Ridge 2000 Office - 3 Yr. Rotation at Scripps Institution of Oceanography

布莱克曼0532013该项目包括在未来三年内维护斯克里普斯海洋研究所的Ridge2000办公室，以及一些讲习班、理论研究所和会议。Ridge 2000计划的综合研究部分强调通过了解地幔与微生物之间的联系而获得的对脊状过程的新见解。即将到来的Ridge 2000办事处工作的一个关键方面将是，通过协调研究工作和设计有效的场所，传播初步成果和随后的规划，最大限度地提高海洋地质和生物界实现这一目标的能力。此外，教育和外展工作是Ridge 2000办事处工作的重要组成部分。这包括开发K-12课程，让教师和他们的学生参与海上航行的实验，为即将在桦树水族馆举行的深海展览开发MOR组件，以及在加州大学圣迭戈分校举办全国高中生ROV比赛。Ridge 2000网站包括研究促进和教育两个部分。

Blackman 0532013 This project involves maintaining the Ridge 2000 office at Scripps Institution of Oceanography for the next three years, in addition to a number of workshops, theoretical institutes, and meetings. The Integrated Studies component of the Ridge 2000 program emphasizes new insights into ridge processes obtained by understanding the linkage from mantle to microbe. A key aspect of upcoming Ridge 2000 office efforts will be maximize the ability of the marine geological and biological communities to achieve this, via coordination of research efforts and design of effective venues for dissemination of initial results and subsequent planning.This whole activity falls under the category of broader impacts. In addition, education and outreach efforts are an important part of RIDGE 2000 office efforts. This includes K-12 lesson development, involving teachers and their students in experiments on seagoing voyages, developing a MOR component for the upcoming Deep Ocean exhibit at Birch Aquarium, and hosting the national high school student ROV competition at UCSD. The RIDGE 2000 website has both research facilitation and education components.
