This proposal will support a symposium entitled "New Frontiers in Antarctic Marine Biology" at the 2020Society of Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) meeting will be held 3-7 January in Austin,Texas. SICB has approximately 3000 members whose research interests span a wide range of biologicaltopics and their annual meetings are widely advertised and attended. Topical areas will include, amongothers, the recent dramatic ecological impacts of climate changes across multiple trophic levels inAntarctic seas, advances in molecular and physiological aspects of cold adaptation in marine algae,invertebrates, and fish, the role of chemical ecology in structuring nearshore macroalgal-mesograzerinteractions in communities of the Antarctic Peninsula, revising phylogeographic patterns in Antarctica inthe age of 'omics,' and advances in the use of biogeochemical markers to track diets and movement ofAntarctic marine predators.The unique marine environment of Antarctica provides an exciting opportunity to showcase a broadlybased symposium on aspects of the biology of its rich and diverse marine life. Not only are the topics inthe proposed symposium timely and to be presented by leaders in the field, they will encompass cuttingedge science, novel techniques, and future directions. The presentations will be of pertinence to biologists(graduate students, post-docs, and research faculty) working in temperate and tropical marineenvironments, as well as polar marine environmentsThis 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.

这项提议将支持将于1月3日至7日在得克萨斯州奥斯汀举行的2020年综合和比较生物学学会(SICB)会议上举行的题为“南极海洋生物学的新前沿”的研讨会。SICB有大约3000名成员，他们的研究兴趣涵盖了广泛的生物学主题，他们的年度会议得到了广泛的宣传和参加。除其他外，主题领域将包括：最近南极海域多个营养级别的气候变化的戏剧性生态影响，海藻、无脊椎动物和鱼类冷适应的分子和生理方面的进展，化学生态学在构建南极半岛群落近岸大型藻类-中级藻类相互作用中的作用，修改“组学”时代南极的系统地理格局，以及使用生物地球化学标记物跟踪南极海洋捕食者的食物和运动的进展。南极洲独特的海洋环境提供了一个令人兴奋的机会，展示其丰富和多样化的海洋生物的生物学方面的广泛的研讨会。拟议中的研讨会的主题不仅及时，而且将由该领域的领导者提出，它们将涵盖尖端科学、新技术和未来方向。这些报告将对在温带和热带海洋环境以及极地海洋环境工作的生物学家(研究生、博士后和研究人员)具有针对性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
