Supplemental funds to enhance U.S. student participation at River Flow 2016

该奖项将促进研究生出席在圣路易斯大学举行的2016年国际河流水力学会议（河流流量）。研究生参与的增加将为会议注入早期职业科学家的观点，并为他们提供交流机会。本次会议通过将工业界和学术界的团体聚集在一起，加强了研究和教育的基础设施。它还促进了科学家之间的国际合作。国际河流水力学会议由国际水文环境工程与研究协会于2002年成立。它涵盖了河流研究的一系列主题。这些主题与NSF地貌与土地利用动力学计划和水文科学计划都相关。促进早期职业科学家参加本次会议将促进这些项目招募和培训下一代地貌学家和水文学家的目标。

This award will facilitate the attendance of graduate students to the InternationalConference of Fluvial Hydraulics (River Flow) 2016 being held at Saint Louis University. Increased graduate student participation will infuse the perspectives of early career scientists into the conference and provide them with networking opportunities. This conference enhances the infrastructure for research and education by bringing together groups from industry and academia. It also promotes international collaboration among scientists. The International Conference of Fluvial Hydraulics was established in 2002 by the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research. It covers a range of topics in fluvial research. These topics are relevant to both the NSF Geomorphology and Land-use Dynamics Program and the Hydrological Sciences Program. Promoting the attendance of early career scientists to this conference will advance the goal of these programs to recruit and train the next generation of geomorphologists and hydrologists.
