The University of Miami requests funding for additional and back-up instrumentation on the R/V Walton Smith, a 96,’ general purpose regional vessel operated by the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (RSMAS) as part of the US Academic Research Fleet (ARF).The vessel 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. The operations include oil spill monitoring, water management changes, municipal waste disposal, and storm water discharge among others which are deemed critical to the sustainable development of the South Florida and Gulf economy. Oceanographic Instrumentation requested in this proposal includes: 1) Turner Designs C3 Fluorometer (3 optic channels) $9,605 2) (2) WET Labs C-Star Transmissometer (CST-25-DR) $21,387 3) Sea-Bird 9+ underwater unit repair & 911+ Upgrade $27,993 4) 2) Sea-Bird ECO-FLNTU_RTD Fluorometer/Turbidity $17,485 $76,470  Broader Impacts The 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.

迈阿密大学要求资助R/V沃尔顿·史密斯（R/V沃尔顿·史密斯（R/V Walton Smith）（96），“通用区域船”由迈阿密大学罗森斯蒂尔海洋和大气科学学院（RSMA）（RSMAS）运营，作为美国学术研究机队（ARF）的一部分。与主要环境计划有关的科学信息。这些行动包括溢油监测，水管理变化，市政废物处理以及雨水排出，这些雨水被认为对南佛罗里达州和海湾经济的可持续发展至关重要。 Oceanographic Instrumentation requested in this proposal includes: 1) Turner Designs C3 Fluorometer (3 optic channels) $9,605 2) (2) WET Labs C-Star Transmissometer (CST-25-DR) $21,387 3) Sea-Bird 9+ underwater unit repair & 911+ Upgrade $27,993 4) 2) Sea-Bird ECO-FLNTU_RTD Fluorometer/Turbidity $ 17,485 $ 76,470更广泛的影响本提案的主要影响是根据提案指南的优点审查标准（NSF 19-602）。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）。共享使用工具的获取，维护和操作允许NSF资助的任何美国大学或实验室访问工作，校准其研究的仪器，降低该研究的成本，并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。本奖项奖反映了NSF的立法任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力评估和广泛的评估来评估的，并值得通过评估来进行评估。
