Travel Support for Invited Goldschmidt Conference Symposia Contributors

几年前，地球化学学会理事会设想了发起主要地球化学学会联合会议的计划，以促进科学家之间的合作，特别是与欧洲科学界建立更牢固的联系。更长远的目标是由欧洲和美国的社团隔年组织一次会议。1988年，地球化学学会为纪念V.M.戈德施密特诞辰一百周年而组织了第一届戈德施密特会议，与会者的积极反馈鼓励地球化学学会理事会继续组织两年一度的戈德施密特会议。第二次会议将于1990年5月2日至4日在马里兰州巴尔的摩举行。

Several years ago the council of the Geochemical Society conceived the plan to initiate joint meetings of major geochemical societies to foster cooperation between scientists, in particular to develop stronger ties with the European scientific community. The longer range goal is to hold meetings organized in alternate years by European and the United States- based societies. The very positive feedback from the participants of the first Goldschmidt Conference, which was organized by the Geochemical Society in 1988 to mark the Centennial Year of V.M. Goldschmidt's birth, encouraged the council of the Geochemical Society to proceed with organizing bianial Goldschmidt Conferences. The second conference will be held from May 2 to 4, 1990 in Baltimore, Maryland.
