Collaborative on Oceanographic Chemical Analysis (COCA)

该项目将支持2013年在夏威夷大学举办的科学讲习班，该讲习班将汇集分析化学界和化学海洋学界的成员。研讨会的目标是促进这两个学科之间的合作，从而推动新的分析化学技术在化学海洋学领域的应用。 这些倡议者是各自领域的领导者，并确定了化学海洋学领域中一个日益扩大的重要差距，即需要培养下一代精通海水痕量分析化学的化学海洋学家。 拟议的讲习班将汇集分析化学应用于海洋环境问题方面的广泛专门知识，这对开发未来的海洋化学传感器和观测系统具有重要的广泛影响。

The project will support a science workshop at the University of Hawaii in 2013 that will bring together members of the analytical chemistry community and chemical oceanography community. The goal of the workshop is to foster collaboration between these two disciplines and thereby advance the application of novel analytical chemistry techniques to the field of chemical oceanography. The proponents are leaders in their respective fields and have identified an important and growing gap in the field of chemical oceanography; namely, the need to develop the next generation of chemical oceanographers that are skilled in the trace analytical chemistry of seawater. The proposed workshop will bring together a broad range of expertise in the application of analytical chemistry to marine environmental problems, which has important broader implications in regards to developing future marine chemical sensors and observing systems.
