Oceanographic Instrumentation

迈阿密大学罗森斯泰尔海洋和大气科学学院将购买几件海洋仪器，放入共享设备池中。该设备的维护是为了在该机构运营的两艘考察船上使用或与两艘考察船联合使用。1988年期间，这两艘船的大部分运营计划都是为了支持国家科学基金会赞助的研究项目。该仪器还将提高船只和大学支持研究和工程活动的能力。该仪器包括：-磁盘驱动系统和其他外围设备，用于增加共享使用、海上计算能力，-用于收集作为深度函数的精确温度和电导率数据的设备(CTD)的甲板控制单元，-用于CTD的精密温度传感器，-用于改进溶解氧测量的探头和固件，-用于在船舶在航时持续监测和记录海面温度和盐度的温度测定仪，-更换用于在特定深度收集离散海水样本的水样瓶，以及-不间断电源实验室计算机设备。上述仪器将提高研究所支持NSF赞助的研究和工程项目的能力。

The Rosensteil School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Miami will acquire several items of oceanographic instrumentation to be placed in a pool of shared use equipment. This equipment is maintained for use on or in association with the two research vessels the institution operates. A substantial part of the ships' operating schedule during 1988 is in support of NSF-sponsored research projects. The instrumentation will also increase the capabilities of the ships and of the University to support research and engineering activities. The instrumentation includes: -A disk drive system and other peripheral equipment for increasing shared-use, sea-going computing capabilities, -a deck control unit for a device (CTD) that collects precision Temperature and Conductivity data as a function of Depth, -precision temperature sensors for the CTD, -probe and firmware for improving dissolved oxygen measurements, -a thermosalinograph for continuously monitoring and recording sea surface temperature and salinity while the ship is underway, -replacement water sampling bottles for collecting discrete seawater samples at specific depths, and -an uninterruptable power supply laboratory computer equipment. The instrumentation described above will increase the capability of the Institution to support NSF-sponsored research and engineering projects.
