Oceanographic Instrumentation

这项授予加州大学圣地亚哥分校的合同将为斯克里普斯海洋研究所的海洋数据设施提供海洋学研究的仪器，并为该研究所运营的R/VS Revelle、Melville、New Horizon和Sproul四艘研究船提供具体的仪器。所有这四艘考察船都是作为大学-国家海洋实验室系统研究船队的一部分由该大学运营的。将购置的具体仪器包括用于在航数据采集的新型气象传感器、用于CTD系统的新型透射计、温度计和高度计、用于船上计算机网络的新型服务器、用于获取姿态和速度数据的替代GPS系统、以及Grab采样器和深海脉冲探测仪。这里支持的共用仪器将帮助海洋科学家在2001年和未来几年在世界各地的SIO和其他研究船上进行研究。*

All four of these research vessels are operated by the university as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. Specific instrumentation to be acquired includes new meteorological sensors for underway data acquisition, new transmissometers, thermometers and altimeters for use with CTD systems, new servers for shipboard computer networks, a replacement GPS system for attitude and speed data acquisition, and a grab sampler and deep ocean pinger. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies worldwide on SIO and other research vessels during 2001 and future years.***
