With funding through this Grant for Rapid Response Research (RAPID), a research team at the University of Miami, in collaboration with another team in Bermuda, will provide critical measurements of the carbonate parameters on the upcoming North Atlantic GEOTRACES cruises. These results will be vitally important in interpreting the trace metal studies. A secondary scientific objective is to provide additional measurements of salinity and density in the Atlantic Ocean. Similar measurements, made in the Pacific and Indian oceans, have been used in the 2010 International Thermodynamic Equation of Seawater (TEOS-10). This data will provide additional information on the study of the impact and influence of the carbon cycle on climate change and the workings of the ocean?s biogeochemical cycles. This research is part of a larger international effort to monitor the ocean's response to climate change. The originally proposed work was delayed because of the termination of the R/V Knorr cruise. RAPID funding is requested in order to complete the research and to prepare for a unique cruise that sails around the 5 November 2011 aboard the R/VKnorr. The broader impacts of these continuing measurements provide dissemination of data to enhance scientific and technological understanding to assess climate change. This work will be part of the dissertation research of a Ph.D. students. It will promote training and learning of graduate students as well as undergraduate students. Outreach activities will continue as opportunities arise. The results will be disseminated throughout the scientific community through resulting publications and the presentation of results at national and international meetings

借助这笔赠款进行快速响应研究（Rapid），迈阿密大学的研究团队与百慕大的另一个团队合作，将在即将到来的北大西洋地理领域巡游中对碳酸盐参数进行关键测量。这些结果对于解释痕量金属研究至关重要。次要科学目标是提供大西洋盐度和密度的额外测量。在2010年海水国际热力学方程（TEOS-10）中，在太平洋和印度洋进行了类似的测量。该数据将提供有关研究碳循环对气候变化和海洋生物地球化学周期工作的影响和影响的其他信息。这项研究是监测海洋对气候变化的反应的更大国际努力的一部分。最初提议的工作被推迟了，因为R/V Knorr巡游的终止。要求快速资金来完成研究并为2011年11月5日在R/VKNORR上航行的独特巡游做准备。这些持续测量的更广泛的影响提供了数据传播，以增强科学和技术理解以评估气候变化。这项工作将成为博士学位论文研究的一部分。学生。它将促进研究生以及本科生的培训和学习。随着机会的出现，外展活动将继续。结果将通过产生的出版物以及在国家和国际会议上的结果呈现在整个科学界传播
