Assessing Proxies, Strategies, Technologies and Drilling Targets to Constrain the History of the Greenland Ice Sheet

该奖项将支持约10名学生和博士后研究人员参加一个研讨会，重点是制定战略，以更好地了解格陵兰冰盖的历史。研讨会将于2011年秋季在俄勒冈州科瓦利斯举行，届时将有来自冰川学、古海洋学、海洋地质学和气候模型等领域的国际代表参加。该基金为年轻科学家提供了参与跨学科研究并做出贡献的机会，这些研究最终可能会通过综合海洋钻探计划（Integrated Ocean drilling program）开展大规模钻探项目。参与的机会将在广泛提供的通讯和纪律电子邮件列表中进行广告宣传。参与者的支持将基于申请人的目的陈述，并将针对代表性不足的群体。

This award will support the participation of ~10 students and postdoctoral researchers in a workshop focusing on developing strategies to achieve better understanding of the history of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The workshop will be held in the fall of 2011 in Corvallis, OR, and will include international representation in the fields of glaciology, paleoceanography, marine geology, and climate modeling. Funding provides the opportunity for young scientists to get involved with and contribute to an interdisciplinary effort that may eventually lead to a large-scale drilling program through the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program. The opportunity for participation will be advertised in widely available newsletters and through disciplinary email listservs. Participant support will be based on applicants' statements of purpose and will target under-represented groups.
