Collaborative Research: Tritium-Helium Measurements on WOCE Indian Ocean Lines I1-I7N-I9N

在这个项目中，作为WOCE印度洋考察（IOE）的一部分，PI将在WOCE水文计划（WHP）的I-1（北纬10度），I-7N（阿拉伯海）和I-9N（95度和孟加拉湾）收集和分析氦- 3和氚样品。目的是利用He/Tr分布中固有的水团隔离年龄信息来描述和量化温盐环流的强度，并评估通风的程度。

9413158 Top In this project, the PI will collect and analyze samples for Helium- 3 and Tritium on WOCE Hydrographic Program (WHP) sections, I-1 (10degN), I-7N (Arabian Sea), and I-9N (95degE and Bay of Bengal), as part of the WOCE Indian Ocean Expedition (IOE). The objective is to describe and quantify the strength of the thermohaline circulation, using the water mass isolation age information inherent in the He/Tr distributions, and to evaluate the extent of ventilation.
