Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment, RV Blue Heron, 2013

该奖项用于资助蓝苍鹭房车上的科学支持设备，该房车由明尼苏达大学所有，由大湖观测站运营，并作为联合国难民事务高级专员办事处的一艘船运营。资金将用于按照联合国难民事务高级专员办事处RVSS附录B的要求，为我们的A型框架、起重机、甲板插座和01甲板、渔架和绞车编制最大容量文件(MCD)，并购买火灾探测系统和更换自动化信息系统。所有这些设备和文件将有助于确保蓝鹭号上更安全的工作条件，从而改善船舶所有用户的操作。受影响的资金来自于资助的MCDS、火灾探测系统、人工智能系统和化学品储物柜，这将加强明尼苏达大学S大学的研究和教育基础设施。这些物品和文件将提高船上的安全水平，确保NSF支持的项目安全及时地完成。该设备将安装在船上，因此所有蓝鹭S的用户都可以使用。

This award funds shipboard scientific support equipment on the RV Blue Heron, which is owned by the University of Minnesota and operated by the Large Lakes Observatory and operated as a UNOLS vessel. Funds will be used to develop maximum capacity documentation (MCDs) for our A-frame, crane, deck sockets and 01 deck, fishing gallows, and winches as per UNOLS RVSS Appendix B, and to purchase a fire detection system, and a replacement Automated Information System. All of this equipment and documentation will help ensure safer working conditions on board the Blue Heron thereby improving operations for all users of the ship.Broader Impacts result from the funded MCDs, fire detection system, AIS and chemical storage locker, which will enhance the University of Minnesota?s infrastructure for research and education. The items and documentation will increase the level of safety on board the vessel, ensuring that projects supported by NSF will be completed in a safe and timely manner. The equipment will be installed on the vessel and therefore will be available to all of the Blue Heron?s users.
