Oceanographic Instrumentation

德克萨斯农工大学海洋学院将 购置若干海洋学仪器， 放置在共用设备池中。 本设备 在R/V GYRE上使用或与R/V GYRE结合使用，a 由大学经营的研究船。 大幅 1989年该船的部分运营时间表是在 支持NSF赞助的研究项目。 的 仪器仪表也将增加的能力， 船舶和机构的支持研究和 工程活动。 仪器包括： - 声学多普勒海流剖面仪， 地下环流特征的测量，以及 - 用于测量叶绿素浓度的透射计， 水柱中的其他光学特性。 上述仪器将增加 组织支持NSF赞助的 研究和工程项目。

The College of Oceanography at Texas A&M University 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 R/V GYRE, a research vessel operated by the University. A substantial part of the ship's operating schedule during 1989 is in support of NSF-sponsored research projects. The instrumentation will also increase the capabilities of the ship and of the institution to support research and engineering activities. The instrumentation includes: -Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler for making continuous measurements of subsurface circulation features, and a -Transmissometer for measuring chlorophyll concentration and other optical properties in the water column. The instrumentation described above will increase the capability of the organization to support NSF-sponsored research and engineering projects.
