Scripps Institution of Oceanography - Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment

请求为R/V Roger Revelle（273？全球通用船舶。该船由海军拥有，由斯克里普斯海洋学研究所运营，是美国学术研究舰队（ARF）的一部分。这艘船支持全世界的多学科海洋学研究？的海洋盆地。2018年，REVELLE完成了262天，其中181天（69%）是NSF。在2019年，Revelle目前计划有86天，其中72天（84%）是NSF。之所以有这么少的日子是，雷维尔计划花一年的大部分时间在干船坞进行中年改装。此处建议的大部分设备将在此期间安装。优先SSSE要求包括以下内容：科学制冷机械197，492美元对讲机拨号电话411，854美元公共广播系统239，030美元宽喉滑轮121，069美元降低甲板上的风扇噪音143，109美元工作船舷外发动机16，240美元 1，128，794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）的优点审查标准2。它为科学家提供基础设施支持，以使用该船及其共享使用的仪器来支持他们的NSF资助的海洋学研究项目（这些项目单独接受NSF相关研究计划的单独审查）。 共享使用仪器的获取、维护和操作允许来自美国任何大学或实验室的NSF资助的研究人员使用工作、校准的仪器进行研究，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。

A request is made to fund Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) for R/V Roger Revelle, a 273? general purpose Global vessel. The ship is owned by Navy and operated by Scripps Institution of Oceanography as part of the US Academic Research Fleet (ARF). The ship supports multidisciplinary oceanographic research in all the world?s ocean basins. In 2018, REVELLE completed 262 days, 181 (69%) of which were for NSF. In 2019, Revelle is currently scheduled with 86 days, 72 (84%) of which are for NSF. The reason there are so few days is that Revelle plans to spend most of the year in drydock undergoing a mid-life refit. Much of the equipment proposed here would be installed during this period.The prioritized SSSE request includes the following:Science refrigeration machinery $197,492Intercom & dial telephone $411,854Public address system $239,030Wide throat sheaves $121,069Reduce fan noise on deck $143,109Work boat outboard engines $16,240 $1,128,794Broader ImpactsThe 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.
