走航ADCP观测资料质量控制方法及应用

为完善目前走航ADCP观测资料质量控制尚未形成统一流程的问题,将走航ADCP观测资料质量控制归纳为船速获取、声速校正、偏角校正以及剖面数据处理四个主要步骤,并制定了一套较为系统的走航ADCP观测资料质量控制流程。以渤海辽东湾红沿河核电站周边海域船载走航ADCP观测为例,按照提出的流程进行走航ADCP观测资料的质量控制。通过对比原始观测数据,质量控制后的结果表明u分量流速剔除了23.56%的低可信度数据,而v分量流速剔除了25.96%的低可信度数据。10 m与15 m水深处的质量控制前后的流速-频数直方图表明,本文提出的流程能有效地降低观测随机性的影响。     

基于南极科考数据的ADCP深度订正实验

声学多普勒流速剖面仪由于其结构、原理及观测环境等因素,其流速观测结果与海水实际深度的匹配存在较大偏差。采用第31次南极科考实测ADCP及XCTD数据,通过计算实际声速,对ADCP层深计算公式进行了订正实验,使流速观测数据与其所对应的实际深度重新匹配。结果显示,深度订正值随深度的增加而增大,至700m处,最大订正值可达16m。相应的流速和流向也随深度的订正有大幅度的改变,而且,无论是深度还是流速和流向,其订正值均由低纬向高纬,逐渐增大。

水利系统首台进口ADCP在长江口成功开发应用对国产ADCP推广应用的启示

声学多普勒流速剖面仪(Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers,ADCP),是美国RD公司八十年代初研发生产,用于海洋海流调查的仪器,ADCP能同时采集流速、流向、水深、回波强度、航速等要素,在海洋调查中得到广泛应用。长江水利委员会水文局长江口水文实验站在1990年率先引进了美国RDI公司的窄带DR-600k ADCP,解决了长江口江面宽、风浪大、传统测验方式难以收集完整全潮潮流资料的难题。经过RD公司专家来现场安装、调试、培训等过程,历经两年在长江口徐六泾站及长江中游九江站、大通站进行专项比测试验,掌握了ADCP的操作方法,熟悉参数设置及优化,开发了ADCP数据处理软件,成功应用于长江口潮流测验。20纪90年代至今国产ADCP研制从诞生到产品不断出现,可以借鉴首台引进ADCP的成功经验。本文应与流速仪进行比测(比对),收集不同水文环境的资料样本进行分析研究,资料分析时宜与TRDI的WinRIver软件采集的船速、流速、水深等数据进行对比分析,优化国产ADCP软件的功能,提高国产ADCP软硬件的性能使用单位购买ADCP后应进行必要的外围设备配置如GNSS、外接罗经等,制定严格的操作规程、建立ADCP维护保养制度,以保证ADCP能正常收集资料。生产厂家要建立野外服务公告,对用户在使用过程中遇到的问题及处理方式方法进行公布,同时收集和分享用户的使用经验。     

浮标平台对ADCP测流精度的影响分析

海洋资料浮标会对周围流场产生影响,从而影响流速剖面数据的准确度。为了探究浮标平台对流场的扰动深度,借助计算流体力学方法,建立了数值水池,并对全尺度的浮标模型进行了不同流速下的仿真。仿真结果显示,浮标受到的流速阻力与模型试验结果相近。对浮标周围的速度场进行分析,发现浮标对流场的扰动是水平面圆柱绕流和竖直面梯形绕流的结合,会在浮标上游和下游形成流速减慢区,浮标中游两侧和下方形成流速加快区,流场呈现紊乱状态。浮标平台的扰动深度随着流速的增大而增大,根据两种误差标准(1 cm/s误差和5%误差),计算了不同流速下的影响深度。该研究为ADCP的安装提供了指导,也为数据处理提供了依据,有利于提高ADCP的测流精度。

Methodical aspects of the application of acoustic Doppler current profilers in the Black Sea

For the first time, an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) produced by the RDI is used in the water area of the Black Sea in the lowered mode. This direction in the application of acoustic Doppler current profilers is now in the stage of development and verification of various procedures of measurements with subsequent data processing and enables one to get the distributions of current velocities down to depths of 1000–6000 m depending on the modification of the instrument. We describe the procedures of measurements performed with the help of the ADCP in the lowered mode in the course of an expedition and the stages of processing of the primary data based on the experience of application of similar acoustic current profilers at the Marine Hydrophysical Institute of the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences accumulated in the 1980s. We generalize the experience of application of ADCP under the hydrological conditions of the Black Sea, propose the algorithms of data processing, present the profiles of absolute current velocity at several stations, compare these profiles with the geostrophic velocities, and determine the deep-water structure of the field of currents in a shelf-open-sea section made along 31.17°E. __________ Translated from Morskoi Gidrofizicheskii Zhurnal, No. 4, pp. 31–48, July–August, 2006.

