Project Summary Oregon State University proposes to operate the Research Vessel WECOMA in support ofNational Science Foundation (NSF) funded scientific research at sea. WECOMA'S primary purpose is to support oceanographic and atmospheric research throughout the Northeastern Pacific for a variety of scientists from around the United States and overseas. The funded research is expected to enhance understanding of various oceanic, geophysical/geological and atmospheric processes, contribute to ecological knowledge in the study areas and provide opportunities for graduate students in atmospheric and oceanic science to gain research experience at sea.WECOMA, an "Intermediate" sized oceanographic research vessel, is well suited to meet the support needs of the research at an economic cost. In 2005, the ship has a schedule of 236 days, of which 214 will directly support NSF funded research. The ship is owned by NSF and is operated by OSU. A five year cooperative agreement will be issued and budgets from 2006-2009 will be renegotiated yearly and will depend on the number of days in support of NSF funded research programs. The ship serves as a platform for the funded research programs.Broader ImpactsWECOMA, as part of Oregon State University's College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, provides educational and at-sea research opportunities for graduate, and occasionally undergraduate, students. In '04 two "teachers at sea" were able to participate in a cruise by an OSU PI. WECOMA has hosted a number of tours for students from Oregon schools. Public open houses are held when the schedule allows, including participation in the Hatfield Marine Science Center's annual "HMSeaFest." A variety of OSU and NOAA researchers associated with OSU's Hatfield Marine Science Center have been featured in articles in Oregon and Washington newspapers as well as coverage on TV and radio news featuring their NSF and NOAA funded work on WECOMA. Our own web site, along with those maintained by PI's, track WECOMA's daily progress and provide insight into the science being done on the vessel.In addition to supporting the R/V WECOMA, OSU's Ship Operations facility in Newport, OR manages the UNOLS/NSF West Coast Van Pool and provides berthing space and logistics support for other research vessels. The van pool currently has a radioisotope van, cold van and general lab van in inventory.

俄勒冈州立大学提议运营研究船WECOMA，以支持国家科学基金会（NSF）资助的海上科学研究。WECOMA的主要目的是为来自美国和海外的各种科学家支持整个东北太平洋的海洋学和大气研究。获资助的研究将有助加深对各种海洋、地球物理/地质及大气过程的认识，为研究领域的生态知识作出贡献，并为大气及海洋科学的研究生提供在海上进行研究的机会。WECOMA是一艘“中型”海洋研究船，非常适合以经济成本满足研究的支持需求。2005年，该船的行程为236天，其中214天将直接支持国家科学基金会资助的研究。这艘船归美国国家科学基金会所有，由俄勒冈州立大学运营。一份为期五年的合作协议将会发布，2006-2009年的预算将每年重新协商一次，并将取决于支持NSF资助的研究项目的天数。这艘船是资助研究项目的平台。更广泛的影响作为俄勒冈州立大学海洋与大气科学学院的一部分，ecoma为研究生，偶尔也为本科生提供教育和海上研究机会。2004年，两名“海上教师”参加了俄勒冈州立大学PI的一次巡航。WECOMA为来自俄勒冈州学校的学生举办了多次参观活动。在时间允许的情况下，会举行公众开放日，包括参加哈特菲尔德海洋科学中心的年度“HMSeaFest”。俄勒冈州立大学和美国国家海洋和大气管理局哈特菲尔德海洋科学中心的许多研究人员在俄勒冈州和华盛顿州的报纸以及电视和广播新闻中都有报道，介绍了他们在美国国家科学基金会和美国国家海洋和大气管理局资助下的关于WECOMA的工作。我们自己的网站，以及PI维护的网站，跟踪WECOMA的日常进展，并提供对船上正在进行的科学研究的见解。除了支持R/V WECOMA外，俄勒冈州立大学位于纽波特的船舶运营设施还管理着UNOLS/NSF西海岸面包车池，并为其他研究船提供停泊空间和后勤支持。货车库目前有一辆放射性同位素货车，一辆冷藏货车和一辆普通实验室货车。
