All four of these research vessels are operated by the university as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System research fleet. Specific instrumentation to be acquired includes an acoustic current profiler for R/V New Horizon, a magnetometer, two portable liquid scintillation counters, a freezer for sample storage, two fluorometers, a rosette system for 30-liter sampling bottles with the CTD system, and a data acquisition system for seismic reflection profiling. The shared-use instrumentation supported here will assist marine scientists conduct studies worldwide on SIO and other research vessels during 2003 and future years.***
