Abstract: A gas delivery apparatus configured for use with a mechanical ventilator having an atmospheric inlet for drawing in atmospheric gas includes a connecting device configured to connect to an oxygen supply and an air supply and to deliver mixed air and oxygen gas to the atmospheric inlet of the mechanical ventilator. The connecting device further includes a user control for adjusting a fraction of oxygen in the mixed air and oxygen gas. The connecting device comprises a reservoir configured to hold a volume of the mixed air and oxygen gas.

Abstract: A system for characterizing ocean bottom properties in real-time by explong the multipath structure of reverberation to extract values for the bottom loss and the bottom scattering coefficient. The system obtains environmental and navigational data and synchronizes the data with sonar state data and acoustic beam data to produce an input data stream to an extraction processor. The extraction processor utilizes a digital signal processing means to produce a reverberation energy envelope from the acoustic beam data and time correlate the reverberation energy envelope with the environmental, navigational, and sonar state data.
