Conference and Office Structure at Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory

在B博士的指导下，向考维塔水文实验室提供了一笔赠款。Kloeppel将建造一个会议设施，作为考维塔水文实验室设施发展计划第三阶段的一部分。 全面的多阶段设施计划已经制定，以满足当前和未来的研究，教育和培训需求。该实验室占地2185公顷，位于北卡罗来纳州的阿巴拉契亚山脉南部，是美国农业部林务局的财产，南方研究站（SRS）和格鲁吉亚大学（UGA）共同管理合作研究。在过去的八年中，研究计划已大大扩大，包括在阿巴拉契亚山脉南部的土地利用变化的原因和后果的区域分析作为LTER计划的一部分。当与其他研究活动相结合时，目前有100多名研究人员正在考维塔进行研究。该项目的完成将提供所需的基础设施，以维持和建立科维塔的科学和教育计划，提供设施，以支持更多和更大的访问学生，科学家，土地管理人员以及公众群体。

A grant has been awarded to Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory under the direction of Dr. B. Kloeppel to construct a construct a conference facility as part of Phase III of the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory Facilities Development Plan. The comprehensive multi-phase facilities plan has been developed to meet current and future research, education, and training needs. The 2185-ha laboratory, located in the southern Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina, is a USDA Forest Service property where the Southern Research Station (SRS) and the University of Georgia (UGA) jointly administer cooperative research. Within the past eight years, the research program has substantially broadened to include regional analyses of causes and consequences of land-use change in the southern Appalachians as part of the LTER program. When combined with other research activities, more than 100 investigators are currently conducting studies at Coweeta. Completion of this project will provide the infrastructure needed to sustain and build the science and education programs at Coweeta by providing facilities to support of more and larger groups of visiting students, scientists, land managers as well as the general public.
