…A type of current meter for measuring ocean currents. It was invented in 1950 by the American W. von Arx. Surface ocean currents move in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the vertical component of the geomagnetic field, so an induced electromotive force proportional to the vertical component of the geomagnetic field and the flow speed is generated, and an electric current flows in a closed circuit through the seawater below and the seafloor. … *Some of the terminology that mentions "Arcus, W. von" is listed below.

…海流の流れを測定するための流速計の一種。1950年にアメリカのアークスW.von Arxによって考案された。表層の海流は地磁気の鉛直成分に対して直角の水平方向に運動するので,地磁気の鉛直成分と流速に比例した誘導起電力が生じ,下層の海水や海底を通した閉回路に電流が流れている。… ※「アークス,W.von」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
