项目摘要

Award Abstract - 9977377Functional Ecology is an integrative and interdisciplinary field that considers the biochemical, morphological and physiological bases of ecological processes, interactions and potential adaptations of organisms. Studies of Functional Ecology span levels of organization from parts of individuals through ecosystems. Although the field of Functional Ecology by its nature is integrative and interdisciplinary, much of the research traditionally progressed along separate taxonomic lines. Animal and plant studies have followed different trajectories, and, because of tradition in both training and research, few researchers work on both animal and plant systems. Similar divisions have occurred between terrestrial and aquatic systems, for both freshwater and marine systems. In addition, research into areas of physiological function is traditionally separate from studies of morphological and behavioral function.Functional Ecology research is equipment and technology dependent, much like Molecular Biology. Share use of expensive equipment, research collaborations among scientists with different areas of expertise, and mutual training of students in a single facility has proven to be very successful for students and researchers. This award will be used to develop a multi-user facility dedicated to research, training, and education in Functional Ecology. This facility will fill a crucial need in training in the area of Functional Ecology by providing equipment that can be used by a variety of researchers and students whose analytical needs overlap and whose research areas are complementary. The Ecology and Evolution Department at Stony Brook has a strong group of researchers in this field. A core facility housed in a common lab space will significantly enhance research capabilities, facilitate research collaboration, and will improve capacity to train both undergraduate and graduate students in the modern analytical methods are essential for Functional Ecology.

获奖摘要 - 9977377功能生态学是一个综合性和跨学科领域，考虑生态过程、生物体相互作用和潜在适应的生化、形态和生理基础。功能生态学的研究跨越了从个体的各个部分到生态系统的组织层次。尽管功能生态学领域本质上是综合性和跨学科的，但许多研究传统上是沿着不同的分类学路线进展的。动物和植物研究遵循不同的轨迹，并且由于训练和研究的传统，很少有研究人员同时研究动物和植物系统。对于淡水和海洋系统，陆地和水生系统之间也存在类似的划分。此外，生理功能领域的研究传统上与形态和行为功能的研究是分开的。功能生态学研究依赖于设备和技术，就像分子生物学一样。事实证明，共享使用昂贵的设备、不同专业领域的科学家之间的研究合作以及学生在单一设施中的相互培训对于学生和研究人员来说是非常成功的。该奖项将用于开发一个多用户设施，致力于功能生态学的研究、培训和教育。该设施将提供可供分析需求重叠且研究领域互补的各种研究人员和学生使用的设备，从而满足功能生态学领域培训的关键需求。石溪分校生态与进化系在该领域拥有一支强大的研究人员队伍。位于公共实验室空间的核心设施将显着提高研究能力，促进研究合作，并将提高对本科生和研究生进行功能生态学至关重要的现代分析方法的培训能力。
