点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This Small Grants for Exploratory Research (SGER) project will provide The Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium (LUMCON) emergency funding for the reestablishment of research capabilities that were lost or damaged during the passage of Hurricane ANDREW in August 1992. NSF funds will be used to permit the acquisition of shared-use equipment and rebuild the nutrient analysis laboratory. This facility supports several ongoing NSF-funded research projects. Funds will also be used to design a new marine operations building that will better protect the equipment, supplies, and electronics activities from storm damage. The NSF funds are aimed at assisting the basic research programs that LUMCON conducts.
