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 2022, Thompson completed 268 funded days with 176 (66%) of them for NSF. For 2023, the vessel is scheduled for 315 total days with 180 (57%) days for NSF. Carson had 125 days in 2022 with 53 (42%) for NSF. For 2023, there are 68 days scheduled, 27 (40%) 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) Liquid Nitrogen Generator for R/V Thomas G. Thompson $39,0992) (2) new ⅜” line general purpose winches for R/V Rachel Carson $127,6503) Science water still for R/V Thomas G. Thompson $19,453 $186,202Broader 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。2022年，汤普森完成了268天的资助，其中176天(66%)用于NSF。2023年，该船计划总共315天，其中180天(57%)为NSF。卡森在2022年有125天，其中53天(42%)在NSF。2023年，计划有68天，其中27天(40%)用于NSF。在这份提案中，UW提供了购买以下船上科学支持设备的技术说明和理由：1)用于R/V的液氮发生器Thomas G.Thompson$39,0992)(2)新⅜“用于R/V的生产线通用绞车Rachel Carson$127,6503)R/V的科学用水蒸馏器托马斯·G·汤普森$19,453$186,202布罗德影响本提案的主要影响是根据提案指南(NSF13-589)的功绩审查标准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。
