Requests are made by the University of Washington for Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) on R/V Thompson, a 274-foot general purpose, global class research vessel, and R/V Rachael Carson, a newly outfitted 72-foot coastal research vessel, both operated as part of the US Academic Research Fleet (ARF). In 2021, Thompson completed 296 funded days with 224 (76%) of them for NSF. For 2022, the vessel is scheduled for 283 total days with 241 (85%) days for NSF. Carson had 73 days in 2021 with 22 (30%) for NSF. For 2022, there are 131 days scheduled, 69 (53%) of which are for NSF.With this proposal, UW provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment:1) Uncontaminated Seawater System on R/V Rachel Carson $41,0002) (2) new CTD wire (0.322”) blocks for R/V Thomas G. Thompson $29,1453) Diaphragm Pump and spares for R/V Thomas G. Thompson $10,2074) Survey for EM2040 Multibeam System on R/V Rachel Carson $50,0005) Starboard Aft Main Deck Crane on R/V Thomas G. Thompson $252,500 $382,852Broader 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.

华盛顿大学提出了在R/V Thompson和R/V Rachel Carson上购买舰载科学支持设备(SSSE)的请求，R/V Thompson是一艘274英尺的全球级通用科考船，R/V是一艘新装备的72英尺长的沿海科考船，这两艘船都是作为美国学术研究舰队(ARF)的一部分运营的。2021年，汤普森完成了296天的资助，其中224天(76%)用于NSF。2022年，该船计划总共283天，其中241天(85%)为NSF。卡森在2021年有73天，其中22天(30%)在NSF。2022年，计划的天数为131天，其中69天(53%)用于NSF。1)R/V Rachel Carson上未受污染的海水系统$41,0002)(2)R/V Thomas G.Thompson上的新CTD导线(0.322“)块29,1453)R/V上的隔膜泵和备件Thomas G.Thompson$10,2074)R/V上EM2040多波束系统的勘测雷切尔·卡森$50,0005)R/V主甲板起重机上的右舷主甲板起重机$252,500$382,852,852‘本提案的主要影响是根据提案指南的Merit审查准则2(NSF 13-589)。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。
