ABSTRACT2006 Gilbert Club meetingIntellectual meritThe Gilbert Club has met every year in Berkeley after the Fall AmericanGeophysical Union since 1983. It has grown from the original 7 participants to, in 2005,nearly 278, and has become a forum for new ideas, community initiatives, sustainedcommunication, and the building of collegiality. Geomorphology has expanded rapidlyin this 23-year period, and the Gilbert Club has contributed to that evolution. Themeeting consists typically of three speakers followed at the end of the day with "pop-ups"of short reports by any attendee. Last year NSF partially supported the meeting, reducingthe cost to participants significantly, and that caused the attendance to jump by 40% overthe previous year. This year we propose that NSF cover full participation costs.The meeting is run entirely on volunteer efforts of Berkeley graduate students, sothat the request here is just for room and vehicle rentals, food and beverages. Our sizenow requires that we meet in a larger setting than the PI's house in the evening, andrental for a facility has been added to the request. The participants pay for their owntravel and lodging, so the financial commitment by the participants is still substantial.Broader ImpactsUnder-represented individuals have been invited in the past and are particularlysought among the new and emerging group of geomorphologists. We actively seeknames and track progress of individuals in order to make speaker invitations when theindividual is ready to give a substantial presentation. Gilbert Club is openly advertisedand anyone is welcome to participate.

摘要2006年吉尔伯特俱乐部会议学术价值自1983年以来，吉尔伯特俱乐部每年秋季在伯克利举行美国地球物理联合会会议。它从最初的7个参与者发展到2005年的近278个，并已成为新思想，社区倡议，可持续沟通和建立合议制的论坛。在这23年里，地貌学迅速发展，吉尔伯特俱乐部为这一演变做出了贡献。会议通常由三个发言者组成，然后在一天结束时，任何与会者的简短报告都会弹出窗口。去年，NSF部分支持了这次会议，大大降低了与会者的费用，这使得与会者比前一年增加了40%。今年，我们建议NSF支付全部参与费用。会议完全由伯克利研究生的志愿者努力进行，因此这里的要求只是房间和车辆租赁，食物和饮料。我们现在的规模要求我们在一个比PI晚上的房子更大的环境中见面，并且在请求中增加了一个设施的租金。与会者支付自己的旅行和住宿，所以与会者的财务承诺仍然是可观的。更广泛的影响过去曾邀请过代表性不足的个人，特别是新兴的地貌学家群体。我们积极寻找个人的名字和跟踪进展，以便在个人准备好进行实质性演讲时发出演讲者邀请。吉尔伯特俱乐部是公开的，欢迎任何人参加。
