This award will facilitate the organization of a national conference in New Orleans, LA to explore key research questions and issues related to the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The organization of the conference is led by the alliance of Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi which was formed after hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. The conference will serve as a catalyst for bringing together the people, tools, and research ideas necessary to develop long term collaborative approaches to research related to oil spill and disaster prevention, response, mitigation, recovery, and planning.Intellectual MeritThis conference builds on the existing cyberinfrastructure and potential for collaboration among the three states (AL, MS, and LA) for hazard management, coastal vulnerability studies, and risk reduction. It will enable planning and discussion to coordinate intermediate and long term research priorities and to build public-private sector partnerships regionally and nationally. In addition, the conference will have a poster session in which researchers from the Gulf Coast academic institutions and recent NSF Rapid Response Research Awardees will discuss the ongoing research related to the oil spill. Broader ImpactsThis conference will provide broad focus and coordination for the Gulf oil spill related research efforts in the neighboring states of AL, MS, and LA. The event will strengthen existing collaborations, forge new collaborations within and beyond the three states, and help to train students in cross-disciplinary research that is relevant to the region. The researchers and students will engage in efforts to inform and educate the citizens, and will positively impact on the policy and decision making process.

该奖项将促进在新奥尔良举行的全国会议的组织，洛杉矶探讨关键的研究问题和墨西哥湾最近的石油泄漏问题。这次会议的组织是由亚拉巴马、路易斯安那和密西西比联盟领导的，该联盟是在2005年卡特里娜和丽塔飓风后成立的。本次会议将作为一个催化剂，汇集必要的人员，工具和研究思路，以制定长期的合作方法，研究与石油泄漏和灾害预防，反应，缓解，恢复和规划有关的人员，工具和研究思路。（AL，MS和LA）用于灾害管理，沿海脆弱性研究和风险降低。它将使规划和讨论能够协调中期和长期的研究优先事项，并在区域和国家一级建立公私部门的伙伴关系。此外，会议将有一个海报会议，来自墨西哥湾沿岸学术机构的研究人员和最近的NSF快速反应研究奖获得者将讨论与漏油有关的正在进行的研究。 更广泛的影响这次会议将提供广泛的重点和协调，为海湾石油泄漏相关的研究工作，在邻近国家的AL，MS和LA。 该活动将加强现有的合作，在三个州内外建立新的合作，并帮助培养学生进行与该地区相关的跨学科研究。 研究人员和学生将致力于向公民提供信息和教育，并对政策和决策过程产生积极影响。
