0002128DonohueIn this project, the PIs will analyze data from Acoustic Doppler Profilers (ADCP) used during the Indian Ocean Survey carried out as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). Shipboard ADCPs provided high resolution sections of velocity in the upper 300 meters along the survey lines. Lowered ADCPs (LADCP) provided full depth profiles at every hydrographic station along the tracks. The central objective is to describe the ocean current field in the Indian Ocean, with emphasis on the deep lowered ADCP data set. The study will also include use of other parameters measured such as temperature, salinity, chemical tracers, float and drifter tracks, satellite altimetric sea level measurements, etc. Observed currents will be compared with numerical general circulation model output to evaluate the models' ability to mimic the phenomena and dynamics of the ocean.

0002128 Donohue在这个项目中，PI将分析作为世界海洋环流实验（WOCE）一部分的印度洋调查期间使用的声学多普勒剖面仪（ADCP）的数据。 船上ADCP提供了沿勘测线沿着上方300米的高分辨率速度剖面。 降低ADCP（LADCP）提供了所有水文站沿沿着轨道的完整深度剖面。 中心目标是描述印度洋的洋流场，重点是深降低ADCP数据集。 这项研究还将包括使用其他测量参数，如温度，盐度，化学示踪剂，浮子和漂流物的轨迹，卫星测高海平面测量等，观测到的电流将与数值大气环流模型的输出进行比较，以评估模型的能力，以模拟海洋的现象和动态。
