A Workshop: To Develop a Scientific Plan for an Initiative on Recruitment Processes and Ecosystem Structure

将举办一次讲习班，为一项关于招聘程序和生态系统结构的倡议制定科学计划。该计划将：说明要解决的主要科学问题；确定解决这些问题的研究战略，特别是涉及人口动力学、生态学以及生物、化学和物理海洋学的跨学科问题；具体说明可能阻碍实现研究目标的概念、技术和实施问题；确定机构间和国际比较的机会。讲习班将于1988年4月在哥伦比亚特区华盛顿联合海洋机构公司举行，该机构将负责讲习班的安排。将成立一个组织委员会和一系列工作组来规划和组织这次研讨会。研讨会的邀请函将由组委会向大约100名潜在参与者发出。研讨会的完整报告，包括所达成的结论和工作文件，将于1988年底发表。

A workshop will be convened to develop a scientific plan for an initiative on recruitment processes and ecosystem structure. The plan would: describe the major scientific issues to be addressed; identify research strategies for addressing these issues, especially interdisciplinary issues involving population dynamics, ecology, and biological, chemical and physical oceanography; specify conceptual, technological and implementation problems that might impede attainment of research goals; and identify opportunities for interinstitutional and international collboration. The workshop will be held in April 1988 in Washington, D.C., at the Joint Oceanographic Institutions, Incorporated, which will handle the arrangements for the workshop. An organizing committee and a series of working groups will be set up to plan and organize the workshop. Invitations to the workshop will be issued by the organizing committee to approximately 100 prospective participants. A full report of the workshop, including the conclusions reached and the working papers, will be published by late 1988.
