0116487AndersenThis award made through the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program, provides support for the acquisition of a suite of instruments to be used in biogeochemical research on surface waters from anthropogenically impacted and pristine rivers in the Piedmont of the southeastern U.S. Researchers and students at Furman University in Greenville, SC in addition to students and faculty from other liberal arts institutions that are a part of the Associated Colleges of the South, will have access to the following: an autoanalyzer for measurement of nutrient concentrations (i.e. NO3-, PO43-); a coulometer system for the determination of the organic carbon load in natural waters; and a fluorometer for the measurement of chlorophyll a. This instrumentation will complement existing analytical instruments at Furman and will advance teaching and training of undergraduate students in the southeastern U.S. with modern analytical methods in aqueous geochemistry.***

0116487安德森通过主要研究仪器（MRI）计划获得的这一奖项为购买一套仪器提供了支持，这些仪器将用于美国东南部皮埃蒙特受气候影响和原始河流的地表沃茨的地球化学研究。SC除了学生和教师从其他文科院校是南方联合学院的一部分，将有机会获得以下：一个自动分析仪测量营养浓度（即NO3-、PO 43-）;用于测定天然沃茨中有机碳负荷的库仑计系统;以及用于测量叶绿素a的荧光计。 该仪器将补充弗曼现有的分析仪器，并将促进美国东南部本科生的教学和培训，采用现代分析方法进行水地球化学研究。
