Funds are requested to support sending several undergraduate students to the 2006 Southern California Academy of Sciences (SCAS) annual meeting, which will be held in conjunction with the Southern California Society for EnvironmentalToxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) and the California Estuarine Research Society(CERS), at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California on May 12 and 13, 2006.Approximately 400 attendees are expected over the two days, of which 40% will bestudents from high school to postdoctoral, 25% are college and university faculty, and therest are evenly split between government agencies, industry, and NGOs, with a handfulof the general public. The annual meeting will continue the consistent commitment ofSCAS to interconnections between academia and industry, government agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and advocacy groups, with regard to scientific approaches to local environmental issues. The meeting also provides a low-key, informal setting for students presenting their original research, often for the first time as a professional. Funds from the National Science Foundation will assist SCAS in meeting our goals by: supporting student participation, reducing registration fees, supporting dissemination of the presented papers beyond meeting itself, providing a higher profile for outreach to potential new members and those from under-represented groups.

要求提供资金，以支持派遣几名本科生参加2006年南加州科学院（SCAS）年会，该年会将于5月12日和13日在加州马里布的佩珀代因大学与南加州环境毒理学和化学学会（SETAC）和加州河口研究学会（CERS）联合举行，2006年，预计在两天内将有大约400名与会者，其中40%将是高中生到博士后，25%是学院和大学教师，其余的是政府机构，工业和非政府组织之间的平均分配，以及少量的公众。年度会议将继续SCAS的一贯承诺，学术界和工业界，政府机构，非政府组织和倡导团体之间的相互联系，就当地环境问题的科学方法。会议还为学生提供了一个低调，非正式的环境，展示他们的原创研究，通常是第一次作为专业人士。来自国家科学基金会的资金将通过以下方式帮助SCAS实现我们的目标：支持学生参与，降低注册费，支持会议本身之外的论文传播，为潜在的新成员和代表性不足的群体提供更高的宣传。
