This award is for support for the operations and maintenance of the U.S. National Ice Core Laboratory, hereinafter called "NICL" a government-owned facility for storing, curating, and studying ice cores recovered from the ice-covered regions of the world. NICL provides NSF- and USGS-funded investigators with the capability to conduct examinations and measurements of ice cores while preserving the integrity of these cores in a safeguarded environment. NICL fosters the utilization of these cores for scientific research by handling inquiries from scientists interested in obtaining samples of ice cores, by making inventory listings easily available through electronic distribution, by acting as an information resource to the scientific community and by improving current technologies for ice core analysis in accordance with the needs and requirements of their client base. NICL is located at the Denver Federal Center in Lakewood, Colorado and is housed administratively within the USGS Office of the Central Regional Geologist, Geologic Division.

该奖项旨在支持美国国家冰芯实验室（以下简称“NICL”）的运营和维护，NICL是一个政府拥有的设施，用于存储，管理和研究从世界冰层覆盖地区回收的冰芯。NICL为NSF和USGS资助的调查人员提供了对冰芯进行检查和测量的能力，同时在安全环境中保持这些冰芯的完整性。NICL通过处理有兴趣获得冰芯样本的科学家的询问，通过电子分发使库存清单易于获得，作为科学界的信息资源，以及根据客户群的需要和要求改进冰芯分析的现有技术，促进这些冰芯用于科学研究。NICL位于科罗拉多莱克伍德的丹佛联邦中心，行政上设在美国地质勘探局地质部中央区域地质学家办公室内。
