Travel Support for Students to attend the ICS-NSF Vouchering the Stratigraphic Record Workshop and the Second International Congress on StratigraphyDena Smith, Geological Society of AmericaThis award will provide partial support for the international travel of 10 US graduate and post-doc, stratigraphers to attend the Second International Congress on Stratigraphy (STRATI 2015) and the ICS-NSF Workshop - Vouchering the Stratigraphic Record (VSR) in Graz, Austria from 19-25 July 2015. It is expected that more than 800 stratigraphers and sedimentologists from around the globe will attend STRATI 2015. The ICS-NSF Vouchering the Stratigraphic Record Workshop will bring together a group of international researchers and students to work on ways to synthesize and make available stratigraphic data from around the world. Those selected to receive travel support will be chosen from across the stratigraphic sciences, ensuring that a diverse group of graduate students and early professionals have the opportunity to attend and present their research results. Stratigraphy is a vibrant discipline that includes such currently relevant topics as geochronology, cyclostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy, tectono-stratigraphy, astronomical tuning, natural resource exploration and development, etc., all of which are needed to develop a detailed understanding of the history of the earth, its sedimentary crust, life, paleoenvironments, and anthropogenic impact. The STEPPE coordinating office, in collaboration with the American Geosciences Institute (AGI), Geological Society of America (GSA), the Society for Sedimentary Geology (SEPM), and the Paleontological Society (PS) will read and evaluate applications, ensuring that there is equal representation from across the disciplines and that there is balance in terms of gender and participation by those from underrepresented groups. Such participation in the 2nd International Congress on Stratigraphy and the ICS-NSF Vouchering the Stratigraphic Record workshop will uniquely contribute to the earth sciences because it will bring together a cross section of stratigraphers and sedimentary geologists from around the world, of all career stages, to share their research methods, findings and experiences in the field. This will lead to new opportunities for collaboration and the creation of novel approaches to studying our world.

赴奥地利格拉茨参加第二届国际地层学大会（2015年7月19日至25日）和ICS-NSF研讨会（VSR）的10名美国研究生和博士后地层学工作者将获得部分旅费支持。预计将有800多名来自世界各地的地层学家和沉积学家参加STRATI 2015。ICS-NSF地层记录认证研讨会将汇集一群国际研究人员和学生，共同研究如何综合和提供来自世界各地的地层数据。获得旅行支持的人员将从地层学各个领域中挑选，以确保不同群体的研究生和早期专业人士有机会参加并展示他们的研究成果。地层学是一门充满活力的学科，它包括地质年代学、旋回地层学、岩石地层学、层序地层学、构造地层学、天文校正、自然资源勘探与开发等当前相关的主题，所有这些都需要对地球的历史、沉积地壳、生命、古环境和人为影响有一个详细的了解。STEPPE协调办公室与美国地球科学研究所（AGI）、美国地质学会（GSA）、沉积地质学会（SEPM）和古生物学会（PS）合作，将阅读和评估申请，确保各学科有平等的代表性，并在性别和代表性不足群体的参与方面保持平衡。参加第二届国际地层学大会和ICS-NSF地层记录认证研讨会将对地球科学做出独特的贡献，因为它将汇集来自世界各地的地层学家和沉积地质学家，分享他们在该领域的研究方法、发现和经验。这将带来新的合作机会，并创造新的方法来研究我们的世界。
