A request is made to fund improvements to the HiSeasNet capability in the UNOLS fleet. The proposal is to enhance HiSeasNet by improving Ku-Band coverage in the Atlantic to include virtually the entire North Atlantic, from the US and Caribbean to Europe, and the Mediterranean. In addition, the proposed work will significantly bolster the performance of the available bandwidth through the use of accelerators to be installed on all of the ships at low cost.13 ea accelerators will be recommended at cost of $51,949Broader Impacts: The acquisition, maintenance and operation of shared-use instrumentation allows NSF-funded researchers from any US university or lab access to working, calibrated instruments for their research, reducing the cost of that research, and expanding the base of potential researchers.

已请求为改进联合国后勤支助处船队的HiSeasNet能力提供资金。该提案旨在通过改善大西洋的Ku波段覆盖范围来增强HiSeasNet，使其几乎覆盖整个北大西洋，从美国和加勒比海到欧洲和地中海。此外，通过使用将以低成本安装在所有船舶上的加速器，拟议工作将显著提高可用带宽的性能。建议使用13个加速器，成本为51，949美元。共享使用仪器的获取，维护和操作允许来自任何美国大学或实验室的NSF资助的研究人员访问工作，校准他们的研究仪器，降低研究成本，扩大潜在研究人员的基础。
