An award has been made to Paul Smith's College under the direction of Dr. Daniel Kelting for the acquisition of a suite of instruments to be used in on ecological research and teaching. The instrument will enable measurement of elemental analysis of biological samples, measurement of carbon and nitrogen content in aquatic and terrestrial samples, and metal content in plant and soil samples. Such data can be used in studies of ecosystem studies of forests and lakes near the college, and in watershed monitoring. The instruments will be used by biology students in a capstone course on field ecology. The equipment will also be a community resource for residents in the Adirondack Park area surrounding the campus.

在丹尼尔·凯尔廷博士的指导下，保罗·史密斯学院因购买了一套用于生态学研究和教学的仪器而获奖。该仪器将能够测量生物样品的元素分析，测量水生和陆地样品中的碳和氮含量，以及植物和土壤样品中的金属含量。这些数据可用于学院附近森林和湖泊的生态系统研究，以及流域监测。这些仪器将供生物学专业的学生在田野生态学的顶峰课程中使用。这些设备也将成为校园周围阿迪朗达克公园地区居民的社区资源。
