REU Site: Student Research in Oceanography and Marine Sciences at BIOS

该奖项为百慕大海洋科学研究所(BIOS)的本科生研究体验(REU)现场项目提供新的资金。REU网站为本科生提供实践研究体验。学生在各种海洋和开放海洋科学主题的基础上进行独立的研究项目，从分子到宏观尺度的过程。许多研究项目都属于在国际海底科学理事会实施的众多长期深海计划的框架内，这些计划包括“S”水电站、百慕大大西洋时间序列研究、微生物观测站、海洋通量计划以及海洋碳与气候变化计划。学生还有机会专注于近岸过程(例如，水和空气污染、珊瑚礁生态、海洋生物多样性)、海洋与人类健康计划中的主题(例如癌症和老龄化)以及风险预测倡议中的主题(例如海洋：基于大气的灾难模型，例如用于预测飓风和/或强降雨事件的模型)。学生每周参加活动(例如，REU学生研讨会、参观水族馆和生物保护/恢复地点)，并经常与R/V大西洋探险者号上的生物多样性科学家会合。由于基本输入输出系统是一个小校园，罗伊斯大学的学生有足够的机会结识教职员工。Bios在秋季学期有许多活跃的教学计划，以确保学生群体多样化，其中包括参加长达一学期的课程的美国学生以及美国、加拿大和英国的访问大学团体。作为POGO观测海洋学英才中心的一部分，REU的学生还有机会与来自发展中国家的海洋科学专业的学生合作。在计划结束时，REU的学生向基本输入输出系统的工作人员介绍他们的工作，并以适合发表每个项目的期刊的格式撰写手稿。NSF提供的支持包括学生津贴、学生往返现场的旅费、学生住宿和餐饮以及一些行政费用。

This award provides renewed funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site program at the Bermuda Institute for Ocean Sciences (BIOS). The REU Site provides hands-on research experiences for undergraduates. Students conduct independent research projects based on a variety of marine and open ocean science topics ranging from the molecular to macro scale processes. Many of the research projects fall within the framework of the numerous long-term deep ocean programs conducted at BIOS including Hydrostation 'S', the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS), the Microbial Observatory, the Ocean Flux Program (OFP), and the Ocean Carbon and Climate Change Program. Students also have opportunities to focus on near-shore processes (e.g., water and air pollution, coral reef ecology, marine biodiversity), topics within the Oceans and Human Health Program (e.g., cancer and aging), and topics within the Risk Prediction Initiative (e.g., ocean:atmosphere-based catastrophe models such as those used to predict hurricanes and/or intense rainfall events). Students participate in weekly activities (e.g., REU student seminars, visits to the aquarium and biological conservation/restoration sites) and frequently join BIOS scientists aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer. Since BIOS is a small campus, REU students have ample opportunity to get to know faculty/staff. BIOS has many active teaching programs during Fall semester that ensure a diverse student population that includes US students taking semester-long courses as well as US, Canadian, and UK visiting university groups. REU students also have opportunities to work with ocean science students from developing countries as part of the POGO Centre of Excellence in Observational Oceanography. At program end, REU students present a seminar of their work to BIOS staff and write manuscripts in the format of a journal appropriate for publication of each project. Support provided by NSF includes funding for student stipends, student travel to and from the site, student housing and meals and some administrative costs.
