Ecology of the Chesapeake Bay Workshop

1991年夏，在马里兰州所罗门的马里兰大学切萨皮克生物实验室为来自五个州切萨皮克湾流域的24名社区学院科学教员举办了为期六天的“切萨皮克湾生态”住宅讲习班。研讨会包括两天的讲座，两天在CBL的研究船上的实地活动，以及两天在CBL的实验室工作。技术内容由CBL研究人员提供，重点关注“植物生命”和“水禽和脊椎动物鱼类”主题。这些主题是由马里兰州17所社区学院的社区学院科学教师根据1989年春季进行的一项调查选择的。现场活动使讲习班参与者接触到切萨皮克湾的营养和毒性预算以及水声技术。一项重要的后续活动是定于1991年10月为400-500人举行视像会议，其中包括生物、物理和社会科学方面的教育工作者、有关教师、处理环境问题的政府官员和工业代表。切萨皮克湾信托基金会为后续视频会议提供了部分支持。//

A six-day residential workshop on the "Ecology of the Chesapeake Bay" for 24 community college science faculty from the five-state Chesapeake Bay watershed is being held in Summer 1991 at the University of Maryland's Chesapeake Biological Laboratory (CBL), Solomons, Maryland. The workshop includes two days of lecture, two days of field activities on CBL's research vessels, and two days of laboratory work at CBL. The technical content is being provided by CBL researchers and focuses on the topics "Plant Life" and "Waterfowl and Vertebrate Fish". These topics were selected by community college science faculty in the 17 Maryland community colleges, in response to a survey administered in spring 1989. Field activities expose workshop participants to Chesapeake Bay nutrient and toxic budgets and to hydroacoustics technologies. A significant follow-up activity is a videoconference scheduled for October 1991 for 400-500 additional persons, including educators in the biological, physical and social sciences, interested teachers, government officials dealing with the environment, and industrial representatives. Partial support for this follow-up videoconference is from the Chesapeake Bay Trust. //
