Aquisition of a High Resolution Inductively-Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer for Analysis of Biological, Environmental,and Chemical Samples

Old Dominion公司获得的这一重大研究仪器奖为环境和海洋科学研究提供了一个高分辨率电感耦合等离子体质谱仪和激光烧蚀系统。它将特别用于研究鱼类补充动态、种群结构和迁移模式、硫和类金属元素的生物地球化学以及河口、沿海和公海环境中微量金属的络合作用和形态。该机构将让研究生参与研究，本科生参与正在进行的实习项目。该项目得到了美国国家科学基金会海洋科学部的支持。老道明大学将提供超过项目总成本35%的成本分担支持。＊＊＊

9871047 Jones This Major Research Instrumentation award to Old Dominion provides a high resolution inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer with laser ablation system for environmental and ocean sciences research. It will be particularly used in research on fish recruitment dynamics, population structure and migration patterns, biogeochemistry of sulfur and metalloid elements, and complexation and speciation of trace metals in estuarine, coastal and open ocean settings. The facility will involve graduate students in research, and undergraduates through its ongoing internship program. The project is supported by the Division of Ocean Sciences at NSF. Old Dominion University will provide cost-share support for more than 35% of total project costs. ***
