Oceanographic Instrumentation

这项授予加州大学圣地亚哥分校的合同将提供用于海洋研究的仪器，供斯克里普斯海洋研究所的海洋数据设施使用，以及用于该机构运营的四艘研究船R/VS Revelle、Melville、New Horizon和Sproul的具体仪器。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一个用于R/V New Horizon的声学海流剖面仪、一个磁强计、两个便携式液体闪烁计数器、一个用于样品存储的冷冻箱、两个荧光计、一个用于30升采样瓶的花环系统和一个用于地震反射剖面的数据采集系统。这里支持的共用仪器将帮助海洋科学家在2003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 an acoustic current profiler for R/V New Horizon, a magnetometer, two portable liquid scintillation counters, a freezer for sample storage, two fluorometers, a rosette system for 30-liter sampling bottles with the CTD system, and a data acquisition system for seismic reflection profiling. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies worldwide on SIO and other research vessels during 2003 and future years.***
