17N: A WOCE Hydrographic Program Section in the Western Indian Ocean: University of Alaska Fairbanks Participation

小行星9401898 该项目是对世界海洋环流实验印度洋考察的贡献。 其中，PI将作为联合首席调查员参与阿拉伯海水文测量，表示为WOCE线，I-7 N。 然后，主要研究者将参与分析和综合作为IOE的一部分收集的这些和其他部分的数据。 目标是描述水的特性，速度结构，并认为存在于该地区的边界流的运输。 这些观测结果将为首次测量印度洋的赤道倾覆率提供基础。 ***

9401898 Musgrave This project is a contribution to the Indian Ocean Expedition (IOE) of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). In it, the PI will participate as a co-principal investigator on the hydrographic survey through the Arabian Sea, denoted as WOCE line, I-7N. The PI will then participate in the analysis and synthesis of the data on these and other sections collected as part of the IOE. Objectives are to describe water characteristics, velocity structure, and transport of the boundary currents thought to exist in the region. The observations will provide the foundation for the first measurements of the meridional overturning rate in the Indian Ocean. ***
