9320518 Stone This award provides funds to permit Dr. Benjamin C. Stone, Botanical Research Institute of Texas (BRIT), to conduct with Dr. Domingo A. Madulid, National Museum, Manila, a workshop to plan Phase III of the Flora of the Philippines Project (FPP). The participants, six U.S. scientists, three from Western Europe, and four from the Philippines are members of the Philippine Advisory Committee, the International Scientific Advisory Committee, and the Living Collections Committee of FPP. The workshop provides an opportunity for the members of these three committees to discuss the third and final component of FPP. This component involves the research, writing, and editing that will lead to the new flora of the Philippines. Session 1 of the workshop will be held at BRIT, in Ft. Worth, Texas, while Session 2 will be held in Manila. A completed flora will have major global significance because an important portion of the earth's biodiversity will be better understood. Earlier collections of Philippine plants held at the Museum in Manila were destroyed during World War II. There is an urgency in completing FPP at this time in order to catalog and classify Philippine plants that are endangered, threatened, or on the brink of extinction. The collaborators are well known researchers in the field of this project. This project is relevant to the objectives of the East Asia and Pacific Program which seeks to increase the level of cooperation between U.S. and East Asian scientists and engineers through the exchange of scientific information, ideas, skills, and techniques and through collaboration on problems of mutual interest and benefit. ***

小行星9320518 该奖项提供资金，允许本杰明C。斯通，得克萨斯州植物研究所（英国），进行与博士多明戈A。马尼拉国家博物馆Madulid，菲律宾植物群项目第三阶段规划研讨会。 与会者包括6名美国科学家、3名西欧科学家和4名菲律宾科学家，他们分别是菲律宾咨询委员会、国际科学咨询委员会和FPP活体收集委员会的成员。 讲习班为这三个委员会的成员提供了一个讨论FPP的第三个也是最后一个组成部分的机会。 这一部分涉及研究，写作和编辑，将导致菲律宾的新植物群。 研讨会的第一次会议将在英国，在英尺。沃思，得克萨斯州，而第二届会议将在马尼拉举行。 一个完整的植物群将具有重大的全球意义，因为地球生物多样性的一个重要部分将得到更好的理解。 在马尼拉博物馆收藏的早期菲律宾植物在第二次世界大战期间被摧毁。 目前迫切需要完成FPP，以便对濒危、受威胁或濒临灭绝的菲律宾植物进行编目和分类。 合作者是该项目领域的知名研究人员。 该项目与东亚和太平洋计划的目标有关，该计划旨在通过交流科学信息，思想，技能和技术以及通过在共同利益和利益的问题上进行合作来提高美国和东亚科学家和工程师之间的合作水平。 ***
