0237561CurryThis award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts provides support for the development and fabrication of a piston coring system capable of recovering samples of 40-50 meters length. The award includes support for the corer itself, including a corehead of variable weight from 5 to 13 tons, and including drag plate, altimeter and modem-controlled release. It includes a traction winch capable of 50 tons of pull, suitable for use with 12-strand synthetic braided rope, and a take up drum and level wind system for rope storage. It includes separate winches, sheaves, davits, booms, barrel-racking system, platforms and hydraulic power systems, plus related equipment, suitable for rigging, deploying and recovering the piston corer from a large UNOLS vessel. It includes modifications to R/V Knorr appropriate to ensure that the system can be deployed safely. It is anticipated that the new Long Coring System will provide an important shared-use facility for marine geoscientists, especially those investigating processes involved in ocean and climate history, and we envision it will be heavily used to support sampling programs beginning in about 2006.***

这项授予马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔海洋研究所的奖项为活塞取心系统的开发和制造提供支持，该系统能够回收40-50米长的样品。该奖项包括对取样器本身的支持，包括一个重量从5吨到13吨的变重岩芯，并包括拖板、高度计和调制解调器控制释放。它包括一个能够拉50吨的牵引绞车，适合与12股合成编织绳一起使用，以及一个用于储绳的收线鼓和水平风系统。它包括单独的绞车、滑轮、吊艇架、吊杆、桶架系统、平台和液压动力系统，以及相关设备，适用于从联合国难民事务高级专员办事处的大型船只上索具、部署和回收活塞取样器。它包括对R/V Knorr的适当修改，以确保系统可以安全部署。预计新的长取心系统将为海洋地球科学家提供重要的共用设施，特别是那些调查海洋和气候历史过程的人，我们预计它将在大约2006年开始大量用于支持采样计划。*
