Oceanographic Instrumentation

0097848煤炭授予圣何塞州立大学的这一奖项提供了仪器，以更新和扩大研究船Point Sur的海洋学研究能力，该船由Moss Landing海洋实验室运营，是大学国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）研究船队的一部分。 一个新的波浪形剖面仪，配有生物、物理和化学海洋学观测传感器，将大大提高海洋研究人员研究加州中部边缘中尺度过程的能力。 新的平板显示器和橱柜将改善船舶实验室的空间限制，旋转式水取样器将为水取样提供重要的后备能力。 这些改进将大大有利于海洋科学家在2001年和今后几年使用该船进行研究。

0097848CoaleThis award to San Jose State University provides instrumentation to update and expand the oceanographic research capabilities of the research vessel Point Sur, a ship operated by the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. A new undulating profiler with sensors for biological, physical and chemical oceanographic observations will significantly expand the ability of marine researchers to study mesoscale processes along the central California margin. New flat-screen monitors and cabinets will improve space constraints in the vessel laboratory, and a carousel water sampler will provide important backup capability for water sampling. These improvements will be of substantial advantage to marine scientists using the ship in their research during 2001 and future years.***
