0440648Markow这项针对本科生的美墨研究体验活动由亚利桑那大学的Therese A. Markow教授组织,旨在将来自美国和墨西哥的学生聚集在一起,在美墨边境的索诺兰沙漠进行原创研究。资金将用于支持每年在墨西哥索诺拉州瓜伊马斯为六名美国学生开设的为期两周的密集研究课程,以及为这些学生提供各种相关研究活动的后续活动。这些活动将分为美国和墨西哥的研究活动。在墨西哥和其他来源的支持下,美国学生将与数量相当的墨西哥学生一道,在索诺兰沙漠昆虫生物多样性和人为变化的主题上促进真正的两国研究经验。该项目探索昆虫的生物多样性及其与正在经历快速土地转换的生态系统的相互作用。该研究还将研究生物多样性与生态系统健康、气候、经济、疾病和人为变化的关系。此外,是次活动会让学生了解该地区的昆虫区系,并探讨生境丧失的影响,同时鼓励以研究为基础的生物学概念学习。
英文摘要
0440648MarkowThis U.S.-Mexico research experiences for undergraduates activity, organized by professor Therese A. Markow of the University of Arizona, intends to bring together students from the United States and Mexico to conduct original research in the Sonoran desert on the U.S.-Mexico border. Funding will help to support an initial intensive two-week research course offered annually in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico to six students from the U.S. and follow-up activities that will offer the students a variety of related research activities in which to participate. These activities will be divided among research activities in both the U.S. and Mexico. The U.S. students will be joined by a similar number of students from Mexico supported by Mexican and other sources, to promote a truly binational research experience on the topic of insect biodiversity and anthropogenic change in the Sonoran Desert. The project explores insect biodiversity and its interaction with an ecosystem that is experiencing rapid land conversion. The research will also examine the relationship of biodiversity to ecosystem health, climate, economics, disease and anthropogenic change. In addition, the activity will provide students with an understanding of the insect fauna of the region and will explore the effects of habitat loss while encouraging research-based learning of biological concepts.
