A Diatom Paleolimnology Data Cooperative to Support Climate Change Research

该奖项是为了继续运作和改进硅藻古湖沼学数据合作社（DPDC）从自然科学院在费城经营。 DPDC是一个可公开访问的网站和数据库，旨在为科学家和感兴趣的各方提供硅藻计数以及温度，降水，水化学和水文特征的估计，用于广泛的古湖泊学和古气候学研究。 DPDC促进了各种各样的美国和非美国科学家和教育工作者的独立研究。

This award is for the continued operation and improvements to the Diatom Paleolimnology Data Cooperative (DPDC) operated from the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia. The DPDC is a publicly accessible website and database designed to provide scientists, and interested parties, with counts of diatom and estimates of temperature, precipitation, water chemistry, and hydrologic characteristics for use across a broad spectrum of paleolimnological and paleoclimatological studies. The DPDC enhances independent study by a wide variety of US and non-US scientists and educators.
