Collaborative Research: Integration and Interpretation of the Global WOCE Tritium and Helium Isotope Data Set

9819650 Lott这是来自四个机构的四个PI的一个小组提案的一个组成部分，该提案要求提供资金，以整合、质量控制、传播和开始解释四个美国实验室在世界海洋环流实验水文计划期间收集的全球氚/氦同位素数据集。 PI计划与相应的欧洲团体提出的类似项目进行协调，并将与其他示踪剂计划合作，例如最近资助的分析氯氟烃（CFC）的团队。该项目的主要目标是向海洋学界提供一个综合的、质量受控的数据集，供世界海洋实验的AIMS阶段使用（AIMS =分析、解释、建模和综合）。 不太明确的是，PI建议在一套手稿中总结He/Tr同位素场，以通用格式编写，并包含有关数据集制作的技术信息，以及对这些场的主要特征的科学讨论。随后将确定与其他世界海洋环流实验研究人员合作解决的科学问题。 这个特殊的项目将进行最后的质量控制和分析，并允许原来的PI时间和一些资源来完成他的义务，这一计划。

9819650LottThis is one component of a group proposal among four PIs from four institutions requesting funds to integrate, quality-control, disseminate, and begin the interpretation of the global Tritium/Helium isotope data set collected by four US laboratories during the WOCE (World Ocean Circulation Experiment) Hydrographic Program. PIs plan to coordinate with a similar project proposed by the corresponding European groups, and will also collaborate with other tracer programs, such as the recently-funded team analyzing ChlorofluoroCarbons (CFC). The main goal of the project is to make an integrated, quality-controlled data set available to the oceanographic community for use in the AIMS phase of WOCE (AIMS = Analysis, Interpretation, Modeling, and Synthesis). Less explicitly, the PIs propose to summarize the He/Tr isotope fields in a set of manuscripts, written in common format and containing technical information on the production of the data sets, as well as scientific discussion of the main features of the fields. These would be followed by the identification of scientific issues to be addressed collaboratively with other WOCE investigators. This particular project will carry out final quality control and analysis, and allow the original PI time and some resources to complete his obligations to this program.
