| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since microstructure measurements of velocity shear are very sensitive and fragile to noise from instruments,measurements have been performed with free-fall instruments whose vibrations to generate noise are minimized. Because of the difficulty in microstructure measurements, turbulence observations have been quite limited. In order to efficiently obtain much more turbulence data, we propose a new method in which a microstructure profiler is attached to a CTD-frame, which is a common device used in ocean observations. Comparing the turbulence intensity measured using this method with which from free-fall instruments, we evaluate the performance of microstructure measurements using instruments attached to a CTD-frame.
