This award supports U.S. participation in the international Polar Diatom Workshop, to be held in Japan during August 2005. Diatoms are critical indicators of paleoenvironmental conditions, and are very important to understanding the marine record of global climate change. The workshop will facilitate communication among Polar diatomists on a variety of themes, but especially in developing uniform taxonomies. This meeting will advance the field by supporting the exchange of ideas concerning the use of modern and ancient diatoms in both the Arctic and Antarctic for determining sea ice history. In addition, the participants hope to develop a more uniform taxonomy of polar diatoms, which is essential to micropaleontological study in general.In terms of broader impacts, this workshop will promote international collaboration, broaden the perspective of U.S. polar diatomists, and provide an opportunity for the next generation of micropaleontologists to interact with leaders in the field. Results will be submitted for peer-reviewed publication and made generally available to the scientific community.

该奖项支持美国参加将于2005年8月在日本举行的国际极地硅藻研讨会。硅藻是古环境条件的重要指标，对了解全球气候变化的海洋记录具有重要意义。讲习班将促进极地硅藻家之间就各种主题进行交流，特别是在发展统一的分类方面。这次会议将通过支持在北极和南极利用现代和古代硅藻来确定海冰历史方面的思想交流来推动这一领域的发展。此外，参与者希望发展一种更统一的极地硅藻分类，这对一般的微古生物学研究至关重要。就更广泛的影响而言，本次研讨会将促进国际合作，拓宽美国极地硅藻家的视野，并为下一代微古生物学家提供与该领域领导者互动的机会。结果将提交同行评议出版，并向科学界普遍提供。
