Support for SCICEX Special Data Acquisition

这份跨部门协议与美国海军核潜艇年度科学巡航有关。 它将支付北极潜艇实验室支持特殊数据采集的预期费用。 请求提供的资金用于以下方面： a）支持非基线临时变更（TEMPALT）。 它们是重力仪系统（包括数据采集系统）、声学多普勒海流剖面仪（ADCP）、零角光度计系统（ZAPS）、浓缩器/过滤系统和鱼雷室采样系统的在线采样歧管改造。 北极潜艇实验室将执行以下任务： 1)与研究者沟通，以确定其TEMPALT的范围和细节。 2)准备和/或修改TEMPALT图纸和其他支持文件，以提交给海军海上系统司令部批准安装这些系统。 3)制作一个用于安装ADCP窗口的锁紧环。 4)制造在线样品歧管。 B）购买一次性电导-温度-深度（U/I SSXCTD）探头。 目前的规划要求在部署前测试和科学数据收集期间支出139个探测器。 海军提供了59个这样的探测器。 因此，预算要求购买80个探头。 参与的科学家表示希望潜艇携带更多的探测器，以增加在某些特别感兴趣的地区进行更密集采样的可能性。 可以以相同的每个探针成本提供多达95个探针。

This Interagency Agreement is related to the U.S. Navy nuclear submarine yearly science cruise. It will cover Arctic Submarine Laboratory's anticipated expenses in support of Special Data Acquisition. This funding is being requested to cover the following: a) Support for non-baseline Temporary Alternations (TEMPALTs). These are the Gravimeter System (including the Data Acquisition System), the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP), the Zero Angle Photometer System (ZAPS), the Concentrator/Filtration System, and the In-line Sample Manifold modification to the Torpedo Room Sampling System. The Arctic Submarine Laboratory will perform the following tasks: 1) Interface with investigators to determine the scope and details of their TEMPALTs. 2) Prepare and /or modify TEMPALT drawings and other supporting documentation for submission to Naval Sea Systems Command for approval to install these systems. 3) Fabricate a locking ring for mounting of the ADCP window. 4) Fabricate the In-Line Sample Manifold. b) Purchase the expendable conductivity-temperature-depth (U/I SSXCTD) probes. The current planning calls for the expenditure of 139 probes during pre-deployment testing and scientific data collection. The Navy is providing 59 of these probes. Therefore, the budget calls for the purchase of 80 probes. The participating scientists have expressed a desire for the submarine to carry additional probes to increase the potential for denser sampling in certain areas of special interest. As many as 95 probes can be provided at the same per-probe cost.
