0321319EckertThis Major Research Instrumentation award to University of Alaska Southeast Juneau Campus provides funds for acquisition of field instrumentation for research in coastal oceanography and marine ecology. Instruments supported here include (1) a portable, battery-powered conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) instrument with a water sampling carousel and bottles, plus ancillary PAR (photosynthetic available radiation), fluorometer, dissolved oxygen and transmissometer sensors and (2) a multiple opening-closing net system for sampling individual layers of the water column The instruments will be used in a variety of projects, mostly in Glacier Bay, Alaska, to study planktonic communities and their relationships to physical, chemical and biological properties in the coastal and estuarine waters of southeastern Alaska. They will enable research projects involving young faculty and students at this predominantly-undergraduate campus, and they will be used to attract students, especially members of underrepresented groups, into marine science careers via field courses and the campus' Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The instrumentation award is supported by the Division of Ocean Sciences at NSF. ***

0321319 Eckert阿拉斯加大学东南朱诺校区的主要研究仪器奖为沿海海洋学和海洋生态学研究的现场仪器采购提供资金。 这里支持的仪器包括（1）便携式、电池供电的电导率-温度-深度（CTD）仪器，带有水取样转盘和瓶子，以及辅助PAR（光合有效辐射）、荧光计、溶解氧和透射计传感器，以及（2）用于对水柱各层进行采样的多重开合网系统。这些仪器将用于各种项目，主要是在阿拉斯加的冰川湾，研究阿拉斯加东南部沿海和河口沃茨的浮游生物群落及其与物理、化学和生物特性的关系。 他们将使研究项目，涉及年轻的教师和学生在这个占主导地位的本科校园，他们将被用来吸引学生，特别是代表性不足的群体的成员，通过实地课程和校园的研究经验为本科生（REU）计划进入海洋科学的职业生涯。 该仪器奖得到了美国国家科学基金会海洋科学部的支持。***
