Ship Operations

9623204永格伦1996年，哥伦比亚大学拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球天文台将操作莫里斯·尤因号科考船，以支持美国国家科学基金会赞助的研究。尤文号是一艘230英尺的通用科考船，具有专门的海洋地质和地球物理能力。这艘船由美国国家科学基金会所有，由Lamont-Doherty通过一份为期5年的租赁协议运营。尤文号能够在世界范围内作业，并将在1996年支持南太平洋和北大西洋的巡航。该船计划在1996年运行319天，其中315天用于支持NSF赞助的海洋地质和地球物理项目。这艘船是美国国家科学基金会用于支持海洋研究的船队的一部分。大多数海洋项目需要高度专业化的设备和船上船员的广泛支持。越来越多的研究项目需要设备，这些设备必须永久安装在船上，因此需要专门的船只。这些船只的运作方式与普通货船/渔船不同，因此NSF支持由全国各地的大学和研究机构运营的各种专门用于海洋研究的船只的运作。***

9623204 LJUNGGREN In 1996, Columbia University, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory will operate the research vessel MAURICE EWING in support of NSF-sponsored research. The EWING is a 230' general purpose research vessel with specialized capability in marine geology and geophysics. The vessel is owned by the National Science Foundation and operated by Lamont-Doherty through a 5-year charter agreement. The EWING is capable of operating world wide and will support cruises in the south Pacific Ocean and the north Atlantic Ocean in 1996. The ship is scheduled for 319 operational days in 1996, of which 315 are in support of NSF-sponsored marine geology and geophysics programs. This vessel is part of a fleet used by the National Science Foundation in support of oceanographic research. Most oceanographic projects require highly specialized equipment and extensive support from the ship's crew members. Increasingly research projects require equipment which must be permanently installed on the vessel, thus requiring specialized vessels. These vessels do not operate the same as general cargo/fishing vessels, therefore NSF supports the operation of a variety of vessels specifically dedicated to oceanographic research that are operated by universities and research institutes around the country. ***
