An Appraisal of Field Station and Marine Laboratory Needs for the Next Decade

9503675 Allen-Lohr，S. E. 生物野外站组织（OBFS）和国家海洋实验室协会（NAML）将对下一个十年的野外站和海洋实验室需求进行评估。 野外台站和海洋实验室是环境研究和培训的重要场所。 这些设施代表了公共和私营机构的大量和持续投资，但通常装备不足，无法迅速应对新的研究需求。 正在进行的项目是实地站和海洋实验室，它们往往缺乏设施和设备。 对现有设施和未来需求进行客观评估和分析，将使实地站和海洋实验室受益匪浅，从而更好地促进新出现的国家研究议程。 该项目将对所有实地台站和海洋实验室的需要进行分析，以此作为评估的基础，并将在一份公布的报告中提出建议。 由此产生的文件应有助于指导潜在的供资来源、管理人员和其他监督野外台站和海洋实验室设施的人作出决定。

9503675 Allen-Lohr, S. E. The Organization of Biological Field Stations (OBFS) and the National Association of Marine Laboratories (NAML) will conduct an appraisal of field station and marine laboratory needs for the next decade. Field stations and marine laboratories are important sites for environmental research and training. These facilities represent a large and continuing investment by both public and private institutions, but are generally under equipped to respond rapidly to new research needs. Ongoing projects are field stations and marine laboratories often suffer from inadequate facilities and equipment. Field Stations and marine laboratories would benefit greatly by an objective assessment and analysis of current facilities and future needs, to better facilitate emerging national research agendas. This project will underwrite that assessment by conducting an analysis of the needs of all field stations and marine laboratories and will provide recommendations in a published report. The resulting document should serve to guide potential funding sources, administrators, and others who have oversight of field station and marine laboratory facilities as they make decisions.
