1040107WoodsThis award supports the acquisition of an ICP-OES for geological and biological research. Requested are analytical capabilities sought by both geological and biological researchers at CSU-Fullerton. The instrument will offer in-house analyses to support extramurally-funded research now requiring contract laboratory contracts. The PIs will attack a range of research themes including paleoenvironmental reconstructions, environmental biogeochemistry, tephrochronology and marine ecology. Tephra beds will be assayed in order to better understand paleogeography. Metal contaminants will be assessed in impacted environments. For the marine ecology applications, the PIs will track seawater elemental flow between marine organism populations. The instrument will directly support students affiliated with the PIs. It is also proposed as a teaching resource for non-major courses. CSUF is a Hispanic Serving Institute with close to 50% of biology graduates being women. Research results will be published in peer-reviewed literature. The lead PI will house and administer the instrument. New users will be trained before being allowed to operate the instrument. The instrument will be made a regional resource for 15 local colleges/universities. Cost re-charges will be instituted to support long-term maintenance.***

1040107 Woods该奖项支持获得用于地质和生物研究的ICP-OES。CSU富勒顿的地质和生物研究人员都要求具备分析能力。该仪器将提供内部分析，以支持现在需要合同实验室合同的外部资助研究。PI将攻击一系列的研究主题，包括古环境重建，环境地球化学，火山灰年代学和海洋生态学。火山灰层将被化验，以便更好地了解古地理。将在受影响的环境中评估金属污染物。对于海洋生态应用，PI将跟踪海洋生物种群之间的海水元素流。该工具将直接支持与PI有关的学生。它也被建议作为非专业课程的教学资源。CSUF是一个西班牙裔服务机构，近50%的生物学毕业生是女性。研究结果将发表在同行评审的文献中。主要PI将存放和管理仪器。新用户在被允许操作仪器之前将接受培训。该工具将成为15所地方学院/大学的区域资源。将实行成本再收费，以支持长期维护。*
