High Performance Internet Connections for Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

该提案寻求为先进的网络连接提供资金，以促进下列领域的研究和教育：海浪、海流和地形的实时观测；中尺度过程对北大西洋生物地球化学通量的影响；北冰洋的作用；地下气体流动的有机地球化学；以及地下传感和成像系统。此外，该奖项还将在胡安德富卡板块周围海底(俄勒冈州和华盛顿州近海)的10千兆位每秒网络、玛莎葡萄园岛海岸观测站以及宽带环境地震噪声的时间和空间相关性等领域开展新的项目。

This proposal seeks funding for an advanced network connection in order to facilitate research and education in the areas of real-time surfzone wave, current and morphology observations, impacts of mesoscale processes on biogeochemical fluxes in the North Atlantic, topics in the role of the Arctic Ocean, organic geochemistry of subsurface gas flow, and subsurface sensing and imaging systems. In addition, this award will enable new projects in the areas of a 10 Gigabit per second network on the seafloor around the Juan de Fuca plate (offshore Oregon and Washington), a Martha's Vineyard Coastal Observatory, and the temporal and spatial dependence of broadband ambient seismic noise.
