REU Site: Fall Semester Marine Science Research in Bermuda

百慕大海洋科学研究所（BIOS）的研究人员每年秋季学期指导八名本科生研究经验（REU）学生，同时他们进行独立的研究项目。学生根据从分子到宏观尺度过程的各种海洋和开放海洋科学主题进行独立研究项目。许多学生的研究项目都属于BIOS进行的众多长期气候相关项目的框架，包括“S”水电站、百慕大大西洋时间序列研究（BATS）、海洋微生物观测站和海洋碳和气候变化项目。学生们经常有机会在R/V大西洋探险者号上加入BIOS的科学家们。其他学生的研究机会集中在近岸过程，如水和空气污染、珊瑚礁生态学、海洋生物多样性、分子生物学、气候和灾难模型，如用于预测飓风和/或强降雨事件和洪水的模型。许多项目为学生提供了参与水肺和小船活动的机会，作为他们培训的一部分。BIOS有一个积极的教学计划，以确保多样化的学生群体，REU的学生因此有机会与来自发展中国家的海洋科学学生互动，作为BIOS卓越观测海洋学中心的一部分，也有机会与许多来自美国和英国的访问学生互动。REU学生向BIOS工作人员和访客介绍他们工作的最后一次研讨会，并以适合发表所进行的具体研究项目的期刊格式撰写手稿。资金用于学生前往现场的旅行，宿舍住宿和膳食，学生津贴和一些学生研究支持。

Researchers at the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) mentor eight undergraduate Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) students each year in the Fall semester while they conduct independent research projects. Students conduct independent research projects based on a wide variety of marine and open-ocean science topics ranging from the molecular to macro scale processes. Many of the student research projects fall within the framework of the numerous long-term, climate-related programs conducted at BIOS, including Hydrostation "S", the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS), the Marine Microbial Observatory, and the Ocean Carbon and Climate Change Program. Students often have the opportunity to join BIOS scientists aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer. Other student research opportunities focus on near-shore processes such as water and air pollution, coral reef ecology, marine biodiversity, molecular biology, and climate and catastrophe models, such as those used to predict hurricanes and/or intense rainfall events and flooding. Many projects provide the chance for students to engage in SCUBA and small boat activities as part of their training. BIOS has an active teaching program that insures a diverse student population, and REU students thus have opportunities to interact with marine science students from developing countries as part of the BIOS Centre of Excellence in Observational Oceanography and also with many visiting students from the USA and UK. REU students present a final seminar of their work to BIOS staff and visitors, and write manuscripts in the format of a journal appropriate for publication of the specific research project conducted. Funding provides for student travel to the site, dormatory housing and meals, a student stipend, and some student research support.
