0321402WuThis Major Research Instrumentation award to the University of Alaska Fairbanks Campus supports acquisition of a high resolution inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (HR-ICPMS) for oceanographic and geological research. The instrumentation will be housed in the facilities of the Frontier Research Program for Global Change at the International Arctic Research Center, University of Alaska. It will be applied to a variety of projects, with existing support in place to focus on the investigation of iron-binding organic ligands, the use of Pb isotopes to trace Arctic water masses, and use of Ir in ice cores to study variations in cosmic material influx. The mass spectrometer supported here provides a unique capability in the Fairbanks region, and it is expected to catalyze interdisciplinary and extramural collaborations. It is anticipated that training and use of the new instrumentation will be incorporated into courses and research projects involving both undergraduate and graduate students at University of Alaska. University of Alaska and the Frontier Program of IARC are providing 30% of the cost of the project from non-federal funds. It is supported by the Division of Ocean Sciences at NSF.***

0321402Wu授予阿拉斯加大学费尔班克斯校区的这项重大研究仪器奖支持购买一台用于海洋和地质研究的高分辨率电感耦合等离子质谱仪(HR-ICPMS)。该仪器将被安置在阿拉斯加大学国际北极研究中心全球变化前沿研究计划的设施中。它将应用于各种项目，现有的支持将重点放在铁结合有机配体的调查上，利用铅同位素追踪北极水团，以及利用冰芯中的Ir来研究宇宙物质流入的变化。这里支持的质谱仪在费尔班克斯地区提供了独特的能力，预计它将促进跨学科和校外合作。预计新仪器的培训和使用将纳入阿拉斯加大学本科生和研究生的课程和研究项目。阿拉斯加大学和IARC的前沿项目将从非联邦资金中提供该项目成本的30%。它得到了美国国家科学基金会海洋科学部的支持。
