This proposal seeks support for a shared High Resolution Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry facility for Tasmanian researchers. The existing UTAS instrument is approaching end-of-life and is becoming increasingly unreliable. Access to enhanced capabilities embodied in a rejuvenated facility, along with a renewed lifespan, is essential for continued analysis of ultra-trace elements and isotopes in challenging samples from southern environments. The new instrument will allow TAS researchers and their (inter)national collaborators to undertake world-leading research, enhancing competitive profiles in a diverse range of research areas (oceanography, analytical chemistry, Antarctic studies, environmental assessment, geochemistry).

该提案寻求支持塔斯马尼亚研究人员共享的高分辨率等离子质谱设施。现有的UTA工具正在接近寿命，并且变得越来越不可靠。获得重新青春的设施中体现的增强功能以​​及更新的寿命对于继续分析来自南部环境的挑战性样本中的超痕迹元素和同位素至关重要。该新工具将允许TAS研究人员及其国家合作者进行世界领先的研究，从而在各种研究领域（海洋学，分析化学，南极研究，环境评估，地球化学）中增强竞争性概况。
