A request is made to fund Oceanographic Instrumentation for the Research Vessel Savannah, a 92-foot coastal research vessel, owned and operated by Skidaway Institute of Oceanography as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. With this proposal, Skidaway provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:Vertical Profiling CTD/Fluorometer Upgrades $24,347Network and DAS Upgrades $6,813TSG Upgrade $12,812Deck Incubators $5,513 $49,485Broader 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.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

请求为萨凡纳研究船的海洋学仪器提供资金，这是一艘 92 英尺长的沿海研究船，由斯基德威海洋学研究所拥有和运营，作为大学国家海洋学实验室系统 (UNOLS) 研究船队的一部分。通过此提案，Skidaway 提供了收购以下海洋仪器的技术说明和理由：垂直剖面 CTD/荧光计升级 $24,347 网络和 DAS 升级 $6,813 TSG 升级 $12,812 甲板孵化器 $5,513 $49,485 更广泛的影响当前提案的主要影响正在进行绩效审查提案指南的标准 2 (NSF 13-589）。它为科学家使用该船及其共享仪器提供基础设施支持，以支持其 NSF 资助的海洋学研究项目（这些项目单独接受 NSF 相关研究计划的单独审查）。 共享仪器的采购、维护和操作使美国任何大学或实验室的 NSF 资助的研究人员都可以使用经过校准的工作仪器进行研究，从而降低研究成本，并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。该奖项反映了通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，NSF 的法定使命被认为值得支持。
