This award provides support for the Fourth International Partnerships in Ice Core Sciences (IPICS) Workshop. IPICS originated from discussions held at the National Science Foundation in 2002 as part of a meeting entitled "The Future of U.S. Ice Core Science", which pointed to international collaboration as a key element of future work and identified the nucleus of the current IPICS scientific agenda. As a planning body IPICS formed a steering committee and has held three previous international meetings, the first of which occurred in the U.S. (IPICS 2004, Sterling, VA) and was supported by NSF/OPP. The two most recent meetings IPICS II, held in 2005 Brussels, Belgium and the IPICS steering committee meeting held in 2008 in Vienna, Austria were entirely supported with European funds. Although these previous meetings have been important and have helped to develop the IPICS scientific agenda (i.e. the four large-scale scientific projects and fifth element related to technology development) it is believed necessary to bring together the IPICS community at this point in time in order to enable further progress on the IPICS agenda. The goals of this workshop will be to: 1) synthesize the current state of knowledge in each of the four IPICS topical areas (essentially a scientific progress report); 2) to synthesize and define specific actions that will be needed to further each of the specific research topics/projects and 3) develop timelines for those actions and identify specific people or groups who will be responsible for each project. The workshop will set the stage for review papers on each of the IPICS themes that will represent the state of knowledge in each area providing a state of the art synthesis of scientific and technical results needed to take each IPICS element forward to funding agencies and to best inform further planning efforts. Finally, international groups will be identified who will take on the task of submitting research proposals or committing existing resources to each of the IPICS projects. In summary, the workshop has three major objectives: 1) Summarize the current state of science associated with the four IPICS projects; 2) Develop specific plans for funding and conducting each IPICS project and 3) Discuss the expansion of the IPICS NEEM theme to the broader problem of the history of the last interglacial. The meeting budget includes the cost of renting meeting rooms, AV equipment, food and beverages for breaks, lunches and one conference dinner, and registration and organizational services by Oregon State University Conference Services. A portion of the funds requested for this workshop will support the travel expenses (ground transportation and lodging) for 12 invited participants. The airfare for 6 domestic invitees will also be paid by this workshop funding while the airfare for 6 international invitees will be paid by the European Polar Board (through funding secured by Co-Convenor Eric Wolff). The intent is to support early career scientists and IPICS steering committee members with limited financial resources

该奖项为第四届冰芯科学国际伙伴关系（IPICS）研讨会提供支持。IPICS起源于2002年在美国国家科学基金会举行的讨论，作为题为“美国冰芯科学的未来”的会议的一部分，该会议指出国际合作是未来工作的关键要素，并确定了当前IPICS科学议程的核心。作为一个规划机构，IPICS成立了一个指导委员会，并举行了三次国际会议，第一次会议在美国举行（IPICS 2004年，弗吉尼亚州斯特林），并得到了NSF/OPP的支持。最近的两次会议IPICS II，2005年在比利时布鲁塞尔举行，IPICS指导委员会会议，2008年在奥地利维也纳举行，完全由欧洲基金支持。虽然以前的这些会议很重要，并帮助制定了IPICS科学议程（即四个大型科学项目和与技术开发有关的第五个要素），但认为有必要在此时将IPICS社区聚集在一起，以便能够在IPICS议程上取得进一步进展。本次研讨会的目标是：1）综合IPICS四个主题领域中每个领域的当前知识状况（本质上是一份科学进展报告）; 2）综合和定义推进每个特定研究主题/项目所需的具体行动和3）制定这些行动的时间表并确定负责每个项目的特定人员或团体。该讲习班将为编写关于IPICS每个主题的审查文件奠定基础，这些文件将代表每个领域的知识状况，提供将IPICS每个要素提交给供资机构所需的最新科技成果综合，并为进一步的规划工作提供最佳信息。最后，将确定国际团体，由他们负责提交研究建议或将现有资源用于IPICS的每个项目。总之，研讨会有三个主要目标：1）总结与四个IPICS项目相关的科学现状; 2）制定资助和实施每个IPICS项目的具体计划; 3）讨论将IPICS NEEM主题扩展到更广泛的末次间冰期历史问题。会议预算包括租用会议室、视听设备、休息、午餐和一次会议晚餐的食品和饮料以及俄勒冈州州立大学会议服务处的注册和组织服务的费用。为该讲习班申请的部分资金将用于支付12名应邀与会者的旅费（地面交通和住宿）。6名国内受邀者的机票也将由本次研讨会的资金支付，而6名国际受邀者的机票将由欧洲极地委员会支付（通过共同召集人Eric Wolff担保的资金）。其目的是用有限的财政资源支持早期职业科学家和IPICS指导委员会成员
