Travel Support for U.S. Investigators to Attend South Pacific Observing Workshop

该奖项由国际科学与工程办公室(OISE)支持，将使美国学术海洋学家能够参加美国和智利之间的项目开发研讨会。这次研讨会的中心目标是让美国和智利的海洋研究专家汇聚一堂。预计该讲习班将促进来自学术界、智利海军水文和海洋管理局(SHOA)和国家海洋学委员会的智利科学家与来自海军研究实验室、国家海洋和大气管理局的美国科学家以及学术界之间的互动。就学术价值而言，研讨会将为美国和智利科学家之间提供一个协调和合作的机会，这些科学家对智利新船上的海洋研究感兴趣。此外，由于美国科学家经常与智利科学家就南大洋、东太平洋和三合一地区的海洋巡航活动进行协调，此次研讨会将使感兴趣的利益攸关方能够面对面地会面，确定未来在科学、物流和船舶设施方面的优先事项。

This award, to be supported by the Office of International Sciences and Engineering (OISE), will enable the participation of U.S. academic oceanographers in a program development workshop between the US and Chile. The central goal of this workshop is to bring together individuals for the US and Chile who are experts on oceanographic research in the eastern South Pacific. It is expected that this workshop will facilitate interactions between Chilean scientists from academia, the Chilean Navy Hydrographic and Oceanographic Service (SHOA), and the National Oceanographic Committee, and US scientists from the Naval Research Laboratory, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and academia. In terms of intellectual merit, the workshop will be provide an opportunity for coordination and collaboration between U.S. and Chilean scientists that are interested in oceanographic research aboard the new Chilean vessel, the Cabo de Hornos. In addition, as U.S. scientists often coordinate with Chilean scientists on ocean cruise activities in the Southern Ocean, Eastern Pacific, and Triple Junction areas, this workshop will enable interested stakeholders to meet face to face to set future priorities in science, logistics and ship facilities.
