This proposal requests funds to partially support the participation of US early career scientists (within 7 years of earning a Ph.D.) and graduate students at the XVIII International Union for Quaternary Research Congress. The participants supported by this grant will be provided the opportunity to present their research at the Congress, to develop international collaborations, and gain knowledge of global research initiatives. The proposal presents a clear plan for advertisement of this funding opportunity, including outreach to a wide range of disciplines and institutions and members of under-represented groups. Proposal sets out clear criteria on which to select the award recipients.The United States is a world leader in Quaternary research and continued participation by young U.S. scientists it is vital to sustain this leadership. The XVIII INQUA Congress is a key multidisciplinary forum for the exchange of scientific information and ideas and based on feedback from previous travel award recipients, this is an effective venue to inspire and encourage U.S. students and early career scientists to effectively address problems with global impact. Effective U.S. participation in this congress will build international science partnerships and foster future international collaborations to address problems that are far greater than the United States can address on its own. This proposal will contribute to the advancement of science in Quaternary Research and will promote the professional development of US early career scientists in an international forum.

该提案要求资金部分支持美国早期职业科学家（获得博士学位后7年内）的参与。第18届国际第四纪研究联合会大会的研究生。由该补助金支持的参与者将有机会在大会上展示他们的研究，发展国际合作，并获得全球研究计划的知识。该提案提出了宣传这一供资机会的明确计划，包括与广泛的学科和机构以及代表性不足的群体的成员进行外联。美国是第四纪研究领域的世界领导者，美国年轻科学家的持续参与对保持这一领导地位至关重要。 第十八届INQUA大会是一个重要的多学科论坛，用于交流科学信息和思想，并根据以前旅行奖获得者的反馈，这是一个有效的场所，可以激励和鼓励美国学生和早期职业科学家有效地解决具有全球影响力的问题。 美国有效地参与这次大会将建立国际科学伙伴关系，促进未来的国际合作，以解决远远超出美国自身能力的问题。 该提案将有助于第四纪研究的科学进步，并将促进美国早期职业科学家在国际论坛上的专业发展。
