Oceanographic Instrumentation

斯基德威海洋研究所将获得一台两轴光纤激光多普勒测速仪（LDV），用于研究底栖边界层。研究海底沉积物和上面的水之间的小尺度动力学需要一个多维的方法。这些研究包括实验室和现场测量程序，以及数值模拟。最近开发的ldv提供了一种非侵入性测量平均速度、沿流和垂直方向湍流强度以及湍流剪切应力的现代方法。LDV流量测量系统将被整合到一个大型水槽研究设施中，该设施正在由机构资助建设。它将服务于美国东南部从事与沉积物地球化学、沉积物运输和底栖生态有关的多学科问题的研究人员。

The Skidaway Institute of Oceanographic will acquire a two- axis, fiber-optic laser doppler velocimeter (LDV) for the study of benthic boundary layers. Studying the small-scale dynamics between seafloor sediments and the water just above requires a multi-dimensional approach. Such studies involve laboratory and field measurement programs, and numerical modelling. Recently developed LDVs offer a modern way to non-invasively measure mean velocities, turbulence intensity in both along-stream and vertical directions, and turbulent shear stress. The LDV flow measurement system will be integrated into a large flume research facility being constructed with institutional funds. It will serve a number of investigators in the Southeastern U.S. working on multidisciplinary problems relating to sediment geochemistry, sediment transport, and benthic ecology.
