- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service (DOC/NOAA/NESDIS) intends to modify an existing contract (DG133E-05-SE-5016) with the University of Miami to extend services for continued research in coral-based climate studies for the period commencing from time of award through July 31, 2009. This study involves measuring geochemical and coral growth proxy indicators for temperature and salinity in coral skeletons from corals collected from Florida and St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Florida coral will be analyzed for δ18O and Sr/Ca at a resolution of 2-3 samples a year over its entire 300 year record. A geochemical record will be replicated along three transects in the same coral over the upper 100 years. One of these three transects is in the process of completing for work in 2007-2008. The second transect will be drilled in 2008-2009. This procurement is being conducted per FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (NTE $100k) NAICS code 541710. This is not a request for a competitive proposal. It is a notice of intent to modify an existing contract for continued research.
