Kilo Moana is a 186-foot, general-purpose research vessel built in 2002 and operated by the University of Hawaii under a charter party agreement with the Office of Naval Research (ONR). The vessel is part of the US Academic Research Fleet (ARF) and is supported by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). Ship time is made available to academic researchers funded by the NSF, ONR, NOAA, NASA, and other federal and state agencies. The University of Hawaii requests funds for purchase of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:Reverse Osmosis/ Ultrapure Scientific Water System $23,576 OTDR/Copper Network Tester $19,746 Overboard Handling System (OHS) Proof Load Test Kit $18,557 Hydrostatic Wire Cutter (2) $6,000 (not funded)Funded total $61,879 Broader 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.

Kilo Moana是一款186英尺的通用研究船，于2002年建造，并由夏威夷大学与海军研究办公室（ONR）达成一项宪章协议。该船是美国学术研究机队（ARF）的一部分，并得到了大学国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）的支持。 NSF，ONR，NOAA，NASA以及其他联邦和州机构资助的学术研究人员可以提供船舶时间。夏威夷大学要求购买以下海洋学仪器的资金：反渗透/超渗透科学水系统$ 23,576 OTDR/铜网络测试仪$ 19,746过板处理系统（OHS）证明负载测试套件$ 18,5557根据提案指南（NSF 19-602）的优异审查标准2，资助总计61,879美元更广泛的影响本提案的主要影响。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。
