AbstractThis award supports US-participation in the "The 3rd SCAR Open Science Conference" to be held in St. Petersburg, Russia in July 2008. The SCAR (Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research) Conference is an international meeting covering all aspects of current polar research, and this conference includes both the Antarctic and Arctic. Recent results and opportunities for future cooperation are highlighted, which is timely for projects for the current International Polar Year 2007-2009. In terms of broader impacts, this workshop promotes international collaboration, broadens the perspective of U.S. scientists, and provides an opportunity for the next generation of scientists to interact with leaders in the field. This award also provides support for applicants from underrepresented groups, as well as early career scientists and students. Outcomes have societal relevance in understanding global climate change, and the opening day's plenary session will bring the meeting to the attention of the media and general public.

摘要该奖项支持美国参加将于2008年7月在俄罗斯圣彼得堡举行的“第三届SCAR开放科学会议”。SCAR（南极研究科学委员会）会议是一个涵盖当前极地研究各个方面的国际会议，该会议包括南极和北极。强调了最近的成果和未来合作的机会，这对当前的2007-2009国际极地年的项目来说是及时的。就更广泛的影响而言，本次研讨会促进了国际合作，拓宽了美国科学家的视野，并为下一代科学家提供了与该领域领导者互动的机会。该奖项还为来自代表性不足群体的申请人以及早期职业科学家和学生提供支持。会议成果对理解全球气候变化具有社会意义，开幕当天的全体会议将引起媒体和公众对会议的关注。
