Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution proposes to take advantage of an off-the-shelf, commonly used Multicorer system developed by Ocean Instruments, Inc. (Model MC800) that is presently operated by at least six UNOLS operating institutions. This system would be integrated with WHOI-MISO deep-sea cameras, strobes, data transmission electronics, and basic water sampling and CTD capabilities to provide a more capable and comprehensive Multicorer capability for routine use on UNOLS vessels.The principal impact of the present proposal is under criterion two, providing infrastructure support for scientists to use the vessel and its shared-use instrumentation in support of their NSF-funded oceanographic research projects (which individually undergo separate review by the relevant research program of NSF). 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.

伍兹霍尔海洋研究所建议利用海洋仪器公司开发的现成的常用多芯取样器系统。（MC 800型），目前至少有六个联合国后勤支助处业务机构在操作。这一系统将与世界卫生组织-国际海洋观测组织的深海摄影机、频闪、数据传输电子设备以及基本的水取样和CTD能力相结合，以提供一种更有能力和更全面的多芯取样器能力，供联合国海洋法办事处船只日常使用。为科学家提供基础设施支持，以使用该船及其共享使用的仪器来支持他们的NSF-受资助的海洋学研究项目（由NSF的相关研究计划单独审查）。 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资助的研究人员使用工作、校准仪器进行研究，降低研究成本，并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。
