RAPID: Training Chief Scientists for the Ocean Research of Tomorrow

为了应对最近对联合国海上安全联盟设施的需求下降，提议在一艘中级通用研究船上设立两个独立的首席科学家培训邮轮，作为论坛，教授早期职业海洋科学家如何有效地规划、获取、利用和报告海上时间，进行多学科研究和教育活动。该计划的智力优势将来自给予新调查员的机会，以测试令人信服的研究想法，合作工作，使用设备，并获取对未来海洋实地计划至关重要的样本。更广泛的影响是，多达28名新调查人员将接受领先考察海洋研究机制的培训，同时了解海洋研究基础设施是如何安排、维护和升级的。他们还将接触到适用于各种海洋学学科(例如，物理、化学、生物和地质海洋学)的一套标准观测，激发研究的新想法，并向公众传递科学信息。

In response to a recent decline in requests for UNOLS facilities, two separate Chief ScientistTraining Cruises are proposed on an Intermediate General Purpose Research Vessel to serveas forums for teaching early career marine scientists how to effectively plan for, acquire,utilize and report on time at sea for multi-disciplinary research and educational activities.The intellectual merit of this program will develop from opportunities given to new investigatorsto test compelling research ideas, work collaboratively, use equipment, and acquire samplescritical for developing future oceanographic field programs.The broader impacts are that as many as 28 new investigators will be trained in the mechanicsof leading expeditionary ocean research while coming to understand how oceanographic researchinfrastructure is scheduled, maintained and upgraded. They will also be exposed to standardsets of observations appropriate to a variety of oceanographic disciplines (e.g., physical,chemical, biological and geological oceanography) inspiring new ideas for research and thetransfer of science information to the public.
