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示物，对了解全球气候变化的海洋记录非常重要。该讲习班将促进极地生物学家之间就各种主题进行交流，特别是在制定统一的分类法方面。这次会议将通过支持交流关于使用北极和南极的现代和古代硅藻来确定海冰历史的想法来推进这一领域。此外，与会者还希望能够对微体古生物学研究中必不可少的极地硅藻进行统一的分类。从更广泛的影响来看，此次研讨会将促进国际合作，拓宽美国极地研究者的视野，并为下一代微体古生物学家提供与该领域领导者互动的机会。研究结果将提交同行评审发表，并向科学界普遍提供。
