项目摘要

The Dauphin Island Sea Laboratory (DISL) located on Dauphin Island, AL in the northern Gulf of Mexico, will host a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The program will bring eight undergraduates each summer to DISL to conduct independent research projects with the guidance of research mentors. The program will provide a strong integration of field and lab-based studies across disciplines and proximity to a range of ecosystems. In addition to independent research in marine science, students will participate in a series of seminars, field trips, and enrichment activities designed to develop the skills critical to a career in science. Students will present a final poster at a formal symposium, with the goal of contributing to a peer-reviewed paper and presenting their work at a scientific meeting following the summer internship. The theme of the DISL REU program is understanding the marine and estuarine ecosystems and living resources of the Gulf of Mexico, including research topics such as benthic ecology, fisheries and marine mammal ecology, toxicology, and biological, chemical, and physical oceanography. The program will conduct a national search for applicants and seeks to engage students who are from schools with limited research opportunities, particularly those in the Gulf Coast region. Most of the funding provided supports student stipends, housing and travel to attend the program. The Rutgers REU Site will provide a total of twenty-four undergraduates with internships over the three-year period. 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.

位于墨西哥湾北方的阿拉巴马州多芬岛的多芬岛海洋实验室（DISL）将举办本科生研究经验（REU）计划。该计划将带来八个本科生每年夏天到DISL进行独立的研究项目与研究导师的指导。该计划将提供跨学科和接近一系列生态系统的实地和实验室研究的强大整合。除了在海洋科学的独立研究，学生将参加一系列的研讨会，实地考察，并旨在开发关键的技能，在科学生涯的丰富活动。学生将在正式的研讨会上提交最终海报，目的是为同行评审的论文做出贡献，并在暑期实习后的科学会议上展示他们的工作。DISL REU计划的主题是了解墨西哥湾的海洋和河口生态系统和生物资源，包括底栖生态学，渔业和海洋哺乳动物生态学，毒理学以及生物，化学和物理海洋学等研究课题。该计划将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，特别是墨西哥湾沿岸地区的学生。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。罗格斯大学REU网站将在三年内提供24名本科生实习。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。
