A request is made to fund new instrumentation for the R/V Walton Smith, a 96,’ general purpose regional vessel operated and owned by the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (RSMAS) as part of the US Academic Fleet. These vessels are scheduled by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). R/V Walton Smith conducts a substantial portion of her operations in the near shore waters of South Florida and the Gulf of Mexico, providing scientific information relevant to major environmental initiatives. R/V Walton Smith completed 35 days in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. In 2021, the vessel is scheduled to sail 105 days with 33% (35 days) of the schedule for NSF. With this proposal, Miami provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation: Applanix POS MV OceanMasterBroader ImpactsThe principal impact of the present proposal is under Merit Review Criterion 2 of the Proposal Guidelines (NSF 19-602). 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.

作为美国学术舰队的一部分，由迈阿密大学罗森斯蒂尔海洋与大气科学学院（RSMAS）运营和拥有的一艘1996年通用区域船R/V Walton Smith提出了为其提供新仪器的申请。这些船只是由大学-国家海洋实验室系统（UNOLS）安排的。R/V沃尔顿史密斯在南佛罗里达和墨西哥湾的近岸水域开展了相当一部分业务，提供与主要环境倡议有关的科学信息。R/V Walton Smith在疫情缩短的2020赛季完成了35天。2021年，该船计划航行105天，其中33%（35天）用于NSF。在此提案中，迈阿密公司提供了以下海洋仪器采购的技术描述和基本原理：Applanix POS MV oceanmaster更广泛的影响本提案的主要影响是根据提案指南（NSF 19-602）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国家科学基金会资助的海洋学研究项目（这些项目单独接受国家科学基金会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任何美国大学或实验室的nsf资助的研究人员为他们的研究访问工作、校准仪器，降低研究成本，并扩大潜在研究人员的基础。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
