In Situ Calibration of Moored CTDs Used for Monitoring Abyssal Water
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To monitor changes in heat content and geostrophic volume transport of abyssal water accurately, 50 moored conductivity?temperature?depth (CTD) recorders used for density measurements were calibrated in situ by simultaneous ...
In Situ Calibration of Optode-Based Oxygen Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Eleven optode-based oxygen sensors were used for shipboard hydrographic casts in the North Pacific. Oxygen data from the optode sensors were compared with high-quality oxygen data obtained with discrete water samples, and ...
In Situ Calibration of the SeaBird 9plus CTD Thermometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Sea-Bird Electronics (SBE 35) deep ocean reference thermometer is used with the SBE 9plus CTD system to calibrate the SBE 3 ocean thermometers of the CTD. The SBE 35 is standardized in water-triple-point and gallium-me ...
The Generation of Large-Amplitude Unsteady Lee Waves by Subinertial K1 Tidal Flow: A Possible Vertical Mixing Mechanism in the Kuril Straits
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical experiments with a two-dimensional nonhydrostatic model are performed to investigate tidally generated internal waves in the Kuril Straits and their effect on vertical mixing. The results show that sill-scale ...
