0236481YogodzinskiThis grant provides support for the acquisition of a quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (QICPMS), to be housed in the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of South Carolina. This project is a collaborative effort among faculty from the Department of Geological Sciences, the interdisciplinary Marine Science Program, and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. The instrumentation will be used for research in the diverse fields of igneous processes, chemical oceanography, paleoclimate, and hydrogeology. The broad goal of this acquisition is to expand the trace element and isotope tracer research capabilities of the Department of Geological Sciences, and to help build a critical mass of faculty and students that are interesting in conducting this kind of research at the University of South Carolina. The requested funds reflect 70% of the cost of the instrumentation (QICPMS with collision cell) plus three months of technician support and one month of PI salary. The cost of the instrumentation includes factory and on-site training by the manufacturer, as well as two years of service and maintenance beyond the initial one-year warranty. All faculty involved in this project involve both graduate and undergraduate students in their research. The interdepartmental and interdisciplinary nature of this project provides a significant opportunity to transfer analytical expertise to geology faculty and students from the chemistry department, and at the same time, create collaborative opportunities for chemistry faculty and students in the earth and ocean sciences. In addition to the abundant and diverse research applications that provide the primary justification for funding this project, use of the proposed instrumentation will also be integrated into the geology curriculum through some 300 and 500-level courses in geology and oceanography.***

0236481 Yogodzinski该赠款用于支持购买四极电感耦合等离子体质谱仪（QICPMS），该质谱仪将被安置在南卡罗来纳州大学地质科学系。 该项目是地质科学系，跨学科海洋科学计划以及化学和生物化学系教师之间的合作努力。 这些仪器将用于火成岩过程、化学海洋学、古气候和水文地质学等不同领域的研究。 此次收购的广泛目标是扩大地质科学系的微量元素和同位素示踪剂研究能力，并帮助建立一个临界质量的教师和学生有兴趣在南卡罗来纳州大学进行这种研究。 所要求的资金反映了仪器（QICPMS与碰撞室）费用的70%，加上三个月的技术支持和一个月的PI工资。 仪器的成本包括制造商的工厂和现场培训，以及最初一年保修期外的两年服务和维护。 参与这个项目的所有教师都让研究生和本科生参与他们的研究。 该项目的跨部门和跨学科性质提供了一个重要的机会，将分析专业知识转移到化学系的地质学教师和学生，同时为地球和海洋科学的化学教师和学生创造合作机会。 除了为资助该项目提供主要理由的丰富多样的研究应用外，拟议仪器的使用也将通过地质学和海洋学的约300和500级课程纳入地质学课程。
