Bellingham)，麻省理工学院物理学博士，现任美国加利福尼亚州蒙特利湾海洋研究所首席技术专家。贝林罕博士是海洋水下自主型机器人研究领域的领导者，于1988年启动了麻省理工学院自主水下航行器实验室。贝林罕博士获得过多项荣誉奖项，the Lockheed Martin Aware for Ocean Science and Engineering, the 14th Robert Bruce Wallace Lecture at MIT, and the Antarctica Service Medal等。现今科研方向为应用自主水下航行器等设备研究海洋生态系统的微生物。
About the Speaker:
Dr. Chris Scholin earned his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in 1992 and served as Chair of Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI)’s Research Division from mid-2005 to early 2009 before appointment as President and CEO in late 2009. He maintains an active research program that focuses on development and application of instruments for collecting and analyzing microorganisms remotely in coastal, open ocean, and deep-sea environments.
Dr. James G. Bellingham got his Ph.D. in Physics in 1988 from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and serves as Chief Technologist of MBARI. Dr. Bellingham is a leader in the field of marine autonomous robotics. He started the MIT Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Laboratory at Sea Grant in 1988. Dr. Bellingham is a recipient of many awards, including the Lockheed Martin Aware for Ocean Science and Engineering, the 14th Robert Bruce Wallace Lecture at MIT, and the Antarctica Service Medal. Today his research activity focuses on extending these techniques to the study of microbial marine ecosystems.
讲座内容介绍：
人类赖以生存的地球上，海洋以其巨大的分布面积，对人类的生活造成深远的影响。海洋与国家安全和权益维护与保障、人类生存与可持续发展、全球气候变化、海洋油气及矿产等战略性资源开发等方面休戚相关。如何观测监控探索这个巨大的资源库一直以来是人类探索实践的前沿课题。人类对海洋的认识和利用离不开现代海洋科学技术的强大支撑。长久以来，海洋观测系统不断被开发应用于对气候变化、生物地球化学循环、生态系统评估和环境危害的研究，但是随着观测技术的复杂性的增加，出现的问题的难度也随之提高。自主水下航行器最早应用于军事用途，之后被广泛应用于海洋调查，并迅速在传统海洋勘察中占了一席之地，并表现出愈来愈重要的地位。如何发展提高现有的水下运载器对于未来的海洋勘察与开发具有重要的意义。主讲人将向我们展示海洋自主观测系统与水下自主运载器的发展，并向我们介绍新一代的观测系统，预测展望未来运载器的设计与应用，带大家进入海洋观测的最前沿。
Lecture Introduction:
With large distribution area, ocean has a profound impact on human life. Ocean has a close connection with national security and safeguard, human survival and sustainable development, global climate change and the exploitation of marine strategic resources such as oil gas and mineral. How to observe, monitor and explore this vast resources pool has become an advanced research topic. Human beings cannot understand and utilize oceans without the strong support from the modern marine science and technology. For a long time, ocean observation system has been developed and applied to the research of climate change, biogeochemical cycles, ecosystem assessment and environmental hazards. However, with the increasing complexity of observation technology, the difficulty of problems is rising as well. Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) was first used for military and then was applied widely to oceanographic research, playing an increasingly important role in traditional marine survey. To develop and improve the existing underwater vehicle is significant to the future marine survey and development. The keynote speakers will share the development of marine autonomous observation system and SUV. They will also introduce the newest observation system and forecast the design and application of future underwater vehicle, leading audiences to the forefront of marine observation.
