9724432 Wattrus This award to University of Minnesota supports acquisition of a multibeam sonar system for lake floor mapping and an acoustic doppler current profiler for measuring water column velocity. Both systems are portable so they may be used on vessels of opportunity in the Great Lakes and elsewhere (including East Africa and South America, where these investigators have ongoing research projects). In conjunction with these systems, they will acquire a high precision navigation system, which may be operated with both instruments, providing the necessary velocity, heading and motion sensors. This project is supported under the Major Research Instrumentation Program, and includes substantial cost-share towards instrumentation and technician time by University of Minnesota. ***

9724432 Wattrus授予明尼苏达大学的这份合同支持购买用于湖底测绘的多波束声纳系统和用于测量水柱速度的声学多普勒海流剖面仪。 这两个系统都是便携式的，因此可以在五大湖和其他地方（包括东非和南美洲，这些调查人员正在进行研究项目）的机会船上使用。 与这些系统一起，他们将获得一个高精度导航系统，该系统可以与两种仪器一起操作，提供必要的速度，航向和运动传感器。 该项目得到了重大研究仪器计划的支持，其中包括明尼苏达大学对仪器和技术人员时间的大量成本分摊。 ***
