9311187 Graham, J. Research in Marine Biology at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography involves study of the physiology, cell biology, neurobiology, biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology of marine organisms. Research facilities are generally excellent, but the seawater aquarium facility in Hubbs Hall is badly in need of repair and upgrading in order to meet the demands of its multiple users. This project will assist with this essential renovation which will include the replacement of several aquaria and water tables, replacement of the dilapidated heat exchange system now used to generate insufficient volumes of cool water, and the purchase of a new exchanger to be used in conjunction with a "heated seawater" supply system. These improvements will enhance local research and that of visitors as well as that of the numerous other scientific agencies in San Diego dependent upon the seawater system. ***

9311187斯克里普斯海洋研究所的海洋生物学研究涉及海洋生物的生理学、细胞生物学、神经生物学、生物化学、遗传学和分子生物学。研究设施总体上是一流的，但Hubbs Hall的海水水族馆设施亟需维修和升级，以满足其多个用户的需求。该项目将协助进行这一重大翻修，包括更换几个水族箱和地下水位，更换目前用于产生不足冷水的破旧热交换系统，以及购买一台新的交换器，与“加热海水”供应系统一起使用。这些改进将加强当地的研究和游客的研究，以及圣地亚哥依赖海水系统的许多其他科学机构的研究。***
