This $136,676.00 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences under CFDA Program 47.050 - Geosciences. The funding will support the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) in acquiring oceanographic instrumentation needed to conduct NSF-supported scientific research aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer, a research vessel operated as part of the U.S. Academic Research Fleet. Specifically, the award will fund the purchase of an electric deck spooler/tensioner for mooring operations, a snatch block for science operations, and a 3D printer to produce custom replacement components. These instruments will help ensure the vessel maintains its high-level capabilities to support NSF-funded oceanographic research projects. The award has been deemed worthy of support through the NSF's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria, as it will provide critical infrastructure to enable high-quality data collection and expand the base of potential researchers who can access the shared-use instrumentation.
