Improvements to the Coral Reef Research Foundation Palau Laboratory

该项目将支持改进西卡罗来纳州科罗尔的珊瑚礁研究基金会实验室。CRRF实验室是一个新的设施，它正在迅速发展一批使用该设施的外部研究人员和教育项目。帕劳是一个海洋多样性很高的地区，有各种各样的海洋栖息地，包括极其罕见的热带海洋湖泊。CRRF实验室致力于协助研究人员和教育项目，同时维持物种水平的海洋多样性和其他海洋生物研究的内部计划。该项目将支持购买实验室设备(显微镜、通用实验室仪器、计算机设备)和材料，用于建造一个小型湿实验室，供教育方案和外部研究人员使用。

This project will support improvements to the Coral Reef Research Foundation Laboratory in Koror, Polau, Western Caroline Islands. The CRRF Laboratory is a new facility which is rapidly developing a group of outside researchers and education programs that use the facility. Palau is an area of high marine diversity with a wide variety of marine habitats, including tropical marine lakes which are extremely rare. The CRRF Laboratory is heavily committed to assisting researchers and education programs, while maintaining an in-house program of species-level marine diversity and other marine biological research. The project will support the acquisition of laboratory equipment (microscopy, general laboratory instrumentation, computer equipment) and materials for construction of a small wet laboratory for use by education programs and outside researchers.
