Bermuda Institute of Ocean Science (BIOS) proposes to support technical services on R/V Atlantic Explorer, a general purpose, intermediate class research vessel operated by BIOS as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. The proposal requests support for basic services. They will provide at least two shipboard technicians on most cruises of R/V Atlantic Explorer to support seagoing research projects and to maintain calibrate and provide for qualified users items from their pool of shared-use research instrumentation. In addition, they will utilize technicians via the technician exchange program and the UNOLS Tech Pool. The costs for the techs will be deducted from the award. The budget included with this proposal is for the first year of a 5-year continuing award. The out-years will be negotiated with the Program with the receipt of the annual report.Broader Impacts The 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.

百慕大海洋科学研究所（BIOS）建议支持R/V大西洋探险家的技术服务，这是BIOS作为大学国家海洋学实验室系统研究机队的一部分，由BIOS运营的中级课程研究船。 该提案要求支持基本服务。 他们将在大多数R/V大西洋探险家巡游中至少提供两名船上技术人员，以支持海上研究项目，并维护校准并从其共享使用研究仪器中提供合格的用户物品。 此外，他们将通过技术人员交流计划和UNOLS Tech池利用技术人员。技术人员的成本将从奖项中扣除。该提案的预算是5年持续奖励的第一年。在收到年度报告的情况下，将与该计划进行谈判。BRODER会影响本提案的主要影响，这是根据提案指南的优点审查标准2（NSF 13-589）的成绩审查标准。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，维护和运营允许NSF资助的任何美国大学或实验室访问工作，校准研究的工具，降低该研究的成本并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。本奖奖的奖项反映了这一奖项。 NSF的法定使命，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准来评估值得支持。
