This award provides renewed funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) of Columbia University. The program would provide 10 students with a 10-week active learning experience during the summer of 2013. The Global Databases and Geoscience theme focuses the intern experience on unsolved scientific problems in the earth and ocean sciences. The primary goal of the program is to teach students what research is like, so they can explore the career option of a research scientist. A subsidiary goal is to teach them about exciting forefront issues in earth and ocean sciences, so that they become cognizant of future opportunities. Students will work in LDEO's exciting research environment with over 120 PhD-level geoscientists. Each student will be mentored by one of these scientists, who will serve as research advisor. Funding is provided for student stipends, housing in dorm rooms, travel to and from the site, research supplies and some administative support.

该奖项为哥伦比亚大学Lamont-Doherty地球观测站（LDEO）的本科生研究经验（REU）项目提供了新的资助。该项目将在2013年夏季为10名学生提供为期10周的主动学习体验。全球数据库和地球科学主题将实习经验集中在地球和海洋科学中未解决的科学问题上。该计划的主要目标是教学生什么是研究，这样他们就可以探索研究科学家的职业选择。一个辅助目标是向他们传授地球和海洋科学中令人兴奋的前沿问题，以便他们认识到未来的机会。学生将在LDEO令人兴奋的研究环境中与120多名博士级地球科学家一起工作。每位学生将由其中一位科学家指导，他将担任研究顾问。资金用于学生津贴、宿舍住宿、往返现场、研究用品和一些行政支持。
