Velocity Measurements in the Malvinas Current

9503818皮尔斯伯里在这个项目中，PI将在1996年和1997年期间测量阿根廷大陆斜坡上42°S附近的接近底部的速度。将部署9个不同深度的系泊设备，从200米到5200米不等，使用新开发的消耗型矢量平均海流计，每个系泊设备上从底部起50米处安装温度和压力传感器。数据将由部署一年后发布的Argos发射器检索。第二套仪器将在第一年后部署。A.Piola博士和阿根廷海军水文局将提供船只支持，并在每次部署巡航期间进行水文学测量。这是一项合作研究，在这个奖项中，参与消耗性海流计开发的主要PI将主要负责制造和部署消耗性海流计和系泊设备

9503818 Pillsbury In this project, the PIs will measure near-bottom velocities across the Argentine continental slope near 42 deg S. during 1996 and 1997. Nine moorings at nine different depths, ranging from 200m to 5200m will be deployed, using a newly-developed expendable vector-averaging current meter, with temperature and pressure sensors at a height of 50m from the bottom on each mooring. Data will be retrieved by an ARGOS transmitter released after one year's deployment. A second set of instruments will be deployed after the first year. Ship support will be provided by Dr. A. Piola and the Argentine Naval Hydrographic Service, and hydrographic surveys will be conducted during each deployment cruise. This is a collaborative study, and in this award the PI, who has been the primary PI involved in the development of the expendable current meters will have primary responsibility for fabricating and deploying the expendable current meters and mooring
