Ecology of the Chesapeake Bay Workshop

来自五个州的切萨皮克湾分水岭的24名社区大学理科教师将于1991年夏天在马里兰州所罗门的马里兰大学切萨皮克生物实验室(CBL)举行为期六天的“切萨皮克湾生态学”住宅研讨会。研讨会包括两天的讲座，两天在CBL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，重点放在“植物生命”和“水禽和脊椎动物”的主题上。这些主题是由马里兰州17所社区学院的社区学院理科教师根据1989年春季进行的一项调查选定的。实地活动使讲习班学员了解切萨皮克湾的营养和有毒预算以及水声技术。一项重要的后续活动是定于1991年10月为另外400-500人举行的电视会议，其中包括生物、物理和社会科学的教育工作者、感兴趣的教师、处理环境问题的政府官员和工业代表。对这次后续视频会议的部分支持来自切萨皮克湾信托基金。//

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. //
