Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) requests funds for oceanographic instrumentation 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 instrumentation will be maintained by the SIO ship operations department for use by NSF-supported scientists from institutions nationwide who require these seagoing facilities. Instrumentation is requested for RV Sally Ride, a 238-foot, Navy-owned vessel built in 2014. The vessel 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. With this proposal, SIO provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:1) Virtual Desktop Infrastructure R/V Sally Ride $178,1292) CTD Rosette and CTD Cart System R/V Sally Ride $90,4873) Acoustic Release System R/V Roger Revelle and R/V Sally Ride $46,730 $315,346Broader 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.

斯克里普斯海洋学研究所（SIO）要求为进行NSF支持的科学研究所需的海洋仪器提供资金。在大学-国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）的合作框架内工作，拟议的仪器将由SIO船舶运营部门维护，供全国需要这些海上设施的机构的NSF支持的科学家使用。RV Sally Ride是一艘238英尺长的海军船只，于2014年建造。该船在2019年完成了282个资助日，其中只有13个是NSF的。到2020年，该船计划运行254天，其中102天用于支持NSF资助的科学。通过本提案，SIO提供了技术说明和购买以下海洋仪器的理由：1）虚拟桌面基础设施R/V Sally Ride 178，1292美元）CTD Rosette和CTD推车系统R/V Sally Ride 90，4873美元）声学释放系统R/V Roger Revelle和R/V Sally Ride 46，730美元 315，346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。
