Ship Operations

小罗利9701522 夏威夷大学将于1997年操作R/V MOANA WAVE，作为一艘一般海洋学船，以支持国家科学基金会资助的研究项目。 MOANA WAVE是一艘210英尺的研究船，由美国海军拥有，并作为UNOLS船支持学术研究。 该船计划服役190天，其中170天用于支持NSF赞助的项目。 所有的游轮都在太平洋，三个NSF游轮在关岛附近。 其余的NSF巡航是短期的夏威夷，以支持夏威夷时间序列项目。 此外，该船将支持NOAA的三次短途航行。 MOANA WAVE是NSF用于支持海洋学研究的学术船队的一部分。 大多数海洋学研究需要高度专业化的设备，这些设备必须永久安装在船上，船舶必须专门设计。 这些设备还需要训练有素的机组人员进行维护和操作。 这些船只的操作方式与普通货船或渔船不同，因此，NSF支持专门用于海洋研究的各种船只的操作 的 由全国各地的大学和研究机构运营。 ***

9701522 RALEIGH The University of Hawaii will operate the R/V MOANA WAVE in 1997 as a general oceanographic vessel in support of NSF-funded research projects. The MOANA WAVE is a 210' research vessel owned by the U.S. Navy and operated as a UNOLS vessel in support of academic research. The ship is scheduled for 190 days of which 170 are in support of NSF-sponsored programs. All of the cruises are in the Pacific with three NSF cruises in the vicinity of Guam. The remaining NSF cruises are of short duration out of Hawaii in support the Hawaii Time Series project. In addition the vessel will support three short cruises for NOAA. The MOANA WAVE is part of the academic fleet used by NSF to support oceanographic research. Most oceanographic research requires highly specialized equipment that must be permanently installed on a ship for which the ship must be specifically designed. This equipment also requires highly trained crew members for maintenance and operation. These vessels do not operate in the same manner as general cargo or fishing vessels, therefore, NSF supports the operation of a variety of vessels specifically dedicated to oceanographic research that are operated by universities and research institutions around the country. ***
