Summary
| Description |
English: The western North Atlantic showing the locations of two experiments employing ocean acoustic tomography. AMODE, the "Acoustic Mid-Ocean Dynamics Experiment" (1991-2), was designed to study ocean dynamics in an area away from the Gulf Stream, and SYNOP (1988-9) was designed to synoptically measure aspects of the Gulf Stream. The colors show a snapshot of sound speed at 300 m depth derived from a high-resolution numerical ocean model. One of the key motivations for employing tomography is that the measurements give averages over the turbulent ocean.
Español: El oeste del Atlántico Norte muestra las ubicaciones de dos experimentos que emplearon la tomografía acústica del océano. AMODE, el "Experimento de Dinámica Medioambiental Acústica" (1990-1), fue diseñado para estudiar la dinámica oceánica en un área alejada de la Corriente del Golfo, y SYNOP (1988-9) fue diseñado para medir sinópticamente aspectos de la Corriente del Golfo. Los colores muestran una instantánea de la velocidad del sonido a 300 m de profundidad derivada de un modelo de océano numérico de alta resolución. Una de las principales motivaciones para emplear la tomografía es que las mediciones dan promedios sobre el océano turbulento. |
