Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment for the R/V Savannah

2010年7月25日提案编号：1012818机构：斯基德韦海洋研究所PI：J.Sanders该提案要求为斯基德韦海洋研究所运营的R/V Savannah号配备几件船上科学支持设备(SSSE)，即便携式甲板捕获器、导航回声测深仪和拖网拖网。这些项目将提高安全性，使船只符合最新的UNLS标准，并增强科学支持能力。广泛影响：R/V Savannah支持联邦资助的东南大西洋科学研究，以扩大人类对海洋环境的了解。在运营期间，这艘船通常会让研究生和本科生接触海洋海洋学。通过由国家科学基金会和乔治亚州资助的开放参观活动和教育游轮活动，也实现了公共宣传。萨凡纳计划在2010年完成大约60天的NSF赞助活动。

ABSTRACT 25 July 2010Proposal Number: 1012818Institution: Skidaway Institute of OceanographyPI: J. SandersThe proposal requests several Shipboard Scientific Support Equipment (SSSE) items for the R/V SAVANNAH operated by Skidaway Institute of Oceanography; namely portable deck capstans, navigational echo sounders and trawl blocks. These items will improve safety, bring the vessel into compliance with latest UNOLS standards, and enhance science support capabilities.Broader Impacts: The R/V SAVANNAH supports federally funded scientific research in the southeast Atlantic in order to expand human knowledge of the ocean environment. During operations, the vessel routinely exposes graduate and undergraduate students to seagoing oceanography. Pubic outreach is also achieved through open house events and educational cruises funded by both NSF and the State of Georgia. The SAVANNAH is scheduled to complete approximately 60 NSF sponsored days in 2010.
