Am-9502776 Kappl，Ellen联合海洋机构公司标题：南森北极钻探计划秘书处95财年和96财年该奖项支持南森北极钻探计划(NAD)计划秘书处，这是一项旨在了解北极地质演化以及北极环境变化历史及其强迫作用的重大国际研究工作。这些知识将有助于预测北极盆地的未来及其对全球进程的影响。NAD正在制定战略计划，以获取了解北极地区新生代和中生代古海洋学、古生物学和构造史所需的长而高分辨率的沉积岩心和深层基底岩心。该计划由八个成员国(加拿大、法国、德国、日本、挪威、瑞典、英国和美国)和四个观察员国(丹麦、冰岛、荷兰和俄罗斯)组成。NAD秘书处设在联合海洋机构公司，将提供后勤支持、沟通、公众认识和方案间合作。

Abstract ATM-9502776 Kappel, Ellen Joint Oceanographic Institutions Inc. Title: NANSEN Arctic Drilling Program Secretariat FY 95 and FY 96 This award supports the program Secretariat for the NANSEN Arctic Drilling Program (NAD), a major international research effort designed to understand the geological evolution of the Arctic as well as the history of Arctic environmental change and its forcing functions. This knowledge will help predict the future of the Arctic basin and its effect on global processes. NAD is developing strategic plans for acquiring long, high-resolution sediment cores and deep basement cores needed to understand the Cenozoic and Mesozoic paleoceanography, paleobiology, and structural history of the Arctic region. The program is composed of eight member countries (Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom, and the USA) and four observer countries (Denmark, Iceland, The Netherlands, and Russia). The NAD Secretariat which is housed at Joint Oceanographic Institutions Inc. and will provide logistical support, communication, public awareness, and inter- program cooperation.
