Researcher and Student Housing at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory

建议#0224092，“落基山生物实验室的研究人员和学生公寓”在Ian Billick博士的指导下，向落基山生物实验室(RMBL)授予了一笔赠款，用于在RMBL建造研究人员和学生公寓。RMBL是一个生物野外站，成立于1928年，旨在促进生物科学的研究和教育。来自美国各地许多机构的科学家不隶属于任何一所大学，而是访问RMBL进行研究和授课。由于学生和研究人员来自世界各地，RMBL在现场提供机舱住宿。其中许多小屋是由19世纪80年代的矿工或20世纪30年代初的生物学家建造的。这笔赠款将允许人民币L提供安全、清洁的生活设施，以便科学家开展工作和学生上课。这笔赠款将用于建造三个小屋、一个不做饭的小屋和两个烹饪小屋。不做饭的小屋将在一栋两层楼的建筑中容纳六名学生。每个学生将有单独的卧室，并将有一个共同的生活区。小屋将是基本的木结构，带燃气供暖。这两个烹饪小屋将分别容纳一个研究员家庭或四名研究生。楼上将有两个卧室，楼下将有烹饪和生活区。人民币实验室一直是一个重要的生物研究和培训中心。RMBL的科学家已经在同行评议的期刊上发表了大约1000篇论文。除了实验室在不同领域进行的基础研究，如蝴蝶生理学、溪流生态学和旱獭行为，RMBL的科学已经被用于制定《清洁空气法》的修订，并记录了气候变化将如何影响山地生态系统。曾在该实验室接受培训或工作的科学家在确定人类人口增长问题以及创建保护和恢复生物学的学术学科方面发挥了影响，为现实世界的问题提供解决方案。通过为房屋翻新提供资金，国家科学基金会将帮助确保RMBL的科学家能够继续为政策制定者提供环境决策所需的信息。

Abstract for Proposal #0224092, "Researcher and student housing at the Rocky Mountain BiologicalLaboratoryA grant has been awarded to Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL), under the directionof Dr. Ian Billick, to build researcher and student housing at the RMBL. The RMBL is a biological fieldstation that was established in 1928 to promote research and education in the biological sciences.Unaffiliated with any university, scientists from numerous institutions throughout the United States visitthe RMBL to conduct research and teach classes. Because students and researchers come from around theworld, the RMBL provides housing in cabins onsite. Many of these cabins were constructed by miners inthe 1880s or biologists in the early 1930s. This grant will allow the RMBL to provide safe, clean livingfacilities in order for scientists to conduct their work and for students to take classes.This grant will pay for the construction of three cabins, one noncooking cabin and two cookingcabins. The noncooking cabin will house six students in a two-story building. Each student will have aprivate bedroom and there will be a shared living area. The cabin will be of basic wood construction withgas heating. The two cooking cabins will each house either a researcher family or four graduate students.There will be two bedrooms upstairs with a cooking and living area downstairs.The RMBL has been an important center for biological research and training. Scientists at theRMBL have published approximately 1000 papers in peer reviewed journals. In addition to basic researchconducted at the Lab on diverse areas such as butterfly physiology, stream ecology, and marmot behavior,science at the RMBL has been used to shape the revision of the Clean Air Act and has documented howclimate change will affect montane ecosystems. Scientists who have trained or worked at the Lab havebeen influential in identifying the problem of human population growth as well as founding the academicdisciplines of Conservation and Restoration Biology to provide solutions to real world problems. Byproviding funding to renovate housing, the National Science Foundation will help ensure that scientists atthe RMBL can continue to provide information policy makers need in making decisions concerning theenvironment.
