HUGO: The Hawaii Undersea Geo-Observatory, System Augmentation

小行星9724465 该项目将提高安全性和实用性的海底 在夏威夷附近安装了一个名为“雨果-夏威夷海底”的天文台 地球观测站。HUGO的主要组成部分，包括海岸 车站，大岛和Loihi之间的主电缆安装， 和接线盒由OCE提供。45公里电缆 由AT T捐赠给大学 因为洛伊希是一名特工 火山，因为它是可取的雨果生存，只要 如果可能的话，主电缆的接线盒终端将 被安置在一个相对安静的地区，距离该地区约一英里， 在1996年7月至8月的火山活动期间最为活跃。 为建造和安装HUGO多路复用节点提供资金 (Mux)连接到接线盒并放置在 活动区域此多路复用器将立即提供一个连接点 在活动区域内进行超过11次实验， 有可能在以后扩展到另外38个实验。 时间如果Loihi活动破坏个人实验或这 MUX，更换将相对简单， 许多电缆回到接线盒。 雨果将成为世界上第一个真正的海底 天文台，提供必要的基础设施， 来自多个学科的科学家在一个 特别有趣且充满活力的地点。雨果将拥有 可容纳60多个实验，提供5千瓦 电力的首脑会议接线盒，并收集 通过五根光纤以2，000的标称速率传输实时数据 在45公里的电光缆上每实验每秒采样。

9724465 Duennebier This project will enhance the safety and utility of an undersea observatory being installed off Hawaii named HUGO - Hawaii Undersea Geo Observatory. The main components of HUGO, including the shore station, main cable installation between the Big Island and Loihi, and the junction box, are being provided by OCE. The 45 km cable was donated to the University by AT&T. Because Loihi is an active volcano, and because it is desirable for HUGO to survive as long as possible, the junction box termination of the main cable will be placed in a relatively quiet region about one mile from the area most active during the July-August, 1996, volcanic event. Funds are provided to build and install a HUGO Multiplexing Node (Mux) to be connected to the junction box and placed within the active area. This Mux will immediately provide a connection point for more than 11 experiments within the active area, with a potential for expanding to an additional 38 experiments at a later time. Should Loihi activity destroy individual experiments or this MUX, replacement will be relatively simple compared to replacing many cables back to the junction box. HUGO will be one of the world's first true ocean floor observatories, supplying the infrastructure necessary for scientists from many disciplines to perform experiments at a particularly interesting and dynamic location. HUGO will have the potential to accommodate more than 60 experiments, supplying 5 kW of electrical power to the summit junction box, and collecting real-time data over five optical fibers at nominal rates of 2,000 samples/sec per experiment over a 45 km electro-optical cable.
