Acquisition of a Sensitive and Cost-Effective 2G Enterprises 755R Superconducting Rock Magnetometer System for Paleomagnetic and Rock-Magnetic Studies

9909577金此赠款提供部分支持，用于为罗得岛大学海洋学研究生院的古地磁实验室购买2-G企业755 R超导岩石磁力仪系统（SRM）。 增加一个配备自动U型通道进样系统的SRM将能够对弱磁化沉积物岩心和样品进行快速、高分辨率的分析。 它将主要用于研究全球气候变化和地球磁场行为的时间变化。 将强调需要对许多样品进行快速分析的钻井和取芯程序。 磁力计将与大型接入2-G企业SRM一起沿着放置在大型屏蔽室中。 URI古地磁学实验室将作为成本回收中心运营，并将开放供其他机构的研究人员和学生进行合作研究。 该补助金由地球科学仪器和设施计划（ESTA/IF），海洋科学司，海洋地质和地球物理计划（OCE/MGG），大洋钻探计划（OCE/ODP）和大气科学，古气候学计划（ATM/PC）共享。

9909577KingThis grant provides partial support for the acquisition of a 2-G Enterprises 755R superconducting rock magnetometer system (SRM) for the Paleomagnetics Laboratory at the University of Rhode Island - Graduate School of Oceanography. The addition of a SRM equipped with an automated u-channel sample introduction system will allow rapid, high-resolution analysis of weakly magnetized sediment cores and samples. It will primarily be used for studies of global climate change and of the temporal variation in the behavior of the Earth's magnetic field. Drilling and coring programs that require rapid analysis of many samples will be emphasized. The magnetometer will be housed in a large shielded room along with a large access 2-G Enterprises SRM. The URI Paleomagnetics Laboratory will be operated as a cost recovery center and will be open for collaborative studies by researchers and students from other institutions. Support for this grant is shared between the Earth Sciences Instrumentation and Facilities Program (EAR/IF), the Division of Ocean Sciences, Marine Geology and Geophysics Program (OCE/MGG), Ocean Drilling Program (OCE/ODP) and the Atmospheric Sciences, Paleoclimatology Program (ATM/PC).***
