Oceanographic Instrumentation - 2007

0717550费斯切拉该奖项授予马萨诸塞州的伍兹霍尔海洋研究所，提供共享使用的仪器，以显着提高研究船亚特兰蒂斯号、克诺尔号和海洋号的海洋研究能力，这三艘船由WHOI运营，是大学-国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）研究船队的一部分。 具体而言，该合同将提供一个Ku波段卫星通信系统，为海洋号研究船的科学家和船员提供7 x24互联网接入，以及电池和对现有低声海流剖面仪的升级，用于记录CTD操作期间电缆底部受力的负载销，用于航海水文货车的新盐度计和氧气滴定系统，备用电机和潜水泵头，用于深水取样、acotusic释放，以及海洋号R/V的新姿态/航向传感器系统。 这些改进将大大有利于海洋科学家在2007年和今后几年利用这三种方法进行研究。

0717550FisichellaThis award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts provides shared-use instrumentation to significantly improve the oceanographic research capabilities of the research vessels Atlantis, Knorr and Oceanus, three ships operated by WHOI as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. Specifically, this award will provide a Ku-band satellite communication system offering 7x24 Internet access to scientists and crew of R/V Oceanus from sea, as well as batteries and upgrades to existing lowered acoustic current profilers, load pins to document forces on the bottom of the cable during CTD operations, a new salinometer and oxygen titration system for use in the seagoing hydrographic van, spare motor and head for submersible pumps for deep-water sampling, acotusic releases, and a new attitude/heading sensor system for R/V Oceanus. These improvements will be of substantial benefit to marine scientists using these three in their research during 2007 and future years.
