A request is made to fund new instrumentation for the R/V Walton Smith, a 96,’ general purpose regional vessel operated and owned by the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (RSMAS) as part of the US Academic Fleet. These vessels are scheduled by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). R/V Walton Smith conducts a substantial portion of her operations in the near shore waters of South Florida and the Gulf of Mexico, providing scientific information relevant to major environmental initiatives. R/V Walton Smith completed 35 days in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. In 2021, the vessel is scheduled to sail 105 days with 33% (35 days) of the schedule for NSF. With this proposal, Miami provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation: Applanix POS MV OceanMasterBroader ImpactsThe principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the Proposal Guidelines (NSF 19-602). 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 R/V Walton Smith 号的新仪器提供资金，这是一艘 96' 通用区域船舶，由迈阿密大学罗森斯蒂尔海洋与大气科学学院 (RSMAS) 运营和拥有，属于美国学术舰队的一部分。这些船只由大学国家海洋学实验室系统 (UNOLS) 安排，其大部分作业在南佛罗里达州和墨西哥湾的近岸水域进行，提供与主要环境相关的科学信息。 R/V Walton Smith 在因疫情而缩短的 2021 年航季中完成了 35 天的航行，占 NSF 计划的 33%（35 天），迈阿密提供了技术说明。以及收购以下海洋仪器的理由： Applanix POS MV OceanMaster 更广泛的影响 本提案的主要影响符合《海洋法》的优点审查标准 2提案指南（NSF 19-602）为科学家使用该船及其共享仪器支持其 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）提供基础设施支持。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。
