CBET-1346372Paul TratnyekGordon ResearchThis project supports the Gordon Research Conference on Environmental Sciences:Water to be held June 22-27, 2014. This year, the unifying theme will be Environmental Sciences in a Human-Impacted World. The conference will bring together participants in an informal setting, for a program of plenary talks by established and emerging scientists to discuss frontier aquatic sciences research that explores how human alterations of the environment influence critical processes from the molecular to the landscape scale. The scope will span multiple disciplines (chemistry, biology, geology, engineering, health science), media (soil, groundwater, surface water, atmospheric water, drinking water, wastewater), and scales (molecular, nano, cellular, ecosystem, global). Session topics will examine contaminant fates, redox transitions, aquatic organic matter, consumptive water use, treatment and release, advanced analytical and computational tools, human and ecosystem health, and science communication. These formal sessions will be complemented by poster sessions that integrate scientists at all career stages, including graduate and post-doctoral researchers, in scientific discussions. Together, the organizational format of this conference will advance the overall goal of facilitating more effective communication and integration of ideas between scientific disciplines and will contribute to the identification of new approaches for solving important problems affecting water quality.The provision of clean water for all uses requires integrated solutions drawn from multiple disciplines in a broader framework of environmental policy. The conference advances discovery while promoting teaching, training, and learning by offering a platform for graduate student and postdoctoral researchers to present their research and participate fully in the conference activities. The conference format provides and unusual and ideal means for the dissemination of research results, through close interaction of participants from industry, government laboratories, and academia. Finally, the conference promotes broad participation from a diverse background, both through the speaker selection and through special GRC funding mechanisms that target underrepresented groups.

CBET-1346372Paul TratnyekGordon Research该项目支持将于 2014 年 6 月 22 日至 27 日举行的戈登环境科学研究会议：水。今年的统一主题将是受人类影响的世界中的环境科学。 会议将以非正式的方式聚集参与者，由知名科学家和新兴科学家举行全体会议，讨论前沿水生科学研究，探索人类对环境的改变如何影响从分子到景观尺度的关键过程。范围将跨越多个学科（化学、生物学、地质学、工程、健康科学）、介质（土壤、地下水、地表水、大气水、饮用水、废水）和尺度（分子、纳米、细胞、生态系统、全球）。 会议主题将探讨污染物的命运、氧化还原转变、水生有机物、消耗水的利用、处理和排放、先进的分析和计算工具、人类和生态系统健康以及科学传播。这些正式会议将辅以海报会议，将各个职业阶段的科学家（包括研究生和博士后研究人员）纳入科学讨论中。总之，本次会议的组织形式将推进促进科学学科之间更有效的交流和思想整合的总体目标，并将有助于确定解决影响水质的重要问题的新方法。为各种用途提供清洁水需要在更广泛的环境政策框架内从多个学科中得出综合解决方案。该会议通过为研究生和博士后研究人员提供一个展示其研究成果并充分参与会议活动的平台，在促进教学、培训和学习的同时促进发现。通过来自工业界、政府实验室和学术界的参与者的密切互动，会议形式为传播研究成果提供了不寻常且理想的方式。最后，会议通过演讲者的选择和针对代表性不足群体的特殊 GRC 资助机制，促进不同背景的广泛参与。
