Oceanographic Instrumentation - 1998

小行星9732706瓦尔登 授予马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔海洋学研究所的这项合同将为海洋学研究提供仪器，供R/V Atlantis、R/V Knorr和R/V Oceanus使用，这三艘研究船由伍兹霍尔海洋学研究所运营，是大学-国家海洋学实验室系统研究船队的一部分。需要购买的特定工具包括CTD（电导率-温度-深度）系统以及一套与其配套使用的传感器（高度计、透射计、备用温度和电导率传感器、PAR传感器和用于数据采集的个人计算机）、一台膝上型计算机和用于科学家数据传输的CD-ROM刻录机、多芯取样系统的管架、一个非金属计量块，用于对未受污染的水进行取样;一辆便携式货车，在船上用作冷实验室;以及三个泵，用于对未受污染的海水进行取样。这里支助的共用仪器将协助海洋科学家在1998年和今后几年从世界卫生组织的船只上在世界各地的海洋进行研究。

9732706 Walden This award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts will provide instrumentation for oceanographic research for use on R/V Atlantis, R/V Knorr and R/V Oceanus, the three research vessels operated by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the University-National Oceanographic laboratory System research fleet. Specific instruments to acquired include a CTD (conductivity- temperature-depth) system plus a suite of sensors for use with it (altimeters, transmissometer, spare temperature and conductivity sensors, PAR sensors and personal computer for data acquisition), a laptop computer plus CD-ROM burners for data transfer for scientists, tube holders for a multi- corer sampling system, a non-metal metering block for uncontaminated water sampling, a portable van for use on board ship as a cold laboratory, and three pumps for sampling uncontaminated seawater. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies from the WHOI vessels throughout the world ocean in 1998 and in future years.
