This grant supports a workshop focused on discussion of the desirability/attributes of a centralized lake core analysis and storage facility(ies) that would provide the maximum benefit to the U.S. paleoclimate community as well as the greater geoscience community. The workshop will be held in Salt Lake City on the campus of the University of Utah in March 2006 and will be advertised widely in advance. That significant progress in paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic investigations may be gained by establishing: (1) long-term curation of and community access to lacustrine sediment cores, (2) easy access to information about existing cores, and (3) uniform protocols for core description and sample cataloging, will be topics/questions of discussion. The report of this workshop will assist Program in identifying the need for and, if so, the optimum characteristics of such a facility and may provide a context for a future call for competing proposals.

该补助金支持一个研讨会，重点讨论集中式湖芯分析和存储设施的可取性/属性，这将为美国古气候界和更大的地球科学界提供最大的利益。 该研讨会将于2006年3月在湖城的犹他州大学校园内举行，并将提前进行广泛宣传。 通过建立：（1）湖泊沉积物岩心的长期管理和社区访问，（2）容易获得有关现有岩心的信息，（3）岩心描述和样品编目的统一协议，可以在古环境和古气候调查中取得重大进展，将是讨论的主题/问题。 该研讨会的报告将有助于规划署确定对此类设施的需求，如果需要的话，还将确定此类设施的最佳特性，并可能为今后征集竞争性提案提供背景。
