9819731授予马萨诸塞州的伍兹霍尔海洋研究所的Coburanus合同将提供设备，支持R/V Atlantis、R/V Knorr和R/V Oeanus的海洋学研究，这三艘研究船由该研究所运营，是大学-国家海洋学实验室系统研究船队的一部分。需要购置的具体设备包括消防设备、空气压缩机、振动监测设备、防曝晒服、舷外发动机、滑轮和工具货车，以支持遥控车辆作业、X波段雷达的升级以及一艘硬壳充气艇的替换管。 除了为自己的船只提供设备外，WHOI还将购买与自己相同的振动监测系统，安装在姐妹船R/V Wecoma（俄勒冈州州立大学）和R/V奋进号（罗得岛大学）上，并为所有三个地点的船员培训提供资金。 这里支助的共用设备将协助海洋科学家在1999年和今后几年从伍兹霍尔号研究船在世界各地的海洋进行研究。***

9819731CoburnThis award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts will provide equipment in support of oceanographic research on R/V Atlantis, R/V Knorr and R/V Oeanus, three research vessels operated by the institution as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. Specific equipment to be acquired includes fire fighting equipment, an air compressor, vibration monitoring equipment, exposure suits, an outboard engine, a sheave and tool van to support remotely-operated vehicle operations, an upgrade to an X-band radar, and replacement tubes for one rigid-hull inflatable boat. In addition to equipment for their own vessels, WHOI will acquire vibration monitoring systems identical to their own to be installed on sister vessels R/V Wecoma (Oregon State University) and R/V Endeavor (University of Rhode Island), and funds are provided here for training of ships' personnel at all three sites. The shared-use equipment supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies from Woods Hole research vessels throughout the world ocean during 1999 and future years. ***
