ABSTRACT This award provides partial support for the continuation of activities of the Polar Research Board (PRB) for the period January 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995. The activities are designed to make research in the polar regions more productive and responsive to the needs of the United States, and to maintain U.S. awareness and representation in ongoing international science programs. Overall, the Board's program provides national and international scientific and technical information of the U.S. government policy makers and the polar research community, represents U.S. interests in international non-governmental polar scientific organizations, and conducts special programmatic studies in areas of polar science and technology deemed necessary by the government, research and business community, or the PRB. To that end, the Board will actively assist the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) in U.S. preparations for, and holding the International Conference for Arctic Research Planning in 1995. The conference, to be co-hosted by Dartmouth College and the U.S. Army's Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory, is sponsored by the PRB and the National Science Foundation. During the year, the Board will also provide information on the activities of IASC and the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR)(a non-governmental science organization which also serves as an advisory body to the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Parties, to the U.S. government agencies and polar research community through regular meetings, mailings and electronic mail. An annual report of the Board for 1995 will be published, and its activities will also be reported in the Journal of Antarctic Research and Arctic Research of the United States.

摘要 该奖项为极地研究委员会（PRB）在1995年1月1日至1995年12月31日期间继续开展活动提供部分支持。 这些活动旨在使极地地区的研究更富有成效，更能满足美国的需求，并保持美国在正在进行的国际科学计划中的意识和代表性。 总体而言，该委员会的计划提供美国政府决策者和极地研究界的国家和国际科学和技术信息，代表美国在国际非政府极地科学组织中的利益，并在政府，研究和商业界或PRB认为必要的极地科学和技术领域进行特别计划研究。 为此，委员会将积极协助国际北极科学委员会（IASC）在美国筹备和举办1995年北极研究规划国际会议。 这次会议将由达特茅斯学院和美国陆军寒冷地区研究和工程实验室共同主办，由PRB和国家科学基金会赞助。 在这一年中，委员会还将通过定期会议、邮寄和电子邮件向美国政府机构和极地研究界提供关于机构间常设委员会和南极研究科学委员会（南极研究科学委员会是一个非政府科学组织，也是南极条约协商国的咨询机构）活动的资料。 委员会1995年的年度报告将予出版，其活动也将在《美国南极研究和北极研究杂志》上报道。
