The main goal of the 2009 Gordon Conference on Coastal Circulation to be held in June 2009 at Colby-Sawyer College is to accelerate the rate of advance of understanding of coastal ocean circulation and to enhance the development of junior scholars. The intent is to bring together a diverse (in gender, seniority, race, geographic location) group of scholars to share the latest discoveries and theories in both formal presentation and informal settings. This conference series is widely held to be the most important meeting in the community. The Gordon Foundation is providing substantial cost sharing and infrastructure support and additional contributions are being solicited from other sources.Intellectual MeritA diverse organizing committee has identified the international leaders in the field to present critical summaries of a range of important problems and to highlight the latest developments. Inquisitive discussion leaders have also been recruited to provoke and moderate discussion among the participants. Almost a half of the conference time is allocated to informal interactions among participants. This format has proven to be very effective in meeting the objectives. The Conference Chair served as the Vice Chair and program committee in the previous meeting and is therefore has the experience to ensure the success of the upcoming meeting.Broader ImpactsThe program committee has ensured that the invited speakers list includes members of groups traditionally under-represented in the field to provide role models and advice for junior scholars and students. The mix of formal and informal meetings in the program facilitates the exchange of ideas among people in different sub-areas of the field, geographic region, age etc. Past conferences have lead to the formation of new research collaborations. Among the most valuable outcomes of the conference is the establishment of relationships between senior scholars and students.

将于2009年6月在Colby-Sawyer学院举行的2009年戈登沿海环流会议的主要目标是加快对沿海海洋环流的理解的进展速度，并加强初级学者的发展。其目的是汇集不同（性别，资历，种族，地理位置）的学者群体，在正式演讲和非正式场合分享最新的发现和理论。这个系列会议被广泛认为是社区中最重要的会议。戈登基金会正在提供大量的费用分摊和基础设施支持，并正在从其他来源寻求额外的捐款。智力优势一个多元化的组织委员会已经确定了该领域的国际领导人，以提出一系列重要问题的关键摘要，并突出最新的发展。还聘请了善于提问的讨论领导人，以激发和主持与会者之间的讨论。几乎一半的会议时间分配给与会者之间的非正式互动。事实证明，这种形式在实现目标方面非常有效。会议主席在上一次会议中担任副主席和计划委员会，因此具有确保即将举行的会议成功的经验。更广泛的影响计划委员会确保邀请的演讲者名单包括传统上在该领域代表性不足的团体的成员，为初级学者和学生提供榜样和建议。该计划中正式和非正式会议的混合促进了该领域，地理区域，年龄等不同子领域的人们之间的思想交流。会议最有价值的成果之一是建立了高级学者和学生之间的关系。
