A Survey and Assessment of the Navy's Oceanographic Instrumentation Needs.
Abstract
A survey program was conducted to identify the Navy's oceanographic measurement needs which are not being met by currently available instrumentation. The scope of the survey, as dictated by funding limitations and a quick response requirement, was limited to measurements needed to support ongoing Navy programs related to sensor and weapon systems as opposed to measurements needed for general oceanographic research. The survey also included a summary of the state-of-the-art capabilities of current oceanographic instrumentation. A number of instrumentation needs have been identified which are receiving inadequate attention and/or support. (Author)
