Oceanographic Technical Services, 2009-2011, R/V Wecoma

俄勒冈州州立大学建议支持R/V韦科马，一个185？通用研究船作为大学-国家海洋学实验室系统研究船队的一部分。 该船由国家科学基金会拥有。该提案要求对基本服务和专门服务提供支助。 在基本服务方面，它们将为“韦科马”号研究船的每次航行提供一名或两名船上技术员，以支持海上研究项目，并维护、校准和向合格用户提供共用研究仪器。 作为专门服务的一部分，他们将继续运营和维护NORCOR设施，这是一个供所有运营商使用的共用取芯设施，并继续开发和支持SWAP工作，这是一个船对船和船对海岸的通信协议。 本提案中包含的预算用于3年连续赠款的第一年。

Oregon State University proposes to support technical services on R/V Wecoma, a 185? general purpose research vessel as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. The vessel is owned by the National Science Foundation. The proposal requests support for both basic and specialized services. For basic services, they will provide one or two shipboard technicians on each cruise of R/V Wecoma to support seagoing research projects and to maintain, calibrate and provide for qualified users items from their pool of shared-use research instrumentation. As part of specialized services, they will continue to operate and maintain the NORCOR facility, a shared use coring facility available to all operators as well as continue development and support for the SWAP effort, a ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore communications protocol. The budget included with this proposal is for the first year of a 3-year continuing grant.
