The University of Georgia is awarded a grant for the acquisition of an NEC NLITE 6 GHz Microwave Radio system that will handle all communication services between the UGA Marine Institute at Sapelo Island (UGAMI) and the mainland link to telephone and Internet services. This equipment will greatly increase research productivity and learning opportunities for resident and visiting scientists and classes. The UGA Marine Institute supports resident Research Scientists, visiting research programs with affiliated university faculty and NOAA programs, graduate and undergraduate student research, college level educational field programs, and outreach for public education in marine systems. Established in 1953 by UGA and R.J. Reynolds, Jr., the Institute occupies over 100,000 sq. ft. of buildings, the majority of which were formerly part of a farm complex dating to the early 1930's. UGAMI has multiple labs, offices, a 150-seat auditorium, a library, and an indoor salt water wet lab facility with tanks and running seawater. UGAMI also maintains a small fleet of boats for research, and on-island housing for resident and visiting scientists, class groups, and essential staff that include 25 residential units and 2 dormitory-style buildings (45 beds). This award will result in stable, reliable communications and data transfer for all at UGAMI, as well as the face-to-face video collaborations and seminar interactions that are particularly important for research at a remote field station such as UGAMI; a necessity in today's research environment.

格鲁吉亚大学获得了一笔赠款，用于购买NEC NLITE 6 GHz微波无线电系统，该系统将处理萨佩洛岛UGA海洋研究所（UGAMI）与大陆之间的所有通信服务，以电话和互联网服务。 这些设备将大大提高研究生产力，并为常驻和访问科学家和班级提供学习机会。UGA海洋研究所支持驻地研究科学家，访问研究计划与附属大学教师和NOAA计划，研究生和本科生的研究，大学水平的教育领域的计划，并在海洋系统的公共教育外展。 成立于1953年由UGA和RJ雷诺兹，小，学院占地10万多平方米，英尺这些建筑物中的大部分以前是一个可以追溯到20世纪30年代初的农场建筑群的一部分。UGAMI拥有多个实验室，办公室，一个150个座位的礼堂，一个图书馆和一个室内盐水湿实验室设施，其中包括水箱和流动海水。UGAMI还拥有一支小型研究船队，并为居民和访问科学家，班级团体和基本工作人员提供岛上住房，包括25个住宅单元和2个宿舍式建筑（45张床位）。 该奖项将为UGAMI的所有人带来稳定，可靠的通信和数据传输，以及面对面的视频合作和研讨会互动，这对UGAMI等偏远现场站的研究尤为重要;这是当今研究环境的必要条件。有关UGAMI的更多信息，请参阅该研究所的网页http://www.uga.edu/ugami/。
