Acquisition of an Integrated System of Shipboard Profiling and Surveying Instrumentation for Interdisciplinary Studies in Shallow Tropical and Sub-Tropical Marine Environments

这份授予佛罗里达州迈阿密大学的合同将为一艘正在建造的新海岸研究船上的海洋学研究提供仪器，以取代R/V Calanus。这艘新船将由罗森斯蒂尔海洋与大气科学学院运营，作为大学-国家海洋实验室系统研究船队的一部分。根据海洋科学部的这项主要研究仪器奖，将获得的具体仪器包括一个动态定位系统、运动和位置传感器、一个海底剖面系统、一个带有在线连接仪器的清洁海水系统，用于正在进行的地表水测量、一个用于研究水和浮游生物特性的波动剖面仪，以及一个用于数据采集、分析和显示的光纤网络和相关计算机。这里支持的共享使用仪器将帮助来自美国各种实验室的海洋科学家在大西洋和加勒比海沿海地区进行研究。＊＊＊

9871468 Powell This award to University of Miami in the state of Florida will provide instrumentation for oceanographic research on a new coastal research vessel being built to replace R/V Calanus. The new vessel will be operated by Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. Specific instruments to be acquired under this Major Research Instrumentation award from the Division of Ocean Sciences include a dynamic position system, motion and position sensors, a subbottom profiling system, a clean sea water system with inline attachment of instruments for underway surveying of surface waters, an undulating profiler for study of water and plankton properties, and a fiber optic network and associated computers for data acquisition, analysis and display. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists from a wide variety of US laboratories conduct studies in coastal regions of the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. ***
