Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment

2009年7月9日建议编号：0943737机构：圣何塞州立大学MLMLPI：S.LamerdinCo-PI：K.Coal本奖项由2009年美国复苏和再投资法案(公法111-5)资助。提案要求为莫斯登陆海洋实验室(MLML)运营的船只提供大量船上科学支持(SSSE)项目；即R/V Point Sur。这些请求特别包括从过去的NSF检查或邮轮后评估(PCA)中建议的项目，以及运营商因成本原因而推迟的项目。所有要求的物品要么提高了安全性，增强了科学保障能力，要么延长了船只的使用寿命。由于这些请求的性质和时间，SSSE方案通常要求的供应商报价标准由于必要而被放弃，其中许多数字作为预算目的估计，主要基于船舶运营商过去从事类似工作的经验。更广泛的影响：R/V点SOR支持联邦政府资助的太平洋西北地区的科学研究，以扩大人类对海洋环境的了解。在运营期间，这艘船通常会让研究生和本科生接触海洋海洋学。还通过国家海岸综合观测、研究和教育中心(CI-CORE)和海岸技术联盟(ACT)计划、船舶到海岸的实时卫星连接和开放参观活动实现了公共宣传。南点计划在2009年完成130多天的NSF赞助活动。

ABSTRACT 09 July 2009Proposal Number: 0943737Institution: San Jose State University, MLMLPI: S. LamerdinCo-PI: K. CoaleThis award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).The proposal requests numerous Shipboard Scientific Support (SSSE) items for the vessel operated by Moss Landing Marine Labs (MLML); namely the R/V POINT SUR. The requests specifically include items that have been recommended from past NSF inspections, or Post-Cruise Assessments (PCA's) and have been otherwise deferred by the operators due to cost. All of the items requested will either improve safety, enhance science support capability, or extend vessel service life. Due to the nature and timing of these requests, the vendor quotation standards normally required by the SSSE Program were waived out of necessity with many of the figures provided as estimates for budgetary purposes and based mainly on past experience of the vessel operators for similar work. Broader Impacts: The R/V POINT SUR supports federally funded scientific research in the Pacific Northwest in order to expand human knowledge of the ocean environment. During operations, the vessel routinely exposes graduate and undergraduate students to seagoing oceanography. Pubic outreach is also achieved through the State's Center for Integrative Coastal Observation, Research and Education program (CI-CORE) and the Alliance for Coastal Technologies program (ACT), real-time satellite connectivity from ship to shore, and open house events. The POINT SUR scheduled to complete over 130 NSF sponsored days in 2009.
