Participation of Qualified Oceanographers from Developing Countries in International Scientific Meetings

9808985 Gross该奖项为海洋研究科学委员会（SCOR）提供资金，用于为来自发展中国家和经济转型国家的合格和活跃的海洋学研究人员提供旅行援助的长期计划。海洋学委员会提供旅费赠款，使这些人能够出席与其科学兴趣有关的国际会议，以及与海洋学委员会和国家科学基金会海洋科学司的科学兴趣有关的国际会议。 这一正在进行的项目已成为海洋学研究委员会努力向第三世界以及最近向俄罗斯和东欧的海洋科学家提供援助的基石。 所有资金接受者都被告知，这种援助是通过美国国家科学基金会向SCOR提供赠款而实现的。项目目标包括：扩大传统上参与与海洋有关的国际科学会议的范围，让更多的发展中国家科学家参与;加强在规划大规模海洋学实验方面交流详细的区域知识或专门知识;提供更多的机会，使发展中国家能够参与国际合作方案，如海洋学联合政府首脑会议和全球海洋学实验方案。

9808985GrossThis award provides funds to the Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) for a long-standing program of travel assistance to qualified and active oceanographic researchers from developing countries and nations with economies in transition. SCOR travel grants are awarded to enable such individuals to attend international meetings relevant to their scientific interests and to those of SCOR and the Division of Ocean Sciences of NSF. This ongoing project has become the cornerstone of SCOR's efforts to provide assistance to marine scientists in the third world and, more recently in Russia and Eastern Europe. All recipients of funds are informed that this assistance is made possible through a grant to SCOR from the US National Science Foundation. Project objectives include: broadening traditional participation in ocean-related international scientific meetings to include more scientists from developing countries; enhancing the exchange of detailed regional knowledge or expertise in planning for large-scale oceanographic experiments; and providing greater opportunities leading to the involvement of developing countries in international collaborative programs, such as JGOFS and GLOBEC.
