Tritium-Helium Analyses for the MOC/ACCE

9531865 詹金斯 在这个项目中，PI将参加两次水文调查，作为大西洋环流和气候实验（ACCE）的一部分，这是美国对国际世界海洋环流实验（WOCE）的贡献。 1997年夏季，这两项调查将覆盖北大西洋中/西部盆地，沿沿着52度和66度。 具体而言，PI将提供支持，收集和分析水样中氦-3和氚的含量，以便利用它们研究水团的形成和循环，时间范围从几个月到几十年不等。 这一时间尺度对于ACCE的总体目标至关重要。

9531865 Jenkins In this project the PI will participate in two hydrographic surveys as part of the Atlantic Circulation and Climate Experiment (ACCE), a U.S. contribution to the International World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). The two surveys will cover the central/western basin of the North Atlantic along 52deg W and 66deg W during the summer of 1997. Specifically, the PI will provide support to collect and analyze water samples for their content of Helium-3 and Tritium in order to use them to study water mass formation and circulation on time scales ranging from a few months to a few decades. This time scale is critical to the overall objectives of ACCE.
