0004070MayerThis grant provides 50% support for acquisition of an ion chromatograph (IC) for water chemistry analysis at the State University of West Georgia (UWG). UWG will provide the remaining funding. The PI , James Mayer, is a hydrogeologist who joined the UWG faculty 5 years ago after receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin. The IC will also be used by Joe Hendricks, Andy Leavitt, and Curtis Hollabaugh of the UWG Biology, Chemistry, and Geology departments, respectively. The IC will reside in the Geosciences Department where it will complement existing equipment and allow rapid, precise and thorough analysis of major anion, cation and inorganic nutrient concentrations in water. Addition of the IC to laboratory and field equipment already owned by the Geoscience Department will create a state-of-the art inorganic water-chemistry laboratory at UWG that will see extensive use by faculty and undergraduate students. UWG is a predominantly undergraduate institution with a strong tradition of student involvement in research. The IC will greatly improve opportunities for students to learn modern, fundamental analytical techniques and produce scientifically valuable research results. The IC will be used primarily for groundwater and surface water geochemical studies in the Piedmont, Valley-and-Ridge and Appalachian Plateau physiographic provinces of the southeastern U.S. It will also be used in studies assessing net primary production implications of different forest management techniques.***

0004070迈尔该赠款为西格鲁吉亚州立大学（UWG）购买用于水化学分析的离子色谱仪（IC）提供50%的支持。 UWG将提供剩余资金。 PI，詹姆斯迈耶，是一个水文地质学家谁加入UWG教师5年前获得博士学位后，来自德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校。 该IC还将分别由UWG生物学、化学和地质学系的Joe Hendricks、Andy Leavitt和Curtis Hollabaugh使用。 该IC将设在地球科学部，它将补充现有的设备，并允许快速，准确和彻底的分析主要阴离子，阳离子和无机营养物的浓度在水中。 将IC添加到地球科学系已经拥有的实验室和现场设备中，将在UWG创建一个最先进的无机水化学实验室，该实验室将被教师和本科生广泛使用。UWG是一所以本科为主的机构，具有学生参与研究的悠久传统。 IC将大大提高学生学习现代基础分析技术和产生有科学价值的研究成果的机会。 IC将主要用于美国东南部皮埃蒙特、山谷和山脊以及阿巴拉契亚高原自然地理省的地下水和地表水地球化学研究。它还将用于评估不同森林管理技术对净初级生产影响的研究。*
