The Multidisciplinary Instrumentation in Support of Oceanography (MISO) Facility at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) has provided routine access to deep-sea imaging, lighting, power and sensor instrumentation for over two decades. This capability to support US and international academic oceanography across many disciplines has included equipment used successfully on over 75 research cruises since 2002. A key component of MISO Facility support has been the design, development and implementation of robust deep-sea imaging capabilities that have been used on a wide array of deep-submergence vehicles (Alvin, PISCES, ROV Jason, AUV Sentry, ROV Hercules, ROV DR-2, ROV Sebastian, ROV Aegir6000), towed deep-sea imaging systems (i.e., the MISO TowCam system, seafloor time lapse systems developed by the MISO Facility, and seafloor sampling systems such as box corers and multicorers. The OI Program recommends funding to purchase the following components required to assemble autonomous, self-recording, high-resolution deep-sea camera systems:1) Six (6) Deep-Sea Power & Light DigiSeacam housings $73,8002) Two (2) Hero11 multi-camera module systems $11,0283) DSPL LED SeaLite 2050 deep-sea lights $11,6454) Subsea Cabling $7,000 Materials and Supplies $9,070 IDC $5,931 $118,474 Broader Impacts The 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.

伍兹霍尔海洋研究所（WHOI）的多学科仪器支持海洋学（MISO）设施为深海成像、照明、电力和传感器仪器提供了20多年的常规访问。这种能力支持美国和国际学术海洋学跨越许多学科，包括自2002年以来在超过75次研究巡航中成功使用的设备。MISO设施支持的一个关键组成部分是设计、开发和实施强大的深海成像能力，该能力已用于各种深潜器（Alvin， PISCES, ROV Jason, AUV Sentry, ROV Hercules, ROV DR-2, ROV Sebastian, ROV Aegir6000），拖曳式深海成像系统(即MISO TowCam系统，MISO设施开发的海底延时系统，以及海底采样系统，如盒盖和多芯器。OI计划建议资助购买以下组件，以组装自主，自记录，高分辨率深海摄像机系统：1)六(6)深海动力和照明DigiSeacam外壳$73,8002)两个(2)Hero11多相机模块系统$11,0283 DSPL LED SeaLite 2050深海灯$11,6454海底电缆$7,000材料和供应$9,070 IDC $5,931 $118,474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。
