Oceanographic Instrumentation

该奖项授予阿拉斯加大学费尔班克斯分校，为更新和扩展阿尔法·螺旋号研究船的海洋研究能力提供仪器，该船由该大学海洋科学研究所运营，是大学-国家海洋实验室系统(UNLS)研究船队的一部分。这里支持的具体仪器包括两个荧光计和接口，以连接到现有的MOCNESS网络系统，十个水样瓶，以及将现有的浮游生物光学计数器升级为激光版本。这些改进将对海洋科学家在2001年和未来几年使用这艘船进行研究有很大的好处。

0096544WeingartnerThis award to University of Alaska Fairbanks provides instrumentation to update and expand the oceanographic research capabilities of the research vessel Alpha Helix, a ship operated by the University's Institute of Marine Science as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. Specific instrumentation supported here includes two fluorometers plus interfacing to attach to an existing MOCNESS net system, ten water sampling bottles, and an upgrade of an existing optical plankton counter to a laser version of same. These improvements will be of substantial advantage to marine scientists using the ship in their research during 2001 and future years.***
