International Council for Exploration of the Sea: Travel Support for Academic Participants, 2011-2013

该奖项为美国学术科学家参加ICES年度科学会议、工作组和研讨会、座谈会、主题会议和培训计划提供资金支持。年轻和知名科学家的申请将得到考虑，以确保美国学术界在ICES活动中具有强大和多样化的代表性。广泛影响：根据最近关于海洋管理的总统行政命令、海洋研究优先计划和美国海洋政策委员会的目标，美国保持在海洋科学方面的领导作用非常重要。ICES的新结构及其专注于基于生态系统管理的科学的五个指导小组为美国科学家提供了参与国际合作研究的机会。NSF的资助将确保美国学术科学能够在ICES发挥领导潜力，并有能力招募年轻科学家参与ICES活动。资金还将有助于确保学术界得到很好的代表，平衡美国政府科学的强大投入，主要是通过NOAA。

This award provides funds to support travel by U.S. academic scientists for participation in the ICES Annual Science Conference, its Working Groups and Workshops, Symposia, Theme Sessions, and Training Programs. Applications by young and established scientists will be considered to assure strong and diverse representation by the U.S. academic community in ICES activities.Broader Impacts: It is important for the United States to maintain a leadership role in marine science, in accord with the recent Presidential Executive Order on ocean stewardship, the Ocean Research Priorities Plan and the goals of the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy. The new structure of ICES and its five Steering Groups that are focused on science for ecosystem-based management provide opportunities for U.S. scientists to engage in collaborative international research. NSF funding will insure that U.S. academic science can exercise both leadership potential in ICES and the ability to recruit young scientists into ICES activities. Funds also will help to insure that the academic community is well represented, balancing the strong input of U.S. governmental science, primarily through NOAA.
