Five Year Request for East Coast Winch Facility

2010年6月18日提案编号：1043071机构：伍兹霍尔海洋研究所(WHOI)PI：D.Fisichella该提案请求业务资金，以支持2010年联合国后勤基地东海岸绞盘池。这些设备池支持美国学术研究船舰队中船只上的科学操作，以及美国政府和非政府研究船上其他联邦支持的科学项目。通过水池提供(或即将提供)的绞车类型包括：1.轻型直拉式绞车2.中型直接牵引式绞车3。重型牵引绞车(Jason绞车)4.系泊回收绞车5.专门的处理系统，如GEO轨迹和长岩芯6。便携式电缆绞盘这些绞车和搬运系统可支持联合国后勤基地所有船只上的各种任务。联合国后勤基地东海岸绞盘池和斯克里普斯相应的西海岸绞盘池还将用于确保设备符合联合国后勤基地的现行标准，提供通用设计，并为学术机队和整个科学界提供适当的维护、行政和后勤支助。购买的共用设备以及为支持这些设备而建立的管理结构将为船舶运营商和科学界提供更好的服务。Winch Pool结构还将确保设备的适当维护、设计的通用性、符合当前标准，以及在后勤、跟踪和监督某些共享使用资产方面提高NSF的效率。所支持的研究项目都经过了个别同行评审，以确定其科学价值。伍兹霍尔海洋研究所参与了大量的外展计划，包括海上船只的网络广播、开放参观活动以及其他倡议，如？潜水和发现？和阿尔文号潜水器。

ABSTRACT 18 June 2010Proposal Number: 1043071Institution: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI)PI: D. FisichellaThis proposal requests operational funding to support the UNOLS East Coast Winch Pool in CY 2010. The equipment pools support scientific operations aboard vessels in the US academic research vessel fleet as well as other federally-supported science projects aboard US government and non-government research vessels. The types of winches available (or soon to be available) through the pools include:1. Light-duty direct pull winches2. Medium-duty direct pull and traction winches3. Heavy-duty traction winches (JASON winch)4. Mooring recovery winches5. Specialized handling systems such as GEO Traces and Long Core6. Portable cable spoolersThese winches and handling systems support a wide variety missions on all UNOLS vessels. The UNOLS East Coast Winch Pool, and corresponding West Coast Winch Pool at Scripps, will also serve to ensure that the equipment meets current UNOLS standards, provides commonality of design, and provides proper maintenance, administrative and logistical support to the academic fleet and the science community at large.Broader Impacts: The PI addressed the Broader Impact and Intellectual Merit of the proposed UNOLS East Coast Winch Pool. The shared-use equipment purchased, and the administrative structure established to support the equipment, will provide improved services to both the vessel operators and the scientific community. The Winch Pool structure will also ensure proper maintenance of equipment, commonality of design, compliance with current standards, and efficiencies to NSF with regard to logistics, tracking and oversight of certain shared-use assets. The research projects supported have been individually peer-reviewed for scientific merit. Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute participates in a large number of outreach programs including web broadcasts from vessel while at sea, open house events, and other initiatives such as ?Dive and Discover? with the submersible ALVIN.
