U.S.-Eastern Europe Workshop on Paleobotanical Research (Santa Barbara, CA June 29 - July 5, 1996)

9512800曼彻斯特这次关于古植物学主题的美国-东欧研讨会将在1996年6月30日至7月5日在加利福尼亚州圣巴巴拉举行的第五届“国际古植物学组织”会议之前举行。研讨会由佛罗里达大学佛罗里达自然历史博物馆的史蒂文·曼彻斯特博士组织，将由美国参与者与参加同一会议的匈牙利、捷克和波兰科学家共同定义和发展新的联合研究项目。将讨论的主题将以植物区系演变和随着地质时代的生物地理交流为特色。研讨会预计将为新的合作研究提供想法，这些想法将扩大和促进美国研究界获得东欧独特的地质遗址和古植物学专业知识。由此产生的国际研究提案将由国家科学基金会在竞争的基础上进行审议。***

9512800 Manchester This U.S.-Eastern Europe workshop on paleobotanical topics will precede the fifth "International Organization of Paleobotany" conference being held in Santa Barbara, California, during June 30-July 5, 1996. Organized by Dr. Steven Manchester of the University of Florida, Florida Museum of Natural History, the workshop will feature definition and development of new joint research projects between U.S. participants and counterpart Hungarian, Czech and Polish scientists who are attending the same conference. The topics to be discussed will feature floristic evolution and biogeographical interchange through geologic time. The workshop is expected to yield ideas for new collaborative research that will extend and promote the U.S. research community's access to unique geologic sites and paleobotanical expertise in Eastern Europe. Resulting international research proposals will be considered by the National Science Foundation on a competitive basis. ***
