University of Rhode Island proposes to support technical services on R/V Endeavor, a 184? general purpose research vessel operated as part of the Academic Research Fleet. The fleet is scheduled and supported by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). R/V Endeavor is a well-equipped, intermediate sized research vessel that is owned by NSF and operated under a Charter Party Agreement by the University of Rhode Island. The vessel was built in 1976 and refit in 1993. She can carry up to 17 scientists on cruises up to 30 days in duration. The vessel supports projects from all disciplines of oceanography.The proposal requests support for basic services and utilization of the Tech Pool. They will provide one shipboard technician on each cruise of R/V Endeavor to support seagoing research projects and to maintain, calibrate and provide for qualified users items from their pool of shared-use research instrumentation. 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.

罗德岛大学提议支持 R/V Endeavor（184？）的技术服务通用研究船作为学术研究舰队的一部分运行。该船队由大学国家海洋实验室系统（UNOLS）调度和支持。 R/V Endeavor 是一艘装备精良的中型研究船，由 NSF 所有，并由罗德岛大学根据租船协议运营。该船于 1976 年建造，于 1993 年进行改装。她最多可搭载 17 名科学家进行长达 30 天的巡航。该船支持海洋学所有学科的项目。该提案要求支持基本服务和技术库的利用。他们将在 R/V Endeavor 的每次航行中提供一名船上技术人员，以支持海上研究项目，并维护、校准并向合格用户提供共享研究仪器池中的物品。更广泛的影响 本提案的主要影响符合提案指南 (NSF 13-589) 的绩效审查标准 2。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。
