OCEANOGRAPHIC INSTRUMENTATION - 2006

0604786瓦尔登授予马萨诸塞州的伍兹霍尔海洋研究所的这一奖项提供了共享使用的仪器，以显着提高研究船亚特兰蒂斯号、克诺尔号和海洋号的海洋研究能力，这三艘船由WHOI运营，是大学-国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）研究船队的一部分。 具体而言，该合同将为R/V Oceanus提供一套新的气象传感器和一个低温样品储存冷冻箱，为R/V Knorr和Oceanus提供新的去离子水系统，为R/V Knorr提供新的回声探测系统，升级现有的视频浮游生物记录仪并增加一个新的数字视频浮游生物记录仪，这两个项目都可以在任何船只上使用。 这些改进将大大有利于海洋科学家在2006年和今后几年使用这三艘船只或联合国海洋法办事处的任何船只进行研究。

0604786WaldenThis award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts provides shared-use instrumentation to significantly improve the oceanographic research capabilities of the research vessels Atlantis, Knorr and Oceanus, three ships operated by WHOI as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. Specifically, this award will provide a new suite of meteorological sensors and a low temperature sample storage freezer for R/V Oceanus, new deionized water systems for R/Vs Knorr and Oceanus, a new echosounding system for R/V Knorr, upgrades to the existing video plankton recorder and addition of a new digital video plankton recorder, both of these last items usable off any vessel. These improvements will be of substantial advantage to marine scientists using these three ships or for some items, any UNOLS vessel, in their research during 2006 and future years.***
