Deep sea navigation techniques     

K. G. Robertson 《Marine Geophysical Researches》1990,12(1-2):3-8

Accurate navigation forms an essential part of all research at sea and the deep ocean imposes it's own unique problems. This chapter discusses several of the techniques in current use on the research vessels of the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), concentrating on those systems which provide global navigation facilities, as opposed to the more localised, coastal aids. Whilst most of the systems rely on surface propagation of radio waves, the use of acoustics and sea-bed mapping instruments constitute accurate alternatives for some sub-sea applications.  相似文献   

Sea ice characteristics between the middle Weddell Sea and the Prydz Bay, Antarctica during the austral summer of 2003   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The antarctic sea ice was investigated upon five occasions between January 4 and February 15, 2003. The investigations included: (1) estimation of sea ice distribution by ship-based observations between the middle Weddell Sea and the Prydz Bay; (2) estimation of sea ice distribution by aerial photography in the Prydz Bay; (3) direct measurements of fast ice thickness and snow cover, as well as ice core sampling in Nella Fjord; (4) estimation of melting sea ice distribution near the Zhongshan Station; and (5) observation of sea ice early freeze near the Zhongshan Station. On average, sea ice covered 14.4% of the study area. The highest sea ice concentration (80%) was observed in the Weddell Sea. First-year ice was dominant (99.7%-99.8%). Sea ice distributions in the Prydz Bay were more variable due to complex inshore topography, proximity of the Larsemann Hills, and/or grounded icebergs. The average thickness of landfast ice in NeUa Fjord was 169.5 cm. Wind-blown snow redistribution plays an important role in affecting the ice thickness in Nella Fjord. Preliminary freezing of sea ice near the Zhongshan Station follows the first two phases of the pancake cycle.  相似文献   

海洋环流模式中不同近似假设下的海表高度   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1

Boussinesq近似是现代海洋环流模式中经常采用的假设，但随着海洋模式的不断发展完善以及气候研究应用的需要，有必要估算Boussinesq近似造成的模式误差。分别利用一个非Boussinesq近似的海洋模式与另一个结构相同且采用Boussinesq近似的模式计算海表高度，并同时利用模式预报的温度、盐度资料计算了比容异常高度。分析结果显示，这3种不同定义的海表高度无论空间结构，还是时间演变，都基本类似，尤其在热带海区最接近，差值≤1cm。Boussinesq近似意味着在模式中以体积守恒代替质量守恒，通常的做法是对其进行简单的质量补偿来保持质量守恒。比较说明，以质量补偿方法进行的高度订正对减小Boussinesq近似带来的误差没有本质的意义。  相似文献

研究区位于1964～1976年黄河由刁口流路入海时形成的三角洲潮坪.为进行石油开采在潮坪上构筑的交通设施对波浪形成了良好的屏障,水动力条件具有显著差异的屏障两侧潮坪是研究潮坪特征对水动力条件响应的天然实验场所.在屏障两侧各选择一典型区,实测地貌形态,取样品进行粒度成分分析,根据实测资料分析确定潮坪分形特征.发现水动力环境的强弱决定着潮坪的形貌、沉积物粒度分维值的变化规律.水动力环境强的一侧潮坪滩面分维值高,且随着初始计算网格宽度增大迅速降维;表层沉积物粒度分维值小,且离散性大.相反,在另一侧潮坪滩面分维值低,且随着初始计算网格宽度增大分维值无显著变化;表层沉积物粒度分维值高,且具有较好的一致性.当初始计算网格宽度增大到某个值时,两侧潮坪形貌分维值渐趋一致.在屏障两侧各沿一条与屏障大角度相交的测线取样,并各选择一点采取不同深度的样品做分析计算,发现在水动力条件弱的一侧,样品的粒度分维值表现为远离屏障逐步降维、随深度增加分维值增大的规律;相反一侧粒度分维值变化的规律性很不明显.讨论了水动力环境对潮坪分形特征影响机理.  相似文献   

Current status of bacteriological parameters and DOC/POC in Xiamen coastal waters   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Khalid Maskaoui  Tianling Zheng  Huasheng Hong  Zhiming Yu  Zhong Hu  Yun Tian  Lizhe Cai 《海洋学报(英文版)》2003,22(3):443-451

The surface and bottom waters samples were collected from six locations in Xiamen western sea. The quantified estimation of bacterial production (3H-thymidine method) and observation of bacterial heterotrophic activity (14C-glucose method) have been made in order to have a better understanding of the role of marine bacteria and their activities. The results showed that the mean value of bacterial heterotrophic activity was 9×108 cells/(L.h) in the surface waters and 2.6×108 cells/(L.h) in the bottom waters. The mean value of bacterial production was 38×108 cells/(L.h) in the surface waters and 7.1×108 cells/(L.h) in the bottom waters. The relationship between bacterial production, heterotrophic activity, POC and DOC measured during this survey were discussed. The good understanding of the relationship between bacteria activity and total coliform was addressed.  相似文献   

Decadal Variability of Subsurface Temperature in the Central North Pacific     

Satoshi Sugimoto  Takashi Yoshida  Tadashi Ando 《Journal of Oceanography》2003,59(6):945-955

Decadal variability of subsurface temperature in the North Pacific has been investigated. Two dominant regions were found; the central subarctic region (CSa) and the north-eastern subtropical region (NESt). In CSa, cooling (warming) of wintertime subsurface temperature corresponds to the large (small) temperature gradient and southward (northward) shift of subsurface temperature front, associated with the increase (decrease) of positive wind stress curl and the southward (northward) shift of curl τ zero line with 2 years delay. It is suggested that the relocation of subtropical-subarctic boundary plays an important role. In NESt, importance of heat flux through the sea surface and heat divergence in the Ekman layer is also discussed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
