The concept of a virtual instrument is explored. The problem of how to move data between a host computer and the specialized interface is discussed. If use with the greatest variety of host computers is a goal, then RS-232 appears to be the interconnection method of choice. These ideas are realized in an improved, flexible design for a digital interface to an expendable bathythermograph (XBT) is reported. It makes use of the simplified serial communications and hardware features of RS-232 parts on a variety of personal computers. This design philosophy is shown to be applicable to other marine instrumentation needs.<>

In 1973, the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management established the Environmental Studies Program (ESP) to conduct studies with the purpose of building a reliable database to help predict, assess, and manage potential impacts from oil and gas development. The ESP, now under the direction of the Minerals Management Service (MMS), includes a major oceanographic research effort that has resulted in an improvement in the understanding of ocean resources through the development of concurrent and parallel programs of scientific research. Between Fiscal Year (FY) 1973 and FY 1987, nearly $100 million were spent on studies of the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) environment through this program. Much of the research conducted under the auspices of the ESP has emphasized the collection of data on the environmental conditions of the Atlantic OCS. The ESP-funded research has also been an important source of information regarding sensitive OCS resources that could be affected by oil spills. These include archaeological resources, fish, benthic organisms, marine mammal and coastal birds and their habitats, the migration routes and calving areas for endangered or threatened species, and estuaries and wetlands. The benefits of this research on the oil spill risk analysis and impact assessment processes are examined in this paper.

During 1987-88, we adapted methods for automated analyses of nutrients by Technicon's newest generation industrial autoanalyzer so that the TrAAcs-800 could be used to analyze low levels of nutrients in open-ocean water. The TrAAcs-800 system runs three to five times more samples with longer steady states and better separation between peaks than can older generation autoanalyzer systems like our Technicon AA-I1 or our Alpkem IWA-6. On completion of a run the TrAAcs operating program automatically calculates sample concentrations from the linear regression slope obtained from the standards which are run and corrects for baseline drift, changes in absorbance, and carry-over.

The Coast Guard regulates maximum allowable horsepower on recreational outboard boats up to 20 feet in length. Improved methods of determining the proper amount of horsepower have been proposed, including a new "dry land" formula based on lateral acceleration. A test program was conducted which evaluated the power-related performance of 25 outboard boats of various designs. From this information it was determined that lateral acceleration was not sufficient to set horsepower levels and that a fairly complex formula would be needed to adequately assess the powering-related behavior of the wide variety of hull designs currently available to the consumer.

Electrode Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) is a new technology presently being investigated for its usefulness in measuring biofouling in seawater cooled power plants. EIS is based on the hypothesis that biofouling can be characterized by observing its steady state response to a small amplitude sinusoidal perturbing potential imposed on the biofilm material. From the change in phase and amplitude of the response signal a real-time characterization of the biofilm can be determined.

A mooring has been developed to collect and transmit oceanographic and meteorological data via satellite links. Data telemetered included currents (from 50 to 250 m), water and air temperature, wind, relative humidity, barometric pressure, and various engineering parameters. The unique aspect of the STEM design was the use of electromechanical cable for both the strength member of the mooring and the electrical connection between the subsurface instruments and the surface buoy. The surface mooring was deployed 150 m south of Cape Cod in 2700 m of water in November 1987 and retrieved in May 1988. It operated successfully through the harsh North Atlantic winter.<>
