Oceanographic Instrumentation, R/V Cape Hatteras

这份授予杜克大学的合同将为R/V Cape Hatteras提供用于海洋研究的仪器，这艘研究船由杜克大学-北卡罗来纳大学联盟运营，是大学-国家海洋实验室系统研究船队的一部分。需要购买的具体仪器包括用于测量海水特性的CTD系统的荧光计、高度计和传输计传感器，用于采样水的Niskin瓶，用于多盖底部采样器的管架，用于正在进行的水分析系统的除泡器，以及用于底部采样的重力盖。这里支持的共享使用仪器将协助海洋科学家在1998年和今后几年在西大西洋的哈特拉斯角进行研究，主要是沿着美国大西洋中部海域进行研究。

9731732 Ustach This award to Duke University will provide instrumentation for oceanographic research for use on R/V Cape Hatteras, a research vessel operated by the Duke-University of North Carolina Consortium as part of the University-National Oceanographic laboratory System research fleet. Specific instruments to be acquired include fluorometer, altimeter and transmissometer sensors for use with the CTD system for measuring sea water properties, Niskin bottles for sampling water, tube holders for use with the multi-corer bottom sampler, a debubbler for use in the underway water analysis system, and a gravity corer for bottom sampling. The shared- use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies from R/V Cape Hatteras in the western Atlantic Ocean, principally along the central Atlantic cost of the United States, in the 1998 and in future years.
