WOCE Hydrographic Program: SIO 32 degrees S Pacific CFC Measurements

在该项目中，项目负责人将与另外两个机构的项目负责人合作，对从智利到澳大利亚沿太平洋 32|S 进行的水文测量巡航的三个独立航段收集的水样进行氯氟烃 (CFC)、F-11 和 F-12 的测量，这是世界海洋环流实验 (WOCE) 水文计划 (WHP) 的一部分。 这条线被称为 WOCE 线 P-6。 这个特殊项目将特别关注复活节岛和新西兰之间的中部地区。 数据将用于研究上部水柱的通风和循环，特别是南极中层水。 这项工作还将为 WHP 的所有 CFC 实验室使用的气相 F-11 和 F-12 标准品提供校准。

In this project, the PI will collaborate with PI's from two other institutions to carry out measurements of Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's), F-11 and F-12, from water samples collected on three separate legs of a hydrographic cruise along 32|S in the Pacific from Chile to Australia as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) Hydrographic Program (WHP). This line is referred as WOCE line P-6. This particular project will focus specifically on the central portion between Easter Island and New Zealand. Data will be used to study ventilation and circulation of the upper water column, especially the Antarctic Intermediate Water. This work will also provide calibration of gas phase F-11 and F-12 standards used by all CFC laboratories for the WHP.
