Interim IODP Planning

为期10年的综合海洋钻探计划（IODP）计划于2003年10月1日接替海洋钻探计划（ODP），代表了近25年科学海洋钻探的延续。IODP将由NSF和日本教育、文化、体育、科学和技术部（MEXT）共同支持和领导，预计在不久的将来会有其他国家和财团的成员加入。该提案旨在提供关键的IODP规划活动，以确保计划中的IODP于2003年10月1日启动，并于2004年开始钻井活动。国际IODP管理公司（IMI），被确定为负责协调IODP科学规划和运作工作的中央管理办公室，预计要到2004年1月1日才开始运作。这项建议在过渡期间提供规划、协调和服务，以确保国际发展计划署的活动能够按计划开始。这些规划活动包括：1)建立IODP执行机构；2)建立IODP科学规划委员会，对2004年的钻井建议进行评估和排序；3)设立科学咨询机构（SAS）的其他委员会；4)聘用IMI的主要官员，包括院长和副院长，并筹备IMI的常设办事处；5)协调与IODP钻井平台实施组织（IO）之间的初始活动，包括日本深地勘探中心，尚未命名的美国IODP系统集成承包商，以及负责管理实施可能的北极任务特定平台钻井的欧洲管理机构；6)与NSF、next、SAS和IO协调制定第一个IODP计划计划，该计划将详细说明2004财年的运作时间表，并确定数据库、数据库、出版物、教育和推广活动。

The 10-year Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) is scheduled to succeed the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) on October 1, 2003, representing a continuation of nearly 25 years of scientific ocean drilling. The IODP will be jointly supported and led by the NSF and the Ministry of Ministry of Education, Culture, Sport, Science, and Technology (MEXT) of Japan, with membership from other nations and consortia expected in the near future. This proposal is to provide critical IODP planning activities needed to ensure planned IODP start-up October 1, 2003 and commencement of drilling activities in 2004. IODP Management International, Inc. (IMI), the identified Central Management Office responsible for coordinating IODP science planning and operational efforts, is not expected to begin operations until January 1, 2004. This proposal provides planning coordination and services in the interim that will ensure that IODP activities are able to start as planned. These planning activities include:1) building an IODP Executive Authority;2) building an IODP Science Planning Committee needed to evaluate and rank proposed 2004 drilling proposals;3) establishing other committees of the Science Advisory Structure (SAS);4) hiring key officials of IMI, including its President and Vice President, and preparing for a permanent IMI office;5) coordinating initial activities with and between the IODP drilling platform Implementing Organizations (IO's), including the Center for Deep Earth Exploration in Japan, the yet-to-be-named U.S. IODP System Integration Contractor, and the European Management Agency tasked with managing implementation of possible Arctic Mission Specific Platform drilling; and6) coordinating with NSF, MEXT, the SAS, and the IO's in producing the first IODP Program Plan, which will detail the FY2004 operational schedule as well as identify databank, database, publication, and education and outreach activities.
