Description (provided by applicant): The Environment Facility Core will provide detailed physical/chemical/biological data to inform research conducted in the Toxic Algae Research Project, the Shellfish Kinetics Research Project and the Human Exposure Research Project. Expertise in mounting biological sensors to in situ moorings will be shared with the Biosensors Facility Core to support their goal of developing a buoy-mounted domoic acid sensor. All environmental data will be relayed to Center participants through the Informatics Facility Core. The Environment Facility Core has the following specific aims: 1) To use moored sensors to provide a continuous record of physical, chemical, and biological parameters in our two areas of interest, Puget Sound and coastal Washington. 2) To provide the Toxic Algae Research Project and the Shellfish Kinetics Research Project with phytoplankton and shellfish samples from sites in Puget Sound and along the coast. 3) To use historical data on past environmental conditions in the context of Pseudo-nitzschia abundance and toxic outbreaks to develop predictive models of bloom dynamics. To accomplish these aims, Center funds will help support maintenance of the moorings and data analysis. The investigators will also initiate intensive sampling programs to supplement already established programs (through the Department of Ecology and NWFSC).

说明（由申请者提供）：环境基金核心将提供详细的 在有毒藻类研究项目、贝类动力学研究项目和人类接触研究项目中开展的研究所需的物理/化学/生物数据。将与生物传感器设施核心分享将生物传感器安装到原位系泊装置的专业知识，以支持他们开发安装在锚上的软骨藻酸传感器的目标。所有环境数据将通过信息设施核心转发给中心参与者。 环境基金核心有以下具体目标：1）使用系泊传感器提供我们感兴趣的两个地区，普吉湾和沿海华盛顿的物理，化学和生物参数的连续记录。2)为有毒藻类研究项目和贝类动力学研究项目提供普吉湾和沿着地点的浮游植物和贝类样本。3)利用历史数据过去的环境条件下的背景下，伪菱形丰度和有毒爆发，开发预测模型的水华动态。为了实现这些目标，中心的资金将帮助支持系泊系统的维护和数据分析。调查人员还将启动密集采样计划，以补充已经建立的计划（通过生态部和NWFSC）。
