Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) requests funds for Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) that is needed to carry out NSF-supported scientific research. Working within the collaborative framework of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS), the proposed equipment will be maintained by the SIO ship operations department for use by NSF-supported scientists from institutions nationwide who require these seagoing facilities. Equipment is requested for the three vessels operated by SIO: RV Sally Ride, a 238-foot, Navy-owned vessel built in 2014, RV Sproul, a 125-foot state-owned vessel and RV Roger Revelle, a 273-foot, Navy-owned vessel. Sally Ride completed 282 funded days in 2019, only 13 of which were for NSF. In 2020, the ship is scheduled for 254 days with 102 of them in support of NSF-funded science. Sproul completed 90 days in 2019, 6 of which were for NSF. In 2020, the vessel is scheduled for 81 total days with 2 of them for NSF. Revelle is currently in mid-life refit but completed 85 days in 2019, 72 of which were for NSF. In 2020, she is scheduled to sail 177 days with 98 of those for NSF. With this proposal, SIO provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following SSSE:1) Wide-throat block R/V Robert Gordon Sproul $26,0142) Trawl winch level wind R/V Robert Gordon Sproul $127,0133) Flagging block sheave tread R/V Roger Revelle $13,0414) Flagging block sheave tread R/V Sally Ride $13,0415) Replacement portable crane for R/V Roger Revelle $222,760 $401,869Broader 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.

斯克里普斯海洋研究所(SIO)要求为开展NSF支持的科学研究所需的船上科学支持设备(SSSE)提供资金。在大学-国家海洋学实验室系统(UNLS)的协作框架内，拟议的设备将由SIO船舶运行部维护，供来自全国各地需要这些海洋设施的机构的NSF支持的科学家使用。SIO运营的三艘船需要设备：2014年建造的238英尺海军拥有的RV Sally Ride，125英尺的国有RV Sproul和273英尺的海军拥有的RV Roger Revelle。Sally Ride在2019年完成了282天的资助，其中只有13天是为NSF提供的。2020年，这艘船计划飞行254天，其中102天用于支持NSF资助的科学。Sproul在2019年完成了90天，其中6天是为NSF提供的。2020年，该船计划总共81天，其中2天将前往NSF。Revelle目前正在进行中年改装，但在2019年完成了85天的改装，其中72天是为NSF进行的。2020年，她计划航行177天，其中98天是为NSF航行的。根据这项建议，SIO为收购以下SSSE提供了技术说明和理由：1)宽喉滑轮R/V Robert Gordon Sproul$26,0142)拖网绞车水平风R/V Robert Gordon Sproul$127,0133)旗帜滑轮踏面R/V Roger Revelle$13,0414)旗帜滑轮踏面R/V Sally Ride$13,0415)更换R/V Roger Revelle$222,760$401,869 Broader Impact本提案的主要影响是根据建议书指南(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。
