This US-Brazil-Argentina award will support a workshop entitled, ?Biofuel technologies and their implications for water and land use?. The workshop will be held at the University of São Paulo in August 2009 and will be organized by Dr. Robert Anex of Iowa State University, Dr. Marcos Buckeridge of the University of São Paulo in Brazil, and Dr. Miguel Laborde from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina. The purpose of this workshop is to promote collaborative activities in key research areas related to biofuel production, specifically: cross-boarder impacts on land use; the impact of greenhouse gas emissions from direct and indirect land use change; and the impact of biofuel production on water availability and quality. The workshop will foster communication between a diverse group of senior researchers, junior researchers, and advanced graduate students from the U.S., Brazil, and Argentina. Participants will be from a range of disciplines including engineering, hydrology, economics, systems theory, sociology, and environmental science. The interdisciplinary group will work together to identify research topics related to the land and water use aspects of biofuel production in the Americas, specifically research that will enable the design and management of biofuel production that can lead to more sustainable systems of production to enhance rather than harm the function of natural systems. This activity will identify new research directions and networks of researchers capable of tackling such problems.

这个美国-巴西-阿根廷奖将支持一个题为研讨会，？生物燃料技术及其对水和土地利用的影响？ 讲习班将于2009年8月在圣保罗大学举行，由爱荷华州州立大学的Robert Anex博士、巴西圣保罗大学的Marcos Buckeridge博士和阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的Miguel拉博德博士组织。 该研讨会的目的是促进与生物燃料生产有关的关键研究领域的合作活动，特别是：对土地使用的跨界影响;直接和间接土地使用变化产生的温室气体排放的影响;以及生物燃料生产对水的供应和质量的影响。 该研讨会将促进来自美国的高级研究人员、初级研究人员和高级研究生之间的交流，巴西和阿根廷。 与会者将来自一系列学科，包括工程学，水文学，经济学，系统理论，社会学和环境科学。 该跨学科小组将共同努力，确定与美洲生物燃料生产的土地和水资源利用方面有关的研究课题，特别是研究将使生物燃料生产的设计和管理能够导致更可持续的生产系统，以加强而不是损害自然系统的功能。这项活动将确定新的研究方向和能够解决这些问题的研究人员网络。
