A request is made to fund Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) on R/V Atlantis, a 274? general purpose research vessel, and R/V Armstrong, a new 238? multidisciplinary vessel. Both are operated by WHOI as part of the U.S. Academic Research Fleet (ARF) which is scheduled by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). Both are owned by the U.S. Navy, have state-of-the-art instrumentation and support all disciplines of oceanographic research. The vessels work in all the world?s oceans supporting science funded primarily by U.S government agencies. R/V Atlantis is specifically outfitted for launching and servicing Alvin, the human occupied submersible as well as other vehicles of the National Deep Submergence Facility (NDSF). In 2018, R/V Atlantis completed 305 days at sea. NSF funded projects accounted for 78% of the total sailing schedule (238 days). In 2019, Atlantis is scheduled for 283 days with NSF accounting for 239 of those or 85%. R/V Armstrong sailed 252 total days in 2018 and 133 of these, 52%, were for NSF. Additionally, 67 days (27%) were for NSF-OOI. The vessel is scheduled for 215 days in 2019, 21% of which (44 days) are for NSF and 37% (78 days) are for NSF OOI.SSSE requested in this proposal includes:Dynamic Positioning System - Atlantis $280,000Main Cranes Replacement - Atlantis $735,776Sheave Case for towing - Armstrong $26,000C Band Antenna Platform - Atlantis $110,440 $1,152,216Broader 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.

请求为 R/V Atlantis 274 上的舰载科学支持设备 (SSSE) 提供资金？通用研究船和 R/V Armstrong，新型 238？多学科船只。两者均由 WHOI 运营，作为美国学术研究舰队 (ARF) 的一部分，该舰队由大学国家海洋学实验室系统 (UNOLS) 安排。两者均属于美国海军，拥有最先进的仪器并支持海洋学研究的所有学科。 这些船只在世界各地的海洋中工作，支持主要由美国政府机构资助的科学研究。 R/V Atlantis 专门用于发射和维护载人潜水器 Alvin 以及国家深潜设施 (NDSF) 的其他潜水器。 2018年，亚特兰蒂斯号R/V在海上航行了305天。 NSF资助的项目占总航行日程（238天）的78%。 2019 年，亚特兰蒂斯计划停留 283 天，其中 NSF 占 239 天，占 85%。 R/V Armstrong 2018 年总共航行了 252 天，其中 133 天（52%）是为 NSF 航行的。此外，NSF-OOI 为 67 天 (27%)。该船计划在 2019 年服役 215 天，其中 21%（44 天）用于 NSF，37%（78 天）用于 NSF OOI。本提案中要求的 SSSE 包括：动态定位系统 - Atlantis $280,000 主起重机更换 - Atlantis $735,776 用于拖曳的滑轮箱 - Armstrong $26,000C 带状天线平台 -亚特兰蒂斯 $110,440 $1,152,216 更广泛的影响 本提案的主要影响符合提案指南 (NSF 13-589) 的绩效审查标准 2。它为科学家使用该船及其共享仪器提供基础设施支持，以支持其 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）。 共享仪器的采购、维护和操作使 NSF 资助的任何美国大学或实验室的研究人员都可以使用工作、校准的仪器进行研究，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。
