An Absolute Gravity Facility for Global Geophysical Studies:Participation by NOAA-NOS

小行星9417446 该奖项为位于科罗拉多博尔德桌山的NOAA地球科学实验室提供资金，用于支持绝对重力测量设施三年，该设施将供美国学术界使用。 诺阿地球科学实验室将安装科罗拉多大学最近购置的一套新的绝对重力仪系统，定期校准仪器并根据需要进行维修，并在现场部署成套仪器期间向设施用户提供现场工程援助。 该仪器将主要用于全球海平面、造山运动、地壳变形、地震以及探测地下水和岩浆运动的基础和应用研究。 ***

9417446 Carter This award provides funding to the NOAA Geosciences Laboratory, Table Mountain, Boulder, Colorado for three years of support of an absolute gravity measuring facility which will be operated for the use of the academically based U.S. geophysics research community. The NOAA Geosciences Laboratory will house a new absolute gravity meter system recently acquired by the University of Colorado, periodically calibrate the instrument and keep it in repair as needed, and provide field engineering assistance to users of the facility during field deployments of the instrument package. The instrument will be used primarily in basic and applied studies of global sea level, mountain building, crustal deformation, earthquakes, and the detection of underground movement of water and magma. ***
