moonpool

ELAC multi-beam echosounder
Bathymetric information was generated by means of a mobile Seabeam 1000 system
(ELAC Nautic GmbH). The ELAC system is build up by two transmitter/receiver
units, motion sensor and CTD, which were installed in the moonpool
(Hydrographenschacht) of the vessel Poseidon. GPS data stems from the vessel’s
DataVis-system. A first calibration was carried out in shallow water and a flat sea
bottom to correct the bias between the ships vertical reference and the sonar.
Supplementary a CTD was performed to obtain a sound velocity profile, determined
by measuring the temperature, pressure and salinity.

or: moon pool/

A moon pool is a feature of marine drilling platforms, drillships and diving support vessels, some marine research and underwater exploration or research vessels, and underwater habitats, in which it is also known as a wet porch. It is an opening in the floor or base of the hull, platform, or chamber giving access to the water below, allowing technicians or researchers to lower tools and instruments into the sea. It provides shelter and protection so that even if the ship is in high seas or surrounded by ice, researchers can work in comfort rather than on a deck exposed to the elements. A moon pool also allows divers or small submersible craft to enter or leave the water easily and in a more protected environment.

Moon pools can be used in chambers below sea level, especially for the use of scuba divers, and their design requires more complex consideration of air and water pressure acting on the moon pool surface.

Für die kontinuierlichen Oberflächenwassermessungen wird eine Pumpe im Hydrographenschacht installiert, die die Messgeräte im Labor mit Wasser versorgt.

For the continuous surface water measurements a submersible pump will be installed in the ship s moonpool, which supplies water to the instruments. - 12 -
