项目摘要

9709543 Robinson The Paleobiology Section of the University of Colorado Museum (UCM) is focused on the Paleogene fossil record of the Rocky Mountain region, and includes significant collections of vertebrate fossils from most of the Larsmide basins of the Rocky Mountains. The Wasatch, Willwood, Huerfano, Bridger, and White River Formations are especially well represented. In this project, the UCM will curate and house backlog collections and rehouse portions of curated collections so they will be more available for research and education. In order to effect the goals of the project, 1) 44 archival cabinets and 438 drawers of three different sizes will be acquired; 2) 1,355 archival boxes to hold existing osteology collection specimens will be purchased; 3) backlog collections will be curated; 4) cumulative curatorial problems within the existing collections will be corrected; and 5) a collections manager will be employed to work with curators, and supervise GRAs, work-study students, and volunteers in order to complete the proposed project in a professional and timely manner. In partnership with the NSF, the University of Colorado is providing partial support for the collections manager position during the project, and will make permanent and fully support the position after the completion of the project.

9709543罗宾逊科罗拉多大学博物馆(UCM)的古生物学部分主要关注落基山脉地区的古近纪化石记录，包括来自落基山脉大部分拉斯米德盆地的大量脊椎动物化石收藏。Wasatch、Willwood、Huerfano、Bridger和White River地层尤其具有代表性。在这个项目中，UCM将管理和安置积压的藏品，并重新安置部分经过策展的藏品，以便它们更多地用于研究和教育。为了实现该项目的目标，1)将购买44个档案柜和438个不同大小的抽屉；2)将购买1,355个档案盒以存放现有的骨学收藏标本；3)将对积压的藏品进行管理；4)将纠正现有藏品中累积的馆藏问题；5)将聘请一名藏品经理与馆长合作，监督GRAS、勤工俭学学生和志愿者，以便以专业和及时的方式完成拟议的项目。科罗拉多大学与国家科学基金会合作，在项目期间为藏品管理员职位提供部分支持，并将在项目完成后为该职位提供长期和全面支持。
