A Deep-Sea Differential Pressure Gauge
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A pressure gauge configured to respond to the difference between the ocean pressure and the pressure within a confined volume of compressible oil is found to be especially useful for detecting pressure fluctuations in the ...
Estimating the Vertical Component of Water Velocity from Measurements Collected with a Free-fall Vehicle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Estimated of the vertical component of water velocity are made with measurements of the pressure-change rate and rotation rate recorded by the free-fall vehicle ?Cartesian diver? (CD). Using buoyancy control, this device ...
The Separation of Wave-Induced and Intrusive Oceanic Finestructure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two hundred miles southwest of San Diego a conductivity/temperature/pressure instrument (CTD) was repeatedly raised and lowered to varying depths above 1000 m while under ship tow. Finestructure measurements made on two ...
