9908773DouglasThis US-Mexico award will support Professor Robert Douglas and Donn Gorsline of the University of Southern California (USC) in a research collaboration with Drs. Enrique Nava-Sanchez and Janette Murillo-Jimenez at CICIMAR/IPN and Dr. Adolfo Monia-Cruz at the National Autonoma University of Mexico. The researchers intend to build on previous work by other investigators and the group at USC to examine annual to millennial cycles recorded in dysaerobic to anaerobic sediment deposits preserved in slope and margin basins of the western Gulf of California from Santa Rosalia south to La Paz. This research initiative arises from the increasing interest of the past two decades in global climate change and the search for high-resolution records of such changes.By studying change in productivity or in water mass characteristics and position, the investigator aims to define the effects of the major factors both across the Gulf and along the Gulf axis following the major productivity gradients. These records are critical in defining the variations in ocean-climate interactive and to test models for climate prediction. In addition to the collaborative work between the investigators, this project will support thesis and dissertation work by students from Mexico and the United States.***

9908773道格拉斯这个美国-墨西哥奖将支持南加州大学（USC）的罗伯特道格拉斯教授和唐·戈尔斯林与CICIMAR/IPN的恩里克·纳瓦-桑切斯博士和珍妮特·穆里略-希门尼斯博士以及墨西哥国立自治大学的阿道夫·莫尼亚-克鲁兹博士进行研究合作。 研究人员打算在其他研究人员和南加州大学的小组以前的工作的基础上，研究从圣罗萨利亚南部到拉巴斯的加州湾西部斜坡和边缘盆地中保存的缺氧到厌氧沉积物沉积物中记录的年度到千年周期。 这项研究倡议是由于过去20年来对全球气候变化的兴趣日益增加，并寻求这种变化的高分辨率记录，通过研究生产力或水团特征和位置的变化，调查员的目的是确定主要生产力梯度之后海湾两侧和沿着海湾轴线的主要因素的影响。 这些记录对于确定海洋-气候相互作用的变化和测试气候预测模型至关重要。 除了研究人员之间的合作，该项目将支持来自墨西哥和美国的学生的论文和学位论文工作。
