An electromagnetic method for measuring the velocities of ocean currents from a ship under way

摘要: During the past four years a deliberate effort has been made at the Woods HoleOceanographic Institution to devise methods of kinematic observation generally suitedto the needs of oceanographers. One result of this work, the electromagnetic method, has been brought from the experimental stage to one of useful maturity. Many of thetheoretical potentialities of the method are still to be explored and developed. Neverthelessit seems likely that this remaining work may be done more soundly if present …
