Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment

该项目将为华盛顿大学海洋学院运营的T.Thompson号和C.A.Barnes号科考船提供船上科学设备，专门用于支持海洋科学研究。船上科学支持设备方案为被认为对适当和安全地进行海洋科学研究至关重要的船舶设备提供资金。该方案为以下项目提供支助：甲板设备，包括用于部署和取回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，以确定研究地点的位置，通信设备，包括用于语音和科学数据通信的无线电收发信机和卫星收发信机，以及用于运送科学家往返数据检索地点的机动工作船等其他设备。项目总监Arthur R.Nowell完全有资格指导这一项目，他在监督船上设备的采购和安装方面拥有丰富的经验。该项目将允许该机构为巴恩斯号购买一台便携式绞车，升级导航设备，更换一艘破旧的工作船，并为汤普森号获得一台电缆故障检测器。

This project will supply shipboard scientific equipment for the research vessels T. THOMPSON and C.A BARNES, operated by the University of Washington, School 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, Arthur R. Nowell is fully qualified to direct this project having had considerable experience in overseeing the acquisition and installation of shipboard equipment. This project will allow the institution to acquire a portable winch, upgrade navigational equipment and replace a worn out work boat for the BARNES, and obtain a cable fault detector for the THOMPSON.
