A request is made to fund Oceanographic Instrumentation for the R/V Hugh R Sharp, a 146-foot Regional research vessel operated by the University of Delaware as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. The R/V Hugh R Sharp is a state-of-the-art, coastal research vessel that is owned and operated by the University of Delaware. The vessel can carry fourteen to twenty scientists on cruises up to eighteen days in duration and supports projects from all disciplines of oceanography. The vessel is a regional asset, serving researchers from many institutions throughout the mid-Atlantic. The vessel typically operates in the coastal waters from Long Island, New York, to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, as well as the Delaware and Chesapeake Bays. Projects occasionally require the vessel to work as far north as the Gulf of Maine, as far south as Florida, and as far offshore as Bermuda. In 2018, the R/V Hugh R Sharp completed 143 days at sea. NSF funded projects accounted for 18 days or 15% of the sailing schedule. In 2019, R/V Hugh R Sharp is scheduled for 86 days with NSF days accounting for 21% (18 days) of the total sailing schedule. Oceanographic Instrumentation requested in this proposal includes:1) Big Eye Binoculars $40,480 Broader Impacts The principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the Proposal Guidelines (NSF 13-589). It provides 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.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.

请求为R/V Hugh R Sharp号海洋仪器提供经费，这是一艘146英尺长的区域研究船，由特拉华大学运营，是大学-国家海洋实验室系统(海洋实验室系统)研究船队的一部分。R/V Hugh R Sharp是一艘最先进的沿海考察船，由特拉华大学拥有和运营。这艘船可以搭载14到20名科学家进行长达18天的巡航，并支持来自海洋学所有学科的项目。这艘船是一项地区性资产，为大西洋中部许多机构的研究人员提供服务。这艘船通常在从纽约长岛到北卡罗来纳州哈特拉斯角以及特拉华州和切萨皮克湾的沿海水域作业。项目偶尔会要求这艘船在北至缅因湾、南至佛罗里达、远至近海至百慕大的海域作业。2018年，R/V休·R·夏普号完成了143天的海上航行。NSF资助的项目占航程的15%或18天。2019年，R/V Hugh R Sharp的航程为86天，其中NSF天数占总航程的21%(18天)。本提案中要求的海洋仪器包括：1)大眼睛双筒望远镜40,480美元更广泛的影响本提案的主要影响是根据提案指南(NSF 13-589)的功绩审查标准2。它为科学家提供基础设施支持，以使用该船及其共享仪器，以支持他们由NSF资助的海洋研究项目(这些项目单独接受NSF相关研究计划的单独审查)。共享仪器的获取、维护和操作允许美国国家科学基金会资助的任何美国大学或实验室的研究人员获得用于其研究的工作、校准的仪器，从而降低研究成本，并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
