FSML: Improving the Chemistry Laboratory Capabilities at the University of Wisconsin Trout Lake Station

威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校获得了一笔赠款，用于升级Trout Lake Station的分析能力，这是一个由威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校湖湖学中心运营的全年生物野外站点，用于水化学和放射性同位素分析，方法是购买一台气相色谱仪和一个液体闪烁计数器。过去十年的发现在很大程度上改变了我们对湖泊景观碳循环和温室气体排放的看法。根据该奖项提供的设备将有助于生物地球化学、食物网动力学和微生物生态学的研究，从而了解淡水系统在景观碳循环中的作用。该空间站位于威斯康星州北部的北高地湖区，提供各种水生生态系统及其周围景观的通道。超过2500个湖泊位于空间站50公里范围内。该站在水生研究方面有着悠久的历史，到目前为止已经出版了1000多份出版物，在过去五年中有166份同行评议的出版物和21篇研究生论文。除了促进研究，鲑鱼湖站还经常用于中西部大学的本科生和研究生的实地考察。

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is awarded a grant to upgrade the analytical capacity of the Trout Lake Station, a year-round biological field station operated by the Center for Limnology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, with respect to water chemistry and radioisotope analysis by acquiring a gas chromatograph and a liquid scintillation counter. Discoveries of the past decade have substantially changed our views of lakes in landscape carbon cycles and fluxes of greenhouse gases. The equipment provided under this award will contribute to research in biogeochemistry, food web dynamics and microbial ecology leading to an understanding the roles of freshwater systems in landscape carbon cycles. Located in the Northern Highland Lake District in northern Wisconsin, the station provides access to a wide variety of aquatic ecosystems and their surrounding landscapes. More than 2500 lakes are within 50km of the station. The station has a long history of aquatic research that has produced over 1000 publications to date, with 166 peer-reviewed publications and 21 graduate student theses in the past five years. In addition to fostering research, the Trout Lake Station is used regularly for field trips by undergraduate and graduate courses from universities throughout the Midwest.
