Continued Curation of the Marine Geology and Geophysics Collection in the OSU/CEOAS Marine and Geology Repository

该项目支持俄勒冈州立大学海洋和地质库的运作。收集的样品包括超过25,000个沉积物岩芯、岩石、深海结核和沉积物捕集器样品。这些收藏的样本被分发给美国和世界各地的科学家、教育工作者和博物馆。更广泛的影响包括为本科生提供实习机会，以及针对不同年龄段(K-12岁、本科生、研究生、公众)的教育项目和旅游。俄勒冈州立大学地球、海洋和大气科学学院于1971年建立了海洋和地质资料库(OSU-MGR)，作为NSF赞助的社区设施。该项目支持美国国家科学基金会的海洋地质收藏，包括来自近7000个岩心的约16,000米海洋沉积物、来自近600个挖泥船的15,500个岩石样本、来自61个潜水点(Alvin，ROV)的570个岩石样本、528个深海锰结核和1650个沉积物圈闭样本。通过在连续制冷下对岩石和沉积物进行高质量的存档，这些独一无二的材料被保存下来供科学界使用。50多年来，海洋科学研究所的使命一直是存档和分发地质样品和相关的元数据，主要是沉积物岩心、岩石、结核和沉积物捕集器样品，用于科学研究和教育。在过去的30年里，超过19万个样本被分发给了美国和世界各地的科学家、教育工作者和博物馆。其中33%来自超过5年的岩心/挖泥船，75%流向非OSU调查人员。在过去的7年里，超过32,500个样本被采集，需求仍然很高。长期目标包括：1)继续改善对社区的服务，包括虚拟能力、数据获取和远程采样。2)收集、捕获和提供来自船上和储存库来源的非破坏性数据。3)通过在研究生、本科生、K-12班、REU项目、暑期学校和雇用来自不同背景的本科生工作者，以及通过向公众开放该设施以供参观、开放参观和演讲来支持教学、培训和学习。产品将通过OSU-MGR网站和国家数据库进行传播。通过将数据链接到包括DOI、ORCID、IGSN和R2R考察队ID在内的唯一标识符，在线数据存储库将变得可公平查找、可访问、可互操作、可重现。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This project supports the operation of the Marine and Geology Repository at Oregon State University. The collection includes more than 25,000 sediment cores, rocks, deep sea nodules, and sediment trap samples. Samples from the collection are distributed to scientists, educators, and museums throughout the United States and around the world. Broader impacts include internships for undergraduate students and educational programs and tours targeting a wide age range (K-12, undergraduate, graduate, public). The College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University established the Marine and Geology Repository (OSU-MGR) in 1971 as an NSF-sponsored community facility. This project supports NSF’s Marine Geology Collection consisting of approximately 16,000 m of marine sediments from almost 7000 cores, 15,500 rock samples from almost 600 dredges, 570 rock samples from 61 dives (Alvin, ROV), 528 deep-sea manganese nodules, and 1650 sediment trap samples. Through high quality archiving of rocks and sediment under continuous refrigeration, these one-of-a-kind materials are preserved for the scientific community. For more than 50 years the mission of the OSU-MGR has remained, to archive and distribute geological samples and associated meta data, predominantly sediment cores, rocks, nodules and sediment trap samples, for scientific research and education. Over the past 30 years, more than 190,000 samples have been distributed to scientists, educators, and museums throughout the United States and around the world. 33% of these are from cores/dredges that are more than 5 years old and 75% go to non-OSU investigators. With more than 32,500 samples taken over the last 7 years the demand remains high. Long-term goals include: 1) To continue to improve services to the community, including virtual capabilities, data acquisition, and remote sampling. 2) To collect, capture, and serve non-destructive data from both shipboard and repository sources. 3) Support teaching, training, and learning through use of the OSU-MGR repository in graduate, undergraduate, K-12 classes, REU programs, summer schools, and employing undergraduate student workers from diverse backgrounds, as well as by opening the facility to the public for tours, open houses, and presentations. Products will be disseminated through the OSU-MGR website and national databases. The online data repository will be made FAIR—Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reproducible—by linking data to unique identifiers including DOI, ORCID, IGSN, and R2R Expedition IDs.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.
