9313670 Brink The GLOBEC NW Atlantic/Georges Bank observational program is planned to last for 4.5 years, beginning in 1994. As part of this effort, Dr. Brink and colleagues will deploy three moorings throughout the period at the Bank center, on the northwestern end, and on the south flank. All moorings would measure currents, temperature, conductivity, phytoplankton proxies (fluorescence and light transmission) and photosynthetically available radiation. Most deployments will use acoustic Doppler current profilers which also allow estimates of zooplankton stocks. The central mooring will be equipped with a complete suite of meteorological sensors. This project will also deploy Argos tracked drifters on each of the broad scale hydrographic cruises. The drifters will provide quantitative estimates of water residence times and preferred exit sites from the Bank. This measurement program will provide continuous records of the physical and biological status of waters over the Bank, and a context for all other measurements made during the GLOBEC Georges Bank study. The data base will be used to understand the effects of advection and stratification on the plankton population over the Bank. ***

GLOBEC西北大西洋/乔治滩观测项目计划从1994年开始，持续4.5年。作为这项工作的一部分，布林克博士及其同事将在整个期间在世行中心、西北端和南翼部署三个系泊点。所有系泊都将测量洋流、温度、电导率、浮游植物代用物（荧光和光透射）和光合作用可用辐射。大多数部署将使用声波多普勒电流分析器，它也可以估计浮游动物种群。中央系泊将配备一套完整的气象传感器。该项目还将在每次大规模的水文巡航中部署Argos跟踪漂船。漂流者将向世行提供关于在水中停留时间和首选出口地点的定量估计。这一测量项目将提供该银行水域物理和生物状况的连续记录，并为GLOBEC乔治银行研究期间进行的所有其他测量提供背景。该数据库将用于了解平流和分层对浅滩上浮游生物种群的影响。＊＊＊
