This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institute (PASI), jointly supported by the NSF and Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in Puerto Morelos, Mexico in July 2007, on the topic of contemporary issues in estuarine physics, transport and water quality. Organized by Dr. Arnoldo Valle-Levinson of the University of Florida, the institute will involve approximately 30 participants from the United States and Latin America including graduate students and junior and established investigators, and about 12 instructors (internationally recognized scientists, active in the field). The activities will consist of a combination of tutorial lectures, a field trip, advanced-topic presentations, and round table discussions, with the goal of providing the participants with an up-to-date review of this field of research. Lectures will cover both recent advances in estuarine physics and on the consequences for material transport and water quality. The organizers will produce a DVD containing the lectures and the preparation and execution of the field work, as well as a textbook to be used for courses on Estuarine Physics. Estuaries are among the most critical ecosystems on earth. There is an urgent need to expand global expertise on estuarine hydrodynamics to guide policy and management strategies. The wide range of applications and materials will impart a significant interdisciplinary nature to the PASI, and should foster the cross-fertilization of new ideas to advance the field and, ultimately, increase relations between Latin American junior and senior investigators and their counterparts in the U.S.

由国家科学基金会和能源部联合支助的泛美高级研究所将于2007年7月在墨西哥莫雷洛斯港举行，主题是河口物理学、运输和水质方面的当代问题。 该研究所由佛罗里达大学的Arnoldo Valle-Levinson博士组织，将有大约30名来自美国和拉丁美洲的参与者，包括研究生和初级和成熟的研究人员，以及大约12名教员（国际公认的科学家，活跃在该领域）。这些活动将包括辅导讲座，实地考察，高级主题演讲和圆桌讨论的组合，目的是为参与者提供这一研究领域的最新回顾。讲座将涵盖河口物理学的最新进展和对物质运输和水质的影响。组织者将制作一个DVD，其中包含讲座和现场工作的准备和执行，以及用于河口物理课程的教科书。 河口是地球上最重要的生态系统之一。迫切需要扩大全球河口水动力学方面的专门知识，以指导政策和管理战略。广泛的应用程序和材料将赋予PASI重要的跨学科性质，并应促进新思想的交叉施肥，以推进该领域，并最终增加拉丁美洲初级和高级研究人员与美国同行之间的关系。
