Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler Observations along WOCE Hydrographic Section P21

在这个项目中，PI将使用声学多普勒电流分析器（ADCP）对300米以上的洋流速度进行测量。具体来说，横跨太平洋的测量将在17英尺左右进行！作为世界海洋环流实验（WOCE）的一部分，于1994年春季在美国进行。这条线被称为WOCE水文测量计划线P-21。跨边界流和南太平洋中央环流的测量将解决流的结构和输送问题，为将评估质量、热量和示踪剂预算的反演模型提供约束，并分析风驱动切变的深度。＊＊＊

9301972 Kosro In this project, the PI will to carry out measurements of ocean current velocities in the upper 300 meters, using an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP). Specifically, measurements will be made across the Pacific at about 17!S, during the Spring of 1994 as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). This line is referred to as WOCE Hydrographic Program line P-21. Measurements across boundary currents and in the central gyre of the South Pacific will address the structure and transport of the currents, provide a constraint for inverse models which will evaluate mass, heat, and tracer budgets, and analyze the depth of wind-driven shear. ***
