0817302ValleyThis award will partially support the 5th Biennial Geochemical SIMS Workshop (BGSW5) on June 13-15, 2008 at the UW Conference Center, University of Wisconsin - Madison. As for the first 4 BGSWs (Los Angeles, 1996; Woods Hole, 1998; Tempe, 2001; Los Angeles, 2005), the PI's will bring together scientists and students from the nation's geological SIMS laboratories, instrument manufacturers, and other interested personnel to discuss the state of the art of SIMS microbeam analysis techniques and scientific results. The 2.5 year gap since BGSW4; the recent technological developments of SIMS instruments (IMS-1280, nanoSIMS, IMS-7f GEO); and the installation of new labs (Hawaii, Caltech, Virginia Tech) makes this meeting overdue. One result of these developments is enhanced precision of measurement for isotope ratios and burgeoning interest in SIMS by the stable isotope community. The BGSW is of great importance to the national geochemistry community since it represents the only regular meeting of researchers from geochemically-oriented SIMS labs in the United States. These facilities are vital for developing new geochemical SIMS applications and providing access and expertise to scientists from across the country who require SIMS capabilities in carrying out own research. As in past meetings, the PI's will make a particular effort to allow students and recent PhD's to participate in the BGSW meeting.

该奖项将部分支持于2008年6月13日至15日在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校会议中心举行的第五届双年一度的SIMS研讨会(BGSW5)。至于最初的4个BGSWs(洛杉矶，1996；伍兹霍尔，1998；坦佩，2001；洛杉矶，2005)，PI将汇集来自美国地质SIMS实验室、仪器制造商和其他感兴趣的人员的科学家和学生，讨论SIMS微束分析技术和科学结果的最新水平。自BGSW4以来的两年半时间；SIMS仪器(IMS-1280、NanSIMS、IMS-7f GEO)的最新技术发展；以及新实验室的安装(夏威夷、加州理工、弗吉尼亚理工大学)使本次会议姗姗来迟。这些进展的一个结果是提高了同位素比率的测量精度，以及稳定同位素社区对SIMS的兴趣日益高涨。BGSW对国家地球化学界非常重要，因为它代表了美国以地球化学为导向的SIMS实验室的研究人员唯一的定期会议。这些设施对于开发新的地球化学SIMS应用程序以及为来自全国各地需要SIMS能力进行自己研究的科学家提供途径和专业知识至关重要。与以往的会议一样，国际学生联合会将做出特别努力，允许学生和新近的博士参加BGSW会议。
