OCE-9617795 ABSTRACT OCE-9617795 The Bermuda Atlantic Time-Series Study (BATS) was established as one of two oceanic time-series observatories under the U.S.Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (the other being the Hawaii Ocean Time- Series) to determine and understand the processes controlling the time-varying flux or carbon and associated biogenic elements in the ocean. With this award, the activities of BATS will continue for another three years. As BATS investigators have done since the mid-1980's, these efforts will include studies of seasonal, interannual, and decadal variations in ocean physics, biology, and chemistry. In particular studies will focus on carbon biogeochemistry and the sea-air flux of carbon dioxide. The overall activity will continue to be a mixture of time-series measurements of critical parameters of oceanic functioning as well as process studies.

OCE-9617795 摘要 OCE-9617795 百慕大大西洋时间序列研究是美国联合全球海洋通量研究下的两个海洋时间序列观测站之一（另一个是夏威夷海洋时间序列），目的是确定和了解控制海洋中随时间变化的通量或碳及相关生物元素的过程。 有了这个奖项，BATS的活动将再持续三年。 正如BATS研究人员自20世纪80年代中期以来所做的那样，这些努力将包括对海洋物理学、生物学和化学的季节性、年际和十年变化的研究。 特别是，研究将侧重于碳地球化学和二氧化碳的海气通量。 总体活动将继续是海洋功能关键参数的时序测量和过程研究的混合。
