Shipboard Technician Support

华盛顿大学海洋学院将 获得船上技术人员活动的支持， 这两艘研究船是由联合国管理的， 地点：R/V托马斯THOMPSON和R/V CLIFFORD巴恩斯。 一 船舶运营时间表的重要部分， 近年来，展望未来，支持NSF- 赞助的研究项目。 船上技术员 该计划有两个组成部分：海上部分和岸上部分 成分 海上部分包括指导科学 使用共用船上设备的人员; 科学仪器的安装、修理和校准; 指导和监督甲板操作;并提供 为即将和即将进行的科学研究提供后勤援助 parties. 在海岸的活动包括维护， 共用航海设备的修理和校准， 协助科学人员准备实地工作， 这艘船 由该奖项资助的船上技术人员 广泛的责任，提供协调和 成功完成研究所需的援助 海上项目。 活动水平和支助数额 与船只的大小和能力密切相关， 以及它的科学装备和能力。

The School of Oceanography at University of Washington will receive support for shipboard technician activities associ- ated with the two research vessels operated by the Univer- sity: the R/V THOMAS THOMPSON and R/V CLIFFORD BARNES. A significant portion of the ships' 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.
