Report of GLOMAR PhD student Achim Rößler about his research stay at the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), Florida, USA, from 13 January - 1 April 2010
The research stay at the AOML took place between the 13th January and the 1st April 2010 including the Ocean Science Meeting 2010 in Portland from the 22nd to the 26th February.
The Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) is one of the Oceanic and Atmospheric Research Facilities of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The AOML is located in Miami, Florida on Virginia Key. My main reasons for visiting the AOML were to work together and get the expertise of Chris Meinen and Silvia Garzoli. Chris Meinen is one of the main inventers of the so called Gravest Empirical Mode method (GEM), which is used as a basic part of the calculations in my PhD thesis, to get from raw data to transport time series. Silvia Garzoli is working for over 25 years with inverted echo sounders and the corresponding analyses of the time series.
The main focus during my time in Miami was to work together with Chris and Silvia on my time series from the four Inverted Echo Sounders equipped with Pressure sensor (PIES) from the Mid-Atlantic-Ridge. During this time we could solve couple of problems which aroused during the calculations of the GEM, especially due to the combination of two different data sets (CTD and Argo data) and discuss my preliminary times series. After the first 6 weeks I went to the Ocean Science Meeting in Portland, which is the largest international meeting for physical oceanographers. It only takes place every two years and this years meeting was titled: “From Observation to Prediction in the 21st Century”. Thanks to the support from GLOMAR, I was able to attend the meeting and presented my work by giving a talk, titled: “Transport variability and spreading paths of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre” in the session PO5 “Arctic and Subarctic Ocean Variability: Observations, Models, Perspectives”. The meeting had a lot of interesting sessions and it was a great combination of my stay abroad and the conference, which lead to more contacts and fruitful discussions.
After my time in Portland and back in Miami, I worked further on my own data in cooperation with Chris and Silvia and used the possibilities to get to know couple of other people working at AOML which helped me already or are willing to help on future aspects of my thesis (Gustavo Goni, Shenfu Dong, Rigoberto Garcia and Claudia Schmid).
Thanks to GLOMAR I was able to meet two experts for inverted echo sounders, from whom I could learn a lot and who already granted me further advise by upcoming questions. I could establish a good connection to the AOML and we already discussed the possibilities of a joint publication.
