This proposal requests funds for Oceanographic Instrumentation for R/V Pelican, a 116-foot, general purpose research vessel operated by the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium (LUMCON) as part of the US Academic Research Fleet. The vessel has averaged 156 days at sea over the last five years. There are currently 173 days scheduled in 2022, 100 (58%) of which are for NSF.With this proposal, LUMCON provides technical descriptions and rationale for the acquisition of the following Oceanographic Instrumentation:Pacific RO 20 L/hr Reverse Osmosis System $9,801WET Labs ECO-FLNTU-RTD Fluorometer/Turbidity Sensors $13,902Suite of Spare CTD Sensors $281,478 $305,181 Broader 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.

该提案要求为R/V派力肯的海洋仪器提供资金，这是一艘116英尺长的通用研究船，由路易斯安那大学海洋联合会（LUMCON）运营，是美国学术研究船队的一部分。在过去五年中，该船平均在海上航行156天。目前计划在2022年有173天，其中100天（58%）是NSF。通过此提案，LUMCON提供了技术说明和收购以下海洋仪器的理由：太平洋RO 20 L/hr反渗透系统9，801美元WET Labs ECO-FLNTU-RTD荧光计/湍流传感器13，902美元备用CTD传感器套件281，478美元 305，181美元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。
