Oceanographic Instrumentation: R/V Cape Hatteras June 2009

这项奖励是根据2009年《美国复苏和再投资法》(公法111-5)资助的。申请资助R/V好望角研究船的额外和后备仪器，这是一艘136英尺长的研究船，由国家科学基金会拥有，由杜克大学/北卡罗来纳大学海洋联盟运营，作为大学-国家海洋实验室系统研究船队的一部分。对Ku波段天线的请求被拒绝了，因为该计划正朝着与舰队范围通信不同的方向发展。该奖项包括一个项目：1)超纯水系统断路器的影响：共享使用仪器的获取、维护和操作允许任何美国大学或实验室的NSF资助的研究人员使用工作的、校准的仪器进行研究，降低了研究成本，并扩大了潜在研究人员的基础。

This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).A request is made to fund additional and back-up instrumentation for the R/V Cape Hatteras, a 136-ft long research vessel owned by the National Science Foundation and operated by the Duke/UNC Oceanographic Consortium as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. The request for a Ku-Band antennea was declined becaause the Program is going a different directions with fleet-wide communications. The award includes one item:1) Ultra Pure Water SystemBroader Impacts: The acquisition, maintenance and operation of shared-use instrumentation allows NSF-funded researchers from any US university or lab access to working, calibrated instruments for their research, reducing the cost of that research, and expanding the base of potential researchers.
