Acquisition of a High-Throughput DNA Sequencer: A Critical Component of the University of Miami Marine Genomics Initiative

0201438本奖项授予迈阿密大学罗森斯蒂尔海洋和大气科学学院，该奖项为使用迈阿密大学和港湾分院海洋研究所运营的三艘考察船的研究人员提供仪器，以改善共享的科学仪器。这三艘船，R/V Seward Johnson，Seward Johnson II和Walton Smith，都是作为大学-国家海洋实验室系统研究船队的一部分运营的。该合同支持的具体仪器包括相控阵、用于安装在R/V Seward Johnson II上的75 kHz声学多普勒海流计，以及用于从三艘船中的任何一艘采集未受干扰的海底样本的多取芯装置。这些新的能力将对海洋科学家在2001年和未来几年使用这些船只进行研究有很大的好处。

0201438FindleyThis award to University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences provides instrumentation to improve the shared-use scientific instrumentation available to researchers using three research ships operated by University of Miami and the Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution. These three vessels, R/Vs Seward Johnson, Seward Johnson II, and Walton Smith, are all operated as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. The specific instrumentation supported by this award includes a phased array, 75 kHz acoustic Doppler current meter for installation on R/V Seward Johnson II, and a multi-corer device for collecting undisturbed seafloor samples from any of the three ships. These new capabilities will be of substantial advantage to marine scientists using the ships in their research during 2001 and future years.
