This Biological Facilities Center proposal requests funds                       to expand the capability and flexibility of the stable                          isotope laboratory within the Ecosystems Center of the                          Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, Massachusetts.  A                     second mass spectrometer specialized for the measurement of                     carbon and nitrogen isotopes and controlled environmental                       chambers will be added so that the basic mechanisms leading to                  the changed isotopic abundances may be investigated.                            This instrumentation will be used for research spanning a wide                  range of issues in environmental research:  marine and aquatic                  food webs, terrestrial biogeochemistry, and sulfur cycling in air               and water. The combination of advanced analytical                               capabilities with precisely controlled growth chambers will                     provide a unique flexibility for addressing ecological questions.                                                                                               Currently there are only a few centers of multidisciplinary                     research on ecosystems; the Ecosystems Center is one of the                     largest of these. The facility will serve not only the scientists               of the Ecosystems Center but also investigators from outside                    Woods Hole.
