0421510RaveloThis Major Research Instrumentation award to University of California Santa Cruz provides funds to establish a cutting-edge stable isotope analytical facility for environmental research. It includes support for the acquisition of three new mass spectrometers plus new front-end systems for sample preparation and separation, and adds capabilities for undertaking natural abundance, isotopically-enriched and compound specific analyses of organic material to the existing two systems that will continue to serve requirements for mineral-phase analyses. The broader impacts of the acquisition include a strong commitment to involve students, researchers and visitors at many levels in research undertaken at the facility. In addition, the instrumentation will be managed as a regional shared-use facility, open to researchers from throughout UCSC and outside, and it will be used to study a wide array of projects with compelling societal relevance (e.g. climate change, pollution). UCSC is providing 30% of the project cost from non-federal funds. This proposal is supported by the Division of Ocean Sciences at NSF. ***

0421510Ravelothis授予加利福尼亚大学圣克鲁斯分校的主要研究仪器奖提供资金，以建立尖端稳定的同位素分析设施，以供环境研究。 它包括支持三个新的质谱仪以及用于样品制备和分离的新的前端系统，并增加了进行自然丰度，同位素增强的和复合有机材料的特定特定分析的能力，这些分析将继续为矿物层分析提供需求。 收购的更广泛的影响包括致力于让学生，研究人员和访客在该设施进行的许多研究中参与其中。 此外，该仪器将作为区域共享使用设施进行管理，向整个UCSC和外部的研究人员开放，并将用于研究具有引人注目的社会相关性的各种项目（例如气候变化，污染）。 UCSC从非联邦基金提供了30％的项目成本。 该提案得到了NSF海洋科学司的支持。 ***
