A Quantitative Physical Laboratory for Research and Education in Atmosphere and Ocean Sciences

0215735荷兰这个授予纽约大学库兰特数学科学研究所的主要研究仪器奖提供资金，用于购买用于地球物理流体动力学实验研究的仪器，特别是关注大气和海洋过程的定量方面。将购买的具体仪器包括粒子图像测速仪(PIV)和平面激光诱导荧光工具(PLIF)以及相关的储罐、过滤器和管道装置，从而能够在受控条件下准确评估和测量三维流动特性。该仪器将安装在现有的地球物理流体转台上使用。新的仪器将为测试和验证模型和理论提供重要的实验能力，并为大气-海洋科学中心的学生提供一套重要的实验室研究工具。该项目得到了国家科学基金会海洋科学部的支持。纽约大学将从非联邦基金中为项目总成本的30%提供成本分摊支持。

0215735HollandThis Major Research Instrumentation award to New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences provides funds for acquisition of instrumentation for experimental research in geophysical fluid dynamics, especially focusing on quantitative aspects of atmosphere and ocean processes. Specific instruments to be acquired include a particle image velocimeter (PIV) and a planar laser induced fluorescence tool (PLIF) plus associated tanks, filters and plumbing fixtures, allowing accurate evaluation and measurement of 3-dimensional flow properties under controlled conditions. The instrumentation will be mounted for use on an existing geophysical fluid rotating table. The new instrumentation will provide an important experimental capability for testing and validating model and theory, as well as an important set of tools for laboratory studies by students in the Center for Atmosphere-Ocean Science. The project is supported by the Division of Ocean Sciences at NSF. New York University will provide cost-share support from non-federal funds for 30% of total project costs.***
