The Department of Oceanography at Texas A & M University will receive support for shipboard technician activities associated with the R/V GYRE, a 180-foot research vessel owned by the Navy and operated by the University. A significant portion of the ship's operating schedule in recent years and looking ahead are in support of NSF- sponsored research projects. The Shipboard Technician Program has two components: an at-sea component and an ashore component. The at-sea component consists of instructing scientific personnel in the use of shared shipboard equipment; mainten- ance, repair, and calibration of scientific instrumentation; instruction and supervision of deck operations; and providing logistics assistance to on-coming and off-going scientific parties. On shore activities include the maintenance, repair, and calibration of shared use seagoing equipment and assisting scientific personnel in preparing for field work on the vessel. Shipboard technicians funded by this award have broad responsibilities for providing the coordination and assistance needed for the successful completion of research projects at sea. The level of activity and amount of support are closely related to the size and capability of the vessel, and its scientific outfit and capability.

德克萨斯农工大学海洋学系将为与R/V环流号相关的船上技术人员活动提供支持。R/V环流号是一艘180英尺长的科考船，由德克萨斯A&A&M大学运营。这艘船近年来和未来的运营计划中有很大一部分是支持NSF赞助的研究项目的。舰载技师计划有两个组成部分：海上组成部分和岸上组成部分。海上部分包括指导科学人员使用共享的船上设备；维护、修理和校准科学仪器；指导和监督甲板作业；以及向来往的科学人员提供后勤援助。陆上活动包括维护、修理和校准共享使用的海上设备，并协助科学人员为船上的实地工作做准备。由该奖项资助的船上技术人员在提供成功完成海上研究项目所需的协调和援助方面负有广泛的责任。活动的程度和支援的数量与舰艇的大小和能力以及其科学装备和能力密切相关。
