主要研究 今天

澳门葡京网赌游戏(University of new Hampshire)的科学家们即将建造一艘新的远洋研究船，这艘船将扩大他们追踪洋流的能力, 进行海底研究，研究食物网动态和鱼类洄游.

“With access to this new state-of-the-art research vessel, 联合国大学的科学家将有前所未有的机会参与一系列重要的沿海和深海研究实验.”

的 National Science Foundation (NSF)选取了 East Coast Oceanographic Consortium 操作一艘即将到来的科考船，为科学家研究和探索大西洋及邻近海域提供尖端技术. 的 consortium is led by the University of Rhode Island’s 研究生院 of Oceanography in collaboration with 主要研究 and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, along with 16 associate members.

“This is particularly exciting news for the new School of Marine Science and Ocean Engineering at 主要研究,” says Larry Mayer, director of the school. “作为东海岸海洋学协会的一员，我可以使用这艘最先进的新研究船, 联合国大学的科学家将有前所未有的机会参与一系列重要的沿海和深海研究实验.”

This Regional Class 研究 Vessel (the RCRV-2), owned by NSF and valued at more than $100 million, 预计将于2021年抵达URI纳拉甘西特湾校区的母港. One of only three ships of its kind in the nation, RCRV-2将为科学家提供在沿海海域开展行动的机会, 从近岸环境到外大陆隆起, as well as the open ocean. Some of the vessel’s features will include improved science labs, 更多的工作空间, state-of-the-art technologies and more comfortable berthing, 根据URI.

的 ship will replace the R/V Endeavor, 它运行了40年，是600多次研究探险的一部分.

主要研究’s School of Marine Science and Ocean Engineering, ranked in the top 10 for competitively funded marine research, owns two major research vessels: the R/V Gulf Challenger, a 50-foot aluminum vessel, and the R/V Gulf Surveyor, 一艘48英尺长的铝制水文研究双体船于2016年投入使用.
