The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering this grant to enhance ship-based technical support for marine science research on U.S. Coast Guard cutters Healy and Polar Sea in the Arctic. This grant aims to elevate USCG basic services to the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) standard for academic research. The awardee will provide two key functions: planning and delivering science technical support onboard, augmenting USCG technicians; and coordinating with NSF, USCG, and academia for scientific equipment operation, maintenance, and upgrades. Close coordination with qualified UNOLS providers is required to ensure comprehensive support for Arctic marine science.

| Description: | This solicitation is for proposals to enhance marine science and technical services provided to NSF-supported research cruises on U.S. Coast Guard cutters Healy and Polar Sea. U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) provides basic services that will be augmented by the awardee to the level provided by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) for supporting academic research. This solicitation is for an awardee to perform two primary functions: 1) to plan, coordinate and deliver science technical support onboard Healy and Polar Sea, augmenting the role of the USCG marine science technicians and 2) to coordinate with NSF, USCG and the academic community to provide for the operation, maintenance and upgrade of science equipment installed or used on Healy and Polar Sea. The awardee is expected to coordinate support among qualified providers as appropriate for specific cruises, utilizing the capabilities and equipment available through the UNOLS system. Ship-based science support will be planned and provided in close coordination with the research teams and USCG personnel with input and approval from NSF. |
