Partnering Agreement between NSF/OPP and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada to Provide Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) Vessel Support for Arctic Research.

NSF/OPP与加拿大渔业和海洋部之间建立了一项合作协议，以支持使用一艘加拿大海岸警卫队(CCG)船只，以支持海洋科学司资助的一个研究项目。美国国家科学基金会的相关奖项授予蒙特利湾水族馆研究所的查尔斯·保尔博士，奖项#OCE01-17661。OCE和OPP共同支持对该奖项的审查和建议，OPP支持发货时间。在请求的年份(2002年)，美国破冰船上没有时间，因此OPP请求加拿大渔业和海洋部提供支持，后者负责协调加拿大海岸警卫队破冰船资产的科学使用。该项目于2003年9月实施，涉及两艘船作业和一个在麦肯齐河三角洲附近加拿大水域工作的国际研究小组。

A Partnering Agreement between NSF/OPP and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada is established to support the use of a Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) vessel in support of a research project funded by the Division of Ocean Sciences. The relevant NSF award is to Dr. Charles Paull of Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, award # OCE 01-17661. OCE and OPP jointly supported the review and recommendation of the award, with OPP supporting the ship time. Time on a US Ice breaker was not available in the requested year (2002) so OPP requested support from Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans who coordinate the science use of Canadian Coast Guard Ice Breaker assets. The project was carried out in September of 2003 involving a two-ship operation and an international research team working in Canadian waters off the Mackenzie River Delta.
