SGER: Coded Pulse Doppler Sonar on WOCE Line 13

海流和内波场的精细尺度结构将 在太平洋上200米处，沿沿着北- 作为世界海洋环流一部分的南样带（P-13线） 实验（WOCE）。测量将使用新的 开发的相干多普勒海流剖面仪和一个非常精确的 导航系统这项研究将提供一个令人兴奋的快照， 上层300米显示了风驱动流的重要性， 中尺度涡旋、内波和惯性波相对于平均值 流通这种新颖的方法可能会改变我们看待 在整个海盆范围内的上层海洋的变化。

The fine-scale structure of currents and internal wave field will be measured in the upper 200 m of the Pacific Ocean along a North- South transect (Line P-13) as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). The measurements will be made with a newly developed coherent Doppler current profiler and a very accurate navigation system. This study will provide an exciting snapshot of the upper 300 m showing the importance of wind-driven currents, mesoscale eddies, internal and inertial waves relative to the mean circulation. This novel approach could change the way we view variability in the upper ocean on a basin-wide scale.
