FSML: Improvements in Trace Element Analytical Facilities at Moss Landing Marine Labs

该项目将升级莫斯兰丁海洋实验室的痕量金属实验室的仪器。 MLML的痕量金属实验室一直是研究金属在大空间和时间尺度上调节海洋初级生产的作用的世界领导者。 Moss Landing的科学家在开发水生系统中微量元素的新分析方法方面发挥了重要作用。 它们还发挥了关键作用，使淡水化学家意识到，在以前的测量淡水系统中的金属有重大的方法错误。 因此，MLML已成为培训和开发痕量化学分析方法的重要中心。 在过去的5年中，6名研究生已经完成了MS学位与痕量金属实验室的工作人员和仪器。 此外，还有一些来自美国和海外的访客参观了实验室。

This project will upgrade instrumentation in the Trace Metals Laboratory at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories. The Trace Metals Lab of MLML has been a world leader in studies of the role of metals in regulating primary production in the ocean over large spatial and temporal scales. Moss Landing scientists have played a major part in developing new analytical methods for trace elements in aquatic systems. They have also played a key role in making freshwater chemists aware that there are significant methodological errors in previous measurements of metals in freshwater systems. As a result, MLML has served as an important center for training and development of analytical methods for trace chemical analysis. In the past 5 years,6 graduate students have finished MS degrees working with Trace Metals Lab staff and instrumentation. In addition, there have been a number of visitors to the lab from the US and overseas.
