[Lista-Algas] Call for Proposals

[Andres Boltovskoy]

Call for Proposals
A range of unique marine facilities for algal research at the Trondheim 
Marine Systems Research Infrastructure are now available for free access!
Hydralab III, an Integrated Infrastructure Initiative in the 6th 
framework programme of the EC, invites European scientists to submit a 
proposal for access before the deadline of 30 SEPTEMBER 2007.

In Trondheim, the following facilities are accessible:
* Research Vessel Gunnerus (new coastal vessel of about 30 m long, 
equipped with the latest technology for a variety of research activities)
* Outdoor seawater basin (basin, continuously supplied with seawater 
from 100 m depth; ideal for ecological, sedimentation and bio-optical 
studies and for instrument testing)
* Sletvik field station (semi-enclosed bay with experimental test 
facilities and unpolluted coastal waters)
* Ocean Basin (very large experimental basin up to 10 m deep, with wind, 
waves up to 0.9 m high and steady currents)
* Coriolis rotating basin (5 m diameter basin to study physical 
processes affected by the rotation of the earth)
* Marine Cybernetics laboratory (basin for testing ships, rigs, 
underwater vehicle and propuslsion systems)

Through the project, the European Commission finances access to the 
research infrastructures, in addition to travel and subsistence expenses 
for its users. It is recommended to send a draft proposal to the 
infrastructure manager well in advance of the deadline for submission.
