Science Journalism Program for the Arctic

该提案旨在为北极科学领域的科学记者培训研究金提供多年资助。 科学新闻方案在过去17年中一直通过海洋生物实验室运作，但一直是临时资助的。 这一提议将增加可以参加该计划并接受北极科学培训的记者人数，并提供三年的持续资金，以扩大该计划的北极领域部分。 参与的记者将在伍德霍尔的MBL举行的“实践实验室课程”中接受环境科学培训，然后他们将前往阿拉斯加的图里克湖LTER，参加为期约10天的科学项目。 该计划得到了记者的大力支持，并通过参与者关于北极科学的文章证明了成果。

This proposal is to provide multi-year funding for a science journalists training fellowship in Arctic sciences. The Science Journalism Program has been in operation through the Marine Biological Laboratory for the past 17 years but has been funded on an ad-hoc basis. This proposal would increase the number of journalists that can participate in the program and that receive training in Arctic sciences, as well as provide three years of continuous funding in order to expand the Arctic field section of the program. The participating journalists will receive training in the environmental sciences in a "hands-on laboratory course" held at the MBL in Wood Hole, then they would travel to the Toolik Lake LTER , Alaska for approximately 10 days to participate in on going scientific projects. This program has had strong support from journalists and has proven results through the participant's articles on Arctic science.
