UNOLS Office 2019-2023

大学-国家海洋学实验室系统（UNOLS）是一个由66个学术机构组成的联盟，拥有海洋科学的研究和教育项目，并致力于支持这些项目的主要共享设施。联索特派团的基础设施由无数资产组成，包括船舶和深潜车辆、飞机和主要仪器仪表。机构或联邦机构拥有这些设施，社区通过联卢行动系统可以使用这些设施。联合国海洋和大气行动办公室传统上由六个联邦机构提供支持：国家科学基金会/海洋科学司和极地方案司、海军部/海军研究办公室（ONR）、国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）、内政部/美国美国地质调查局（USGS），海洋能源管理局（BOEM）和美国海岸警卫队（USCG）。这项建议是由华盛顿大学主办联苏行动办事处，最初任期为五年，从2019年至2023年。在联卢行动办事处的指导和领导下，许多工作是通过在常设委员会任职的科学界志愿人员完成的。联索行动成立于1971年，在协调和改进国家行动方面发挥了重要作用。学术研究舰队。unools的一个重要重点领域是协调和安排这些国家资产，规划未来，并能够确定和满足美国海洋学研究科学家、学生和技术人员的科学基础设施要求。这使美国能够在科学、教育和公众对自然环境的认识方面取得进步。联卢行动办事处通过广泛的社区参与履行的一项关键职能是协助在现有预算范围内确定资源的优先次序，以确保海洋学领域的发展。正是通过联卢行动的努力，该办事处才能够协助国家科学基金会和其他联邦机构就美国海洋学研究的未来方向提供社区反馈和投入。联苏办通过各种会议、讲习班、报告、研究和日常交流，为支持这项研究的机构与所服务的科学界之间的公开对话提供了渠道。NSF的使命是“促进科学进步；促进国家的健康、繁荣和福利；确保国防安全"都得益于联卢行动办事处汇集科学思想，确定需要回答的科学问题，然后为开展这项重要工作提供安全平台的能力。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) is a consortium of sixty-six academic institutions with research and educational programs in the ocean sciences and dedication to the major shared-use facilities that support these programs. UNOLS Infrastructure is composed of a myriad of assets including ships and deep submergence vehichles, aircraft, and major instrumentation. Institutions or federal agencies own these facilities and it is through the UNOLS system that the community has access to them. Support for the UNOLS Office is traditionally provided by six Federal Agencies: National Science Foundation/Division of Ocean Sciences and Division of Polar Programs, Department of the Navy/Office of Naval Research (ONR), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Department of the Interior/U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG).This proposal is for the University Washington to host the UNOLS Office for an initial term of five years from 2019 to 2023. Under the guidance and leadership of the UNOLS Office, much of the work is done through the volunteers from the scientific community who serve on standing committees. The UNOLS organization, founded in 1971, has played an important role in coordinating and improving the operations of the nation?s Academic Research Fleet. One of the important focus areas for UNOLS is to coordinate and schedule these national assets, to plan for the future, and to be able to identify and meet the scientific infrastructure requirements of the U.S. oceanographic research scientists, students and technicians. This enables the United States to make advances in science, education, and the public awareness of our natural environment. One of the critical functions that the UNOLS Office performs, through broad community involvement, is to assist in prioritizing the resources within the available budgets to ensure the advancement of the field of oceanography. It is through the UNOLS efforts that the office is able to assist the National Science Foundation and other federal agencies with providing community feedback and input on the future direction of oceanographic research in the United States. Through the various UNOLS meetings, workshops, reports, studies, and daily communication, UNOLS provides a conduit for open dialog between the agencies supporting this research and the scientific community being served. The NSF's mission to "promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense" are all aided by the UNOLS Office's ability to bring together the scientific minds to identify what are the science questions that need to be answered, and then to provide the safe platforms to conduct this important work.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