Comparison of surface current variations observed by TOPEX altimeter with TOLEX-ADCP data

Variations of surface current velocity derived by the TOPEX altimeter are compared with data from Tokyo-Ogasawara Line Experiment (TOLEX)-Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) monitoring for a period from October 1992 to July 1993. Since the locations of ADCP ship track and TOPEX altimeter ground tracks do not coincide with each other, and the temporal and spatial sampling are also different between the ADCP and altimeter observations, re-sampling, interpolation and smoothing in time and space are needed to the ADCP and altimeter data. First, the interpolated TOPEX sea surface height is compared with sea level data at Chichijima in the Ogasawara Islands. It is found that aliasing caused by the tidal correction error for M2 constituent in the TOPEX data is significant. Therefore, comparison of the TOPEX data with the TOLEX-ADCP data is decided to be made by using cross-track velocity components of the surface current, which are considered to be relatively less affected by the errors in the tidal correction. The cross-track velocity variations derived from the TOPEX sea surface heights agree well with those of the ADCP observations. The altimeterderived velocity deviations associated with transition of the Kuroshio paths coincide with the ADCP data. It is quantitatively confirmed that the TOPEX altimeter is reliable to observe the synoptic variations of surface currents including fluctuations of the Kuroshio axis.     

Monitoring Surface Velocity from Repeated ADCP Observations and Satellite Altimetry

A method has been developed to monitor the surface velocity field by combining repeated acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) observations and satellite altimetry data. The geostrophic velocity anomaly is calculated from the sea surface height anomaly field estimated from the altimetry data by an optimal interpolation. It has been confirmed that this accurately observes the smoothed velocity anomaly field when the interpolation scales are set according to the spatio-temporal sampling pattern of the altimeter used. The velocity anomaly obtained from the altimetry data is subtracted from the repeated ADCP observations to estimate temporal mean velocity along the ship tracks. Regularly sampled, nine-year time series of surface velocity can then be obtained by adding the computed mean velocity and the altimetry anomaly components. This clearly illustrates surface velocity fluctuations such as the movement of the Kuroshio axis due to its meandering and an increase of the interannual variability of the Subtropical Countercurrent toward its downstream region. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Side-looking ADCP and Doppler radar measurements across a coastalfront

Measurements are reported from two side-looking Doppler systems, which were used to study the discharge front located off the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. One system was a commercial 300-kHz narrow-band acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP), which was mounted at a depth of 0.6 m on the port side of a research ship. The other was a prototype X-band, vertically polarized, Doppler radar mounted at a height of about 4 m on the starboard side. Both velocity and backscatter intensity were measured along two beams to ranges of 120 m (ADCP) and 200 m (radar), so that by sailing alternately on each side of the front it was possible to make nearly simultaneous across-front measurements with both systems. Despite the differences in acoustic and radar scattering mechanisms, a combined backscatter intensity surface map could be made showing a continuous frontal signature about 10-m wide and 20 dB above background levels. Each system was also able to measure the same large-scale velocity change across the front, which was dominated by the discharging buoyant bay water flowing at about 50 cm/s relative to the ambient continental shelf water. However, within a 60-m wide zone, the radar system measured velocities up to 75 cm/s larger than the ADCP. Such large velocity differences arose from the radar's sensitivity to motions associated with waves reflecting from the region of strongest across-front current convergence. This frontal convergence was resolved only by the ADCP, which showed a horizontal current change of about 25 cm/s over 10 m and appeared to extend over the upper 2 m or so of the water column. These results show that the combined information from the acoustic and radar systems provide a more complete picture of the frontal currents and wave-current interactions than either system could provide alone
