This project will supply shipboard scientific equipment for the research vessels T. WASHINGTON, MELVILLE, NEW HORIZON, and R. G. SPROUL, operated by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and dedicated to use in support of ocean science research. The Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment Program provides funds for ship equipment deemed essential to the proper and safe conduct of ocean science research. This Program provides support for such items as deck equipment including winch systems for the deployment and retrieval of scientific instruments, navigational equipment such as radars, gyroscopes and earth satellite receivers to pin point the location of research sites, communication equipment including radio transceivers and satellite transceivers for voice and scientific data communications and other equipment such as motorized workboats for transporting scientists to and from data retrieval sites. The Project Director, George G. Shor is fully qualified to direct this project having had considerable experience in overseeing the acquisition and installation of shipboard equipment. This project will supply special blocks for improved wire handling, two small computers for data analyses; a vertical reference system for the T. WASHINGTON; a LORAN navigator, an INMARSAT communication system, and a laboratory refrigerator for the NEW HORIZON; a refurbished hydrographic winch for the R.G. SPROUL; and devices to improve satellite navigation on the T. WASHINGTON, MELVILLE, and NEW HORIZON.

该项目将为斯克里普斯海洋学研究所运营的“T. WASHINGTON”号、“MELVILLE”号、“NEW HORIZON”号和“R. G. SPROUL”号科考船提供船上科学设备，专门用于支持海洋科学研究。船上科学支持设备计划为船舶设备提供资金，这些设备被认为是正确和安全进行海洋科学研究所必需的。该计划为甲板设备（包括用于部署和检索科学仪器的绞车系统）、导航设备（如雷达、陀螺仪和地球卫星接收器）提供支持，以确定研究地点的位置。通信设备，包括话音和科学数据通信用无线电收发机和卫星收发机，以及其他设备，如运送科学家往返数据检索地点的机动工作船。项目总监George G. Shor在监督船上设备的采购和安装方面拥有丰富的经验，完全有资格指导该项目。该项目将提供用于改进电线处理的专用块、两台用于数据分析的小型计算机；T. WASHINGTON的垂直参考系统；LORAN导航仪、国际海事卫星组织（INMARSAT）通信系统和用于“新地平线”（NEW HORIZON）的实验室冰箱；R.G. SPROUL的翻新水文绞车；以及改善华盛顿号、梅尔维尔号和新地平线号卫星导航的设备。
