equipment to provide scientists on board with near real-time data collected from satellites, -shallow-water CTD for making precision measurements of seawater Temperature and Conductivity as a function of Depth, -a CTD deck control unit, -a fluorometer for measuring chlorophyll and other pigments in the water column, -water sampling bottles, and -a decompression computer for enhancing safety of at-sea SCUBA diving operations. The instrumentation described above will increase the capability of the organization to support NSF-sponsored research and engineering projects.
