The Multidisciplinary Instrumentation in Support of Oceanography (MISO) Facility at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) has provided routine access to deep-sea imaging, lighting, power and sensor instrumentation for over two decades. This capability to support US and international academic oceanography across many disciplines has included equipment used successfully on over 75 research cruises since 2002. A key component of MISO Facility support has been the design, development and implementation of robust deep-sea imaging capabilities that have been used on a wide array of deep-submergence vehicles (Alvin, PISCES, ROV Jason, AUV Sentry, ROV Hercules, ROV DR-2, ROV Sebastian, ROV Aegir6000), towed deep-sea imaging systems (i.e., the MISO TowCam system, seafloor time lapse systems developed by the MISO Facility, and seafloor sampling systems such as box corers and multicorers. The OI Program recommends funding to purchase the following components required to assemble autonomous, self-recording, high-resolution deep-sea camera systems:1) Six (6) Deep-Sea Power & Light DigiSeacam housings $73,8002) Two (2) Hero11 multi-camera module systems $11,0283) DSPL LED SeaLite 2050 deep-sea lights $11,6454) Subsea Cabling $7,000 Materials and Supplies $9,070 IDC $5,931 $118,474 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.

伍兹霍尔海洋研究所 (WHOI) 的多学科海洋学支持仪器 (MISO) 设施二十多年来一直提供深海成像、照明、电源和传感器仪器的常规使用。这种支持美国和国际多学科学术海洋学的能力包括自 2002 年以来在超过 75 次研究巡航中成功使用的设备。MISO 设施支持的一个关键组成部分是设计、开发和实施强大的深海成像能力，这些能力已用于各种深水潜水器（Alvin、PISCES、ROV Jason、AUV Sentry、ROV Hercules、ROV DR-2、ROV Sebastian、ROV Aegir6000）、拖曳式深海成像系统（即 MISO TowCam 系统、MISO 设施开发的海底延时系统以及海底取样系统，例如箱式取样器和多取样器。OI 计划建议提供资金来购买以下所需组件组装自主、自记录、高分辨率深海相机系统：1) 六 (6) 个 Deep-Sea Power & Light DigiSeacam 外壳$73,8002) 两 (2) 个 Hero11 多摄像头模块系统 $11,0283) DSPL LED SeaLite 2050 深海灯 $11,6454) 海底布线 $7,000 材料和用品 $9,070 IDC $5,931 $118,474 更广泛的影响 本提案的主要影响是根据提案的绩效审查标准 2指南（NSF 19-602）。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。
