This award supports the purchase of an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer, an Autoanalyzer, and related peripheral equipment for the stable isotope laboratory at Boston University. The laboratory provides service for a significant number of researchers at the University and at other institutions in the area who use stable isotope analysis to answer questions in ecosystem ecology, animal physiology, marine food web dynamics, coastal biogeochemistry, and paleo-oceanography. Besides increasing basic knowledge in these areas, the data to be obtained will contribute to the management of highly eutrophied coastal areas and to pest control practices in agriculture.

该奖项支持为波士顿大学稳定同位素实验室购买同位素比质谱仪、自动分析仪和相关外围设备。 该实验室为该大学和该地区其他机构的大量研究人员提供服务，他们使用稳定同位素分析来回答生态系统生态学、动物生理学、海洋食物网动力学、沿海生物地球化学和古海洋学方面的问题。 除了增加这些领域的基础知识外，所获得的数据还将有助于高度富营养化沿海地区的管理和农业害虫防治实践。
