Operation and Management of the LDEO Instrument Center of the National Ocean Seismometer Pool

在离开美国海底地震仪仪器库（OBSIP）一年后，Lamont-Doherty地球观测站将带着新的管理、服务导向的模式、更新的测试和验证程序，以及对其约43个宽带传感器的改进，重新加入OBSIP。在新的领导下，Lamont-Doherty地球观测机构仪器中心（IIC）将加入斯克里普斯海洋研究所和伍兹霍尔海洋研究所，成为美国国家科学基金会资助的大多数主动和被动海洋地震实验的三个OBS提供者之一。在作为OBSIP的新成员参加他们的第一个实地实验之前，研究人员将进行一个详尽的测试计划，并建立程序，以确保在巡航完成后可以迅速将高质量数据提供给科学家。拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球观测站预计将于2008年全面投入使用。这些OBS的可用性将对科学界产生立竿见影的积极影响，科学界现在必须等待长达5年的时间才能完成宽带传感器的资助项目。另一个重要的更广泛的影响是IIC的监督和日常设施运营方面的博士学位的参与。

After a year-long absence from the U.S. Ocean Bottom Seismometer Instrument Pool (OBSIP), Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory will rejoin OBSIP with new management, a service-oriented model, a renewed testing and verification program, and improvements to their ~43 broadband sensors. Under new leadership, the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory Institutional Instrument Center (IIC) will join Scripps Institute of Oceanography and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as one of the 3 providers of OBS for the majority of NSF-sponsored, active and passive marine seismic experiments. Prior to participating in their first field experiment as a new member of OBSIP, the researchers will undertake an exhaustive testing program and establish procedures to ensure the availability of high-quality data that can be delivered to scientists rapidly after the completion of cruises. The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory IIC expects to be fully operational by 2008. The availability of these OBS will have an immediate, positive impact on the scientific community, which must now wait up to 5 years for broadband sensors to complete funded programs. Another important broader impact is the involvement of a relatively recent Ph.D. in oversight and daily facility operations for the IIC.
