This award supports US-participation in the China/US Conference Research Roundtable "Securing the Legacy of the International Polar Year through China-US Cooperation", which will be held in Beijing, China, October 22-23, 2009, as the part of the "George Bush China-U.S. Relations Conference: 2009 China-U.S. Relations Conference: Looking Ahead After 30 Years". It is the fourth in a series, hosted by Texas A&M University (Bush School of Government and Public Service and George Bush Presidential Library Foundation) and the Chinese People?s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries. The conference will involve thematic sessions and research roundtables in which distinguished academic scholars from both countries will discuss collaborative research opportunities in a variety of strategic areas, such as environmental sustainability, energy, and education. The research roundtable proposed here would be a part of these discussions. In terms of broader impacts, this proposal is strong in that the roundtable discussion will foster international collaboration, broaden the perspective of U.S. scientists, and provide an opportunity for proposing joint projects in the Arctic and Antarctic. Following the formal conclusion of the International Polar Year (IPY) 2007-2008 in March 2009, efforts are now focused on formulating a framework for securing the legacy of this international event.

该奖项支持美国参加将于2009年10月22日至23日在中国北京举行的“通过中美合作确保国际极地年的遗产”的中美会议研究圆桌会议，作为“乔治·布什中美关系会议：2009年中美关系会议：展望30年后”的一部分。这是由德克萨斯农工大学（布什政府与公共服务学院和乔治布什总统图书馆基金会）和中国人民对外友好协会主办的系列活动中的第四次。会议将包括主题会议和研究圆桌会议，来自两国的杰出学术学者将讨论环境可持续性、能源和教育等各种战略领域的合作研究机会。这里提出的研究圆桌会议将是这些讨论的一部分。就更广泛的影响而言，该提案的影响力很大，因为圆桌讨论将促进国际合作，拓宽美国科学家的视野，并为提出北极和南极联合项目提供机会。 2009 年 3 月 2007-2008 年国际极地年 (IPY) 正式结束后，目前的工作重点是制定一个框架，以确保这一国际活动的遗产。
