SGER: Coded Pulse Doppler Sonar on WOCE Line 13

作为世界海洋环流实验（WOCE）的一部分，将沿着南北样带（P-13线）在太平洋200米以上测量海流和内波场的精细结构。测量将使用新开发的相干多普勒电流剖面仪和非常精确的导航系统进行。这项研究将提供一个令人兴奋的300米高空快照，显示风力驱动的洋流、中尺度涡流、内波和惯性波相对于平均环流的重要性。这种新颖的方法可能会改变我们在整个盆地范围内观察上层海洋变化的方式。

The fine-scale structure of currents and internal wave field will be measured in the upper 200 m of the Pacific Ocean along a North- South transect (Line P-13) as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). The measurements will be made with a newly developed coherent Doppler current profiler and a very accurate navigation system. This study will provide an exciting snapshot of the upper 300 m showing the importance of wind-driven currents, mesoscale eddies, internal and inertial waves relative to the mean circulation. This novel approach could change the way we view variability in the upper ocean on a basin-wide scale.
