Abstract 04-53175This award provides renewed funding for an REU Site program at the Shoals MarineLaboratory (SML), a seasonal field station operated jointly by Cornell University and theUniversity of New Hampshire. SML is located on Appledore Island, ME in the Gulf ofMaine, about six miles offshore of Portsmouth, NH. The program will bring nine studentsper summer to the SML for a ten week research experience. The scientific focus of theprogram is marine biology. Examples of prior research topics of REU students includefood web interactions and community ecology, effects of climate change on localecosystems, the ecology of supratidal pools, interactions among colonial organisms,and population comparisons in amphipods. Weekly classes will be given on topics suchas writing, ethics, research design, data analysis, and career planning.

摘要04- 53175该奖项为浅滩海洋实验室（SML）的REU站点计划提供了新的资金，该实验室是由康奈尔大学和新罕布什尔州大学联合运营的季节性野外站。SML位于缅因湾的阿普尔多岛，离新罕布什尔州的朴茨茅斯离岸约6英里。该计划将带来九名学生夏季SML为期十周的研究经验。该计划的科学重点是海洋生物学。REU学生先前研究课题的例子包括食物网相互作用和社区生态学，气候变化对当地生态系统的影响，潮上池的生态学，殖民生物之间的相互作用，以及端足类动物的种群比较。每周将开设写作、道德、研究设计、数据分析和职业规划等主题的课程。
