MRI: Real Time Ocean Observations

PI正在申请资金，用于购买几件船基海洋学设备，包括：电导率、温度和深度系统（CTD）;声学多普勒海流剖面仪（ADCP）;航行数据采集系统（UDAS）;连续航行鱼卵采样器（CUFES）;以及气象设备。 拟议的仪器将安装在R/V珊瑚海上，由洪堡州立大学拥有和运营，目前缺乏这种标准的研究船仪器（除了CUFES系统），并将用于支持教师研究，学生培训和海洋观测工作。 更广泛的影响拟议的仪器将支持该提案的强有力的教育组成部分（课程和学生研究机会），以及使内部和外部研究人员和教育工作者的船舶的研究能力增加。 拟议的仪器收集的观测数据也将用于支持国家海洋观测主干网。

The PI is requesting funding for the acquisition of several pieces of ship-based oceanographic equipment including: conductivity, temperature and depth system (CTD); acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP); underway data acquisition system (UDAS); continuous underway fish egg samplers (CUFES); and meteorological equipment. The proposed instrumentation will be installed on board the R/V Coral Sea, owned and operated by Humboldt State University, which currently lacks this standard research vessel instrumentation (apart from the CUFES system), and will be used to support faculty research, student training, and ocean observing efforts. Broader ImpactsThe proposed instrumentation will support the strong educational component of the proposal (coursework and student research opportunities), as well as enable increased research capabilities of the vessel for internal and external researchers and educators. The observations collected by the proposed instrumentation will also be used to support the national ocean observing backbone.
