Elemental analysis instrumentation will support the current and future research and education needs of California State University, San Marcos (CSUSM), a rapidly growing, minority-serving university in north San Diego County, California. The instrumentation includes: (1) a flow injection ion analyzer for the rapid and routine analysis of ions in seawater and brackish water (nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, silicate, ortho-phosphate, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus) and soil and/or plant samples (ortho-phosphate, total phosphate, and total Kjeldahl nitrogen) and (2) a flame atomic absorption spectrometer for the quantitative measurement of metals and cations in water, soil, skeletal, and tissue samples.Users of these instruments include biology faculty, graduate (M.S.) students and advanced undergraduate students. Projects include research on nutrient cycling in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This equipment will substantially increase the research, research training, and educational capabilities of the CSUSM ecology and environmental science programs. This instrumentation is the first stage in equipping the new elemental analysis facility which will increase opportunities for external funding of research and research training initiatives, and enhance collaborative partnerships in the region.

元素分析仪器将支持加州州立大学圣马科斯分校（CSUSM）当前和未来的研究和教育需求，这是一所快速发展的少数民族大学，位于加州圣地亚哥县北部。仪器包括：（1）流动注射离子分析仪，用于快速和常规分析海水和微咸水中的离子（硝酸盐、亚硝酸盐、铵、硅酸盐、正磷酸盐、总氮和总磷）和土壤和/或植物样品（正磷酸盐、总磷酸盐和总凯氏氮）和（2）用于定量测量水、土壤、骨骼、这些仪器的用户包括生物学教师，研究生（M.S.）学生和高级本科生。 项目包括研究水生和陆地生态系统中的养分循环。这些设备将大大提高CSUSM生态和环境科学计划的研究，研究培训和教育能力。这套仪器是装备新的元素分析设施的第一阶段，这将增加外部资助研究和研究培训举措的机会，并加强该区域的合作伙伴关系。
