Current Profiling on WOCE Hydrographic Program Pacific Sections

在这个项目中，作为世界海洋环流实验(WOCE)的一部分，PI将在1992-1993年期间沿五条水文线路使用声学多普勒海流剖面仪(ADCP)获得上层海洋速度结构的测量结果。这五条线路被WOCE指定为P-13、16S、17S、17E和19。P-13计划于1992年8月开始，其余线路从1992年10月开始。直接速度测量将提供参考速度，以与由水文地质学得出的速度进行比较，并确定小尺度、高频变异性。还建议进一步测试用于航道铸模的降低型ADCP。

In this project, the PI will obtain measurements of upper ocean velocity structure, using an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP), along five hydrographic lines during 1992-1993, as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). The five lines are designated by WOCE as P-13, 16S, 17S, 17E, and 19. P-13 is scheduled for August, 1992, with the remainder starting in October, 1992. The direct velocity measurements will provide reference velocities against which to compare those derived from hydrography, and to determine the small-scale, high-frequency variability. Also proposed is further testing of a lowered ADCP for use on hydrographic casts.
