项目摘要

Biological Research Collections are important resources for understanding our changing planet. Researchers use specimens to describe new species, understand the relationships between taxa, explore the environment, and conserve our natural resources as well as to train the next generations of biologists. Collections in the Auburn University Museum of Natural History span plants and animals, with particularly strong holdings from the very diverse Gulf of Mexico coast region, and important collections from the rest of the world. Auburn University completed a new, state-of-the-art facility for their collections in 2013. Since moving to the new facility, the collections have seen remarkable growth, not just in terms of the number of specimens, but in the outreach that the museum is able to perform for people in the state and region. The museum absorbed collections from other university units and orphaned collections from other institutions in the area, putting strain on the space available. The collections stored in alcohol (fishes, amphibians, reptiles, and invertebrates) have grown at a particularly fast rate, and the alcohol storage area is limited because of needed safety measures for the proper storage of flammable liquids. This project will provide compactorized shelving that will dramatically increase the amount of space within the alcohol collections. Moving invertebrate specimens from an area not currently rated for storage in ethanol into the compactors will also allow growth of the dry collections (particularly insects), which are also approaching capacity. This project will demonstrate the complexity of managing collections and as an opportunity to teach a class in museum curation techniques to graduate students and upper level undergraduate students, and to further engage students to assist in the project. Open house events at the Wehle Center are planned to provide programs to underserved children in the area. Social media will be utilized to keep the public apprised of the project and the resources that the collections represent. Digitization of the collections will be completed, and all data will be available on the museum site (aumnh.org) as well as data aggregators such as iDigBio (idigbio.org).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
生物研究收藏是了解我们不断变化的星球的重要资源。 研究人员使用标本来描述新物种,了解分类群之间的关系,探索环境,保护我们的自然资源以及培养下一代生物学家。 奥本大学自然历史博物馆的藏品涵盖植物和动物,特别是来自墨西哥湾沿岸地区的丰富藏品,以及来自世界其他地区的重要藏品。 奥本大学在2013年完成了一个新的,最先进的设施,他们的收藏。 自从搬到新的设施,藏品已经看到了显着的增长,不仅在标本的数量方面,但在推广,博物馆能够为人民在国家和地区。 博物馆吸收了其他大学单位的收藏品,并从该地区的其他机构孤儿收藏品,使可用空间的压力。 储存在酒精中的收藏品(鱼类,两栖动物,爬行动物和无脊椎动物)以特别快的速度增长,酒精储存区域有限,因为需要采取安全措施来适当储存易燃液体。 该项目将提供自动化的货架,这将大大增加酒精收藏的空间。 将无脊椎动物标本从目前不适合在乙醇中储存的地区转移到压实机中也将使干燥标本(特别是昆虫)生长,这些标本也接近容量。 这个项目将展示管理收藏品的复杂性,并作为一个机会,教授博物馆策展技术类研究生和高水平的本科生,并进一步吸引学生协助该项目。 计划在Wehle中心举办开放日活动,为该地区服务不足的儿童提供节目。 将利用社交媒体让公众了解该项目以及藏品所代表的资源。 藏品的数字化将完成,所有数据将在博物馆网站(aumnh.org)以及iDigBio(idigbio.org)等数据聚合器上提供。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
