Research training for the next generation of marine scientists and oceanographers is an important focus for the Division of Ocean Sciences. Tomorrow's oceanographers require technological, interdisciplinary training that few undergraduates have experienced. Research Internships in Ocean Science (RIOS), the REU site hosted by the Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences at Rutgers University, is designed around mentors drawn from an internationally recognized faculty, high caliber research facilities, access to multiple coastal sites, a commitment to undergraduate hands-on research experiences, and strong programs in marine science and outreach. Through independent projects and team research experiences, students focus on process-oriented concepts and techniques applicable in any marine ecosystem. The Rutgers REU Site will provide a total of twenty-four undergraduates with internships over the two-year period. The goal of RIOS is to enable students interested in ocean sciences to participate in meaningful, interactive research directed by an enthusiastic, experienced group of mentors. Group activities and independent research are embedded within ongoing programs, many of which are focused on the New Jersey continental shelf and adjacent estuaries. At the beginning of each summer internship, a four-day orientation introduces students to ongoing research, focusing on the Raritan River-Raritan Bay and the Mullica River-Great Bay systems. The two estuaries provide a sharp contrast in their human impacts on coastal ecosystems. During the first week, students also consult with mentors, and attend workshops on how to formulate a research question and write a proposal. Students then begin research projects either at the main campus in New Brunswick, NJ or at the Rutgers University Marine Field Station (RUMFS) in Tuckerton, NJ. Students make oral progress reports of their research in a mid-program workshop, receive instruction on how to write up and analyze their data, and how to prepare a poster for the final poster session.Students will conduct independent research projects with the guidance of research mentors and will participate in a variety of professional development activities, including workshops on scientific ethics, scientific writing, the graduate school experience and career options, as well as field trips and outreach events. The program conducts a national search for applicants and seeks to engage students who are from schools with limited research opportunities. Most of the funding provided supports student stipends, housing and travel to attend the program. This project supports the national goals of developing the next generation of scientists and the scientific workforce.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

为下一代海洋科学家和海洋学家提供研究培训是海洋科学司的一个重要重点。未来的海洋学家需要技术，跨学科的培训，很少有本科生经历过。海洋科学研究实习（RIOS），由罗格斯大学海洋和海岸科学系主办的REU网站，围绕来自国际公认的教师，高素质的研究设施，访问多个沿海站点，致力于本科生实践研究经验以及海洋科学和外展的强大计划而设计。通过独立项目和团队研究经验，学生专注于适用于任何海洋生态系统的过程导向的概念和技术。罗格斯大学REU网站将提供一个为期两年的实习共二十四名本科生。RIOS的目标是使对海洋科学感兴趣的学生能够参与由一群热情、经验丰富的导师指导的有意义的互动研究。小组活动和独立研究是嵌入在正在进行的方案，其中许多是集中在新泽西大陆架和邻近的河口。在每个暑期实习开始时，为期四天的方向介绍学生正在进行的研究，重点是拉里坦河拉里坦湾和穆利卡河大海湾系统。这两个河口在人类对沿海生态系统的影响方面形成了鲜明的对比。在第一周，学生还咨询导师，并参加研讨会，就如何制定一个研究问题，并写一个建议。然后，学生开始研究项目，无论是在新玩法，新泽西州的主校区或在罗格斯大学海洋野外站（RUMFS）在塔克顿，新泽西州。学生在中期计划研讨会上口头报告他们的研究进展，接受如何撰写和分析数据的指导，以及如何为最后的海报会议准备海报。学生将在研究导师的指导下进行独立的研究项目，并将参加各种专业发展活动，包括科学道德，科学写作，研究生院的经验和职业选择，以及实地考察和外联活动。该计划在全国范围内寻找申请人，并寻求吸引来自研究机会有限的学校的学生。提供的大部分资金用于支持学生的助学金、住房和参加该项目的旅行。该项目支持培养下一代科学家和科学工作者的国家目标。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
