A request is made to fund new and replacement instrumentation on the R/V Oceanus, a 177? research vessel operated by Oregon State University as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet.The R/V Oceanus is a general-purpose research vessel owned by the National Science Foundation and operated by Oregon State University. Until 2012, the vessel had been operated by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution but was then retired. OSU determined that the vessel was in better material condition than their ship R/V Wecoma so they took Oceanus and retired Wecoma. The mission of the ship is to support funded science research in the Pacific Northwest. R/V Oceanus completed 189 days in 2014, 161 (85%) of which were for NSF. In 2015, the vessel is scheduled to sail 223 days with 47% (105 days) of the schedule for NSF. With this proposal, OSU provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:Minus 80 Freezer $6,062 24 Bottle CTD Frame Upgrade $87,043 Spare Fluorometer $5,370 CTD Spares Refresh $11,792 Spare Oxygen Sensor $5,238 Broader ImpactsThe principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the Proposal Guidelines (NSF 13-589). It provides infrastructure support for scientists to use the vessel and its shared-use instrumentation in support of their NSF-funded oceanographic research projects (which individually undergo separate review by the relevant research program of NSF). The acquisition, maintenance and operation of shared-use instrumentation allows NSF-funded researchers from any US university or lab access to working, calibrated instruments for their research, reducing the cost of that research, and expanding the base of potential researchers.

提出要求在R/V Oceanus上资助新的和更换工具的要求，A 177？由俄勒冈州立大学运营的研究船是大学国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）研究机队的一部分。R/V Oceanus是由国家科学基金会拥有并由俄勒冈州立大学运营的通用研究船。直到2012年，该船一直由伍兹霍尔海洋学机构运营，但随后退休。 OSU确定该船只的物质状况比其船R/V Wecoma更好，因此他们乘坐了Oceanus并退休了Wecoma。该船的任务是支持西北太平洋的资助科学研究。 R/V Oceanus在2014年完成了189天，其中161天（85％）用于NSF。 2015年，该船计划以NSF的时间表的47％（105天）航行223天。 With this proposal, OSU provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:Minus 80 Freezer $6,062 24 Bottle CTD Frame Upgrade $87,043 Spare Fluorometer $5,370 CTD Spares Refresh $11,792 Spare Oxygen Sensor $5,238 Broader ImpactsThe principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the提案指南（NSF 13-589）。它为科学家提供了基础设施支持，以使用该船及其共享用途的仪器来支持其NSF资助的海洋学研究项目（NSF相关研究计划单独进行了审查）。 共享使用仪器的采集，维护和运行允许NSF资助的任何美国大学或实验室访问工作，校准研究的仪器，降低该研究成本并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。
