CSBR: Natural History: Installation of an Archival Storage System to Ensure Specimen Security at the Museum of Southwestern Biology.An award is made to New Mexico State University's Museum of Southwestern Biology to ensure the long-term preservation, quality and security of the Division of Genomic Resources (DGR). DGR is a world-class repository for frozen biological materials representing 200,000 organisms that are digitized and fully searchable on-line. Over 84% are associated with traditional voucher specimens. Dating back to 1979, DGR is the largest wild mammal collection worldwide, and among the top 10 largest bird tissue collections. The facility also houses substantial fish, amphibian and reptile tissues including critical samples from endangered species and threatened ecosystems. DGR is worldwide in scope with excellent representation from North America, Asia, Africa, and throughout Latin America. These specimens provide critical resources for studies of specialized and interdisciplinary studies. Annually 50 loans of approximately 2000 specimens generate 80 peer-reviewed publications. DGR has held a leadership role in developing connections between the museum community and the molecular genomic efforts. This upgrade to DGR provides a platform to further those efforts, and also leverages the heavy involvement of DGR with municipal, state, and federal agencies, especially in the fields of natural resource management and public and wildlife health. Planned outreach utilizes existing programs at the museum to educate the public, including young students, on the role of collections in the practice of science that benefits society.This project will create a state-of-the-art facility by replacing the existing electrical (-80C) freezer system with 3 large liquid nitrogen freezers and a nitrogen generator that will significantly increase sample quality by providing much lower archival temperatures (-190C) and much longer protection should there be a catastrophic interruption of power or other emergency. In addition this upgrade will reduce electrical consumption substantially (60% reduction). All samples to be moved will receive unique barcodes to enable the transfer of associated specimen data into a digital object tracking system and to informatics applications. The associated database, Arctos, has direct links to GenBank (and soon IsoBank) that immediately tie the specimen and associated museum data (spatial, temporal, morphological) to other Big Data on the web. This connection places the museum specimen as the primary nexus that connects not only the publications derived from specimen-based research, but also the increasingly vast amounts of new molecular data derived from each specimen.

CSBR：自然历史：安装档案存储系统，以确保西南生物学博物馆的标本安全性。向新墨西哥州立大学西南生物学博物馆颁发了奖项，以确保确保长期保存，质量和安全部门基因组资源（DGR）。 DGR是一个世界一流的存储库，用于冷冻生物材料，代表200,000种经过数字化且可以在线搜索的生物体。超过84％与传统凭证标本有关。 DGR可以追溯到1979年，是全球最大的野生哺乳动物收集，也是十大最大的鸟类组织收集之一。该设施还设有大量的鱼类，两栖动物和爬行动物组织，包括来自濒危物种的关键样品和威胁生态系统。 DGR在全球范围内拥有来自北美，亚洲，非洲和整个拉丁美洲的出色代表。这些标本为专业和跨学科研究的研究提供了关键的资源。每年50个大约2000个标本的贷款生成80个同行评审的出版物。 DGR在建立博物馆社区与分子基因组努力之间建立联系方面发挥了领导作用。对DGR的升级为进一步的努力提供了一个平台，还利用了DGR与市政，州和联邦机构的大量参与，尤其是在自然资源管理以及公共和野生动植物健康领域。计划的外展利用博物馆的现有计划来教育包括年轻学生在内的公众，包括收藏在科学实践中的作用，使社会受益。该项目将通过取代现有的电气来创建最先进的设施（ -80C）冰柜系统，具有3个大型液氮冷冻剂和一个氮发生器，该系统将通过提供较低的档案温度（-190C）来显着提高样品质量，并且如果有灾难性的动力中断或其他紧急情况，则更长的保护。此外，此升级将大大减少电消耗量（减少60％）。所有要移动的样本都将收到独特的条形码，以使关联的样品数据转移到数字对象跟踪系统和信息学应用程序中。相关的数据库Arctos与GenBank（和Suon Isobank）有直接的链接，该链接立即将标本和相关的博物馆数据（空间，时间，形态学）与网络上的其他大数据联系起来。该连接使博物馆标本成为主要联系，不仅连接了从基于标本的研究中得出的出版物，而且还连接了越来越多的来自每个标本的新分子数据。
