The College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University maintains the OSU/CEOAS Marine and Geology Repository (OSU-MGR) as an NSF-sponsored community facility. The mission is to archive and distribute geological samples, predominantly sediment cores, rocks, nodules and sediment trap samples, for scientific research and education. The repository was established in 1971 and since that time OSU-MGR has grown to curate four primary collections. (1) NSF’s Marine Geology Collection: Consisting of 15,196 m of marine sediments from 6,603 cores, 14,674 rock samples from 529 dredges, 568 rock samples from 61 dives (Alvin, ROV), 528 deep-sea manganese nodules, and 1,644 sediment trap samples. (2) NSF’s Antarctic core collection: Consisting of 16,187 m of marine sediments from 7,352 cores and 7,993 m of drill core from 92 sites, including ANDRILL, CRP, CIROS, DVDP and others. (3) NOAA R/V Okeanos Explorer Dive Collection: Consisting of 365 rocks from 187 dives. And (4) various other core and rock collections, including 567 m of Pacific NW lake sediments and 8,061 m of terrestrial drill core from across Oregon. For almost 50 years these materials have been archived and described with continuous NSF funding, with more than 186,000 samples distributed over the past 29 years to scientists, educators, and museums throughout the United States and around the world. With more than 27,000 samples taken over the last grant period, the demand for repository samples remains high, and is a predictable component of today’s scientific need.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.

俄勒冈州州立大学的地球、海洋和大气科学学院维护着OSU/CEOAS海洋和地质储存库（OSU-MGR），作为NSF赞助的社区设施。该使命是将地质样品存档和分发，主要是沉积岩芯、岩石、结核和沉积物收集器样品，用于科学研究和教育。该仓库成立于1971年，从那时起，OSU-MGR已经发展到策展四个主要收藏品。(1)国家科学基金会的海洋地质学收藏品：包括从6 603个岩心中获得的15 196米海洋沉积物、从529个挖泥船中获得的14 674个岩石样品、从61次潜水（阿尔文，哥伦比亚）中获得的568个岩石样品、528个深海锰结核和1 644个沉积物捕获器样品。(2)NSF的南极岩心收集：包括来自7，352个岩心的16，187米海洋沉积物和来自92个地点的7，993米钻孔岩心，包括ANDRILL，CRP，CIROS，DVDP等。(3)NOAA R/V Okeanos Explorer Dive Collection：由187次潜水的365块岩石组成。以及（4）各种其他岩心和岩石收藏，包括567米的太平洋西北湖泊沉积物和8,061米的陆地钻探岩心，来自俄勒冈州。近50年来，这些材料一直在NSF的持续资助下存档和描述，在过去的29年里，超过186，000个样本分发给美国和世界各地的科学家，教育工作者和博物馆。在上一个资助期内，我们采集了27，000多个样本，对储存库样本的需求仍然很高，并且是当今科学需求的一个可预测的组成部分。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。
