The California Ocean Time Series - A Pilot Program

该程序是OCE-9302182（R.彼得森， SIO，PI）。 该联合项目的目标是进行一项试验， 快速水文剖面仪（Fast Hydrographic Profiler，FHP） FHP是一个 自主，原型高速车辆，使全深度CTD 由A.布拉德利在WHOI。 因为全深度CTD 与FHP投可以在短短40分钟内完成，FHP是一个非常 有吸引力的仪器，以进一步降低成本的领域 程序. 中试实验的目的是运行FHP 在正在进行的CalCOFI期间， 加州海洋渔业合作调查（California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigation） 为准备FHP及其支持设备、适应 进行CalCOFI测量工作的船舶的齿轮和接头 在一九九三年下半年进行两次为期八天的航游。

This program is a companion project to OCE-9302182 (R. Peterson, SIO, PI). The objective of the joint project is to perform a pilot experiment for the Fast Hydrographic Profiler (FHP). The FHP is an autonomous, prototypical high-speed vehicle to make full-depth CTD profiles developed by A. Bradley at WHOI. Because a full-depth CTD cast with the FHP can be done in just 40 minutes, the FHP is a very attractive instrument for further minimize the cost of the field programs. The aim of the pilot experiment is to run the FHP through a pair of thorough sea trials, during the ongoing CalCOFI (california Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations) program. Funds were granted to prepare the FHP and its support gear, adapt the gear to the ship that does the CalCOFI survey work and joint two separate eight day cruises in the later half of 1993.
