Group Travel to the 9th International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences; September 8-12, 2003; , Potsdam, Germany

该奖项由极地项目办公室的南极地质和地球物理项目提供，为一个团体国际旅行奖提供支持，以促进美国科学家参加将于2003年9月8日至12日在德国波茨坦举行的第九届南极地球科学国际研讨会。美国南极计划每年在南极洲支持许多前沿研究项目，这些项目的成果与这次国际会议有关。这次会议为美国科学家提供了一个机会，既可以展示他们的研究成果，又可以看看世界各地的其他研究人员在南极洲做些什么。因此，美国的强大存在是必要的。该奖项为大约25名科学家提供机票费用。该奖项将根据竞争性申请的结果来决定是否支持个人。

This award, provided by the Antarctic Geology and Geophysics Program of the Office of Polar Programs, provides support for a group international travel award to facilitate participation of U.S. scientists in the 9th International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences to be held in Potsdam, Germany, 8 -12 September, 2003. The U.S. Antarctic Program supports many cutting edge research projects in Antarctica each year and the results of these projects are relevant to this international conference. The conference affords the opportunity for U.S. scientists to both present their results and see what other researchers around the world are doing in Antarctgica. Consequently, a strong U.S. presence is warranted. Funds to cover airfare for approximately 25 scientists are provided in this award. Decisions about individuals to be supported on this award will be made based on competitive applications to present results.
