Oceanographic Instrumentation

加州大学圣地亚哥分校的斯克里普斯海洋学研究所要求将几件海洋仪器放在一个共用设备池中。这一设备的维护是为了在该机构操作的四艘研究船上使用或与之配合使用。1988年期间，这些船的大部分运行计划都是为了支持nsf赞助的研究项目。该仪器还将提高舰船和机构支持研究和工程活动的能力。仪器包括：-用于地震剖面系统的拖臂气枪阵列，-用于连续测量地下循环特征的声学多普勒电流剖面仪，-用于精确测量几种化学参数的自动分析仪，-用于获取海水电导率和温度随深度变化的详细剖面的CTD， -用于显示海底剖面的回声测深仪，以及用于地震气枪阵列的控制系统。加州大学将分担购买这些设备的费用。上述仪器将增加该组织支持nsf赞助的研究和工程项目的能力。

The Scripps Institution of Oceanography of the University of California at San Diego has requested 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 four research vessels operated by the institution. A substantial part of the ships' operating schedules during 1988 is in support of NSF-sponsored research projects. The instrumentation will also increase the capabilities of the ships and of the institution to support research and engineering activities. The instrumentation includes: -Towing boom for an seismic profiling system airgun array, -Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler for continuous measurements of subsurface circulation features, -Autoanalyzer for making precision measurements of several chemical parameters, -A CTD for obtaining detailed profiles of seawater conductivity and temperature as a function of depth, -an echosounder for display of seafloor profiles, and -a control system for a seismic airgun array. The Univrsity of California is cost sharing in the acquisition of this equipment. The instrumentation described above will increase the capability of the organization to support NSF-sponsored research and engineering projects.
