Oceanographic Instrumentation

华盛顿大学海洋学院将购买现代六通道自动分析仪的部件，这些部件将被放置在共享设备池中。该设备的维护是为了在由大学运营的研究船上使用或与其关联使用。该仪器还将提高该船和该机构支持研究和工程活动的能力。这一新设备将取代现有的和过时的设备，这些设备不再适用，将作为共享设施运行。该仪器可以快速、准确地测量海水样品中的几种营养物质和化学成分。这种测量在现代海洋学和海洋生物调查中很重要。上述仪器将提高大学支持NSF赞助的研究、工程和教育项目的能力。

The School of Oceanography at University of Washington will acquire components for a modern six-channel autoanalyzer that will be placed in a pool of shared use equipment. This equipment is maintained for use on or in association with research vessels operated by the University. The instrument- ation will also increase the capabilities of the ship and of the institution to support research and engineering activities. This new device will replace existing and outmoded equipment that is no longer serviceable and will be operated as a shared use facility. The instrument provides rapid and accurate measurements of several nutrients and chemical constituents in seawater samples. Such measurements are important in modern oceanographic and marine biological investigations. The instrumentation described above will increase the capability of the University to support NSF-sponsored research, engineering, and education projects.
