Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment Caley Upgrade

摘要：2012年7月9日提案编号：1219288机构：特拉华大学pi: W. ByamCo-PI:[无]本提案为R/V HUGH R. SHARP申请一项为特拉华大学提供的舰载科学支持设备项目；即对现有CTD处理系统的控制系统进行升级。该奖项代表了一个多年项目的第一阶段，该项目最终将支持夏威夷大学的KILO MOANA系统的类似系统升级。该项目将大大提高两艘船的安全和科学保障能力。更广泛的影响和知识价值：该项目专门针对休·R·夏普公司提出的设备的更广泛的影响和知识价值。所支持的研究项目已单独进行了科学价值同行评议。在作业期间，这些船只经常让研究生和本科生接触到海上海洋学。具体而言，海洋与地球研究学院参与了大量的外展项目，包括开放日活动（海岸日）、参与MATE项目和教育游轮。学院还举办联索特派团东海岸培训班。R/V HUGH R. SHARP计划在2012年支持超过90个nsf资助的日子。

ABSTRACT 09 July 2012Proposal Number: 1219288Institution: University of DelawarePI: W. ByamCo-PI: [None]This proposal requests one Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment item for the University of Delaware for the R/V HUGH R. SHARP; namely control system up-grades for the existing CTD Handling System. This award represents Phase I of a multi-year project award that will eventually support similar system up-grades on the University of Hawaii's KILO MOANA. This project will greatly enhance safety and science support capabilities on both vessels. Broader Impact and Intellectual Merit: The PI addressed the Broader Impact and Intellectual Merit of the proposed equipment specifically for the R/V HUGH R. SHARP. The research projects supported have been individually peer-reviewed for scientific merit. During operations, these vessels routinely expose graduate and undergraduate students to seagoing oceanography. Specifically, College of Marine and Earth Studies participates in a large number of outreach programs including open house events (Coast Day), participation the MATE program, and educational cruises. The College also hosts the UNOLS East Coast Van Pool. The R/V HUGH R. SHARP is scheduled to support over 90 NSF-funded days in CY 2012.
