Oceanographic Instrumentation

0203502诺克斯授予圣地亚哥加州大学的这一合同将提供海洋学研究仪器，供斯克里普斯海洋学研究所海洋学数据设施使用，并提供具体仪器，供该研究所经营的四艘研究船上使用，即R/Vs Revelle号、梅尔维尔号、新地平线号和斯普劳尔号。 所有这四艘研究船都由该大学运营，作为大学国家海洋学实验室系统研究船队的一部分。需要购置的具体仪器包括一个用于监测船只姿态的全球定位系统装置、一个温盐仪、十六台船上使用的计算机、两个新的CTD（电导率-温度-深度）系统（带有用于水取样的转盘）、三个电导率/温度/泵组（用于CTD）、三个新的氧传感器、自动滴定仪系统的升级以及拖曳式波浪形潜水器系统的新电缆和整流罩。 此处支持的共用仪器将协助海洋科学家在2002年和今后几年在世界各地的SIO和其他研究船上进行研究。

0203502KnoxThis award to University of California at San Diego will provide instrumentation for oceanographic research for use by the Oceanographic Data Facility of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, as well as specific instruments for use on the four research vessels operated by the institution, R/Vs Revelle, Melville, New Horizon and Sproul. All four of these research vessels are operated by the university as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. Specific instrumentation to be acquired includes a GPS unit for vessel attitude monitoring, a thermosalinograph, sixteen computers for shipboard use, two new CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) systems with carousels for water sampling, three conductivity/temperature/pump sets for use with the CTDs, three new oxygen sensors, upgrades for autotitrator systems, and new cable and fairing for the towed, undulating vehicle system. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies worldwide on SIO and other research vessels during 2002 and future years.***
