International Council for Exploration of the Sea: Travel Support for Academic Participants, 2019-2022

国际海洋勘探委员会（ICES）成立于1902年。它是一个著名的政府间组织，就北大西洋及邻近海域的海洋资源进行科学研究并提供管理建议。美国自1912年以来一直是ICES的成员。随着过度捕捞、气候变化的影响、生物多样性的丧失、海洋酸化、有害藻华和水产养殖对生态系统的影响等全球性问题的出现，美国在ICES中的作用变得更加重要，这些问题已经成为国际关注的焦点，需要协调研究项目。年度科学会议，其工作组和讲习班，专题讨论会，主题会议和培训计划。年轻和有成就的科学家的申请将被考虑，以确保美国学术界在ICES活动中的强大代表性。为美国学术科学家参加国际空间站活动提供支持。ICES是在北大西洋地区开展和协调海洋科学的主要政府间组织。ICES是一个由来自20个成员国的700多个海洋研究所的5000多名科学家组成的网络。其使命是促进和分享对海洋生态系统及其提供的服务的科学理解，并利用这些知识为实现保护、管理和可持续发展目标提供最先进的建议。他们的工作重点是北大西洋，但也包括北极、地中海和黑海。美国学术科学家参与ICES活动将提高我们开发和利用观测海洋生态系统的新技术和技术的能力；并促进我们对它们的结构、功能和动力学的理解。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

The International Council for Exploration of the Sea (ICES) was founded in 1902. It is a prominent intergovernmental organization that conducts science and provides management advice on marine resources in the North Atlantic and neighboring seas. The United States has been a member of ICES since 1912. The US role in ICES has become more important as global concerns related to overfishing, effects of climate change, loss of biodiversity, ocean acidification, harmful algal blooms, and effects of aquaculture on ecosystems have become international in scale and requiring coordinated research programs. Annual Science Conference, its Working Groups and Workshops, Symposia, Theme Sessions, and Training Programs. Applications by young and established scientists will be considered to assure strong representation by the U.S. academic community in ICES activities.Support is provided for U.S. academic scientists to participate ICES activities. ICES is the leading intergovernmental organization conducting and coordinating marine science in the North Atlantic region. ICES is a network of more than 5,000 scientists from over 700 marine institutes in 20-member countries. Its mission is to advance and share scientific understanding of marine ecosystems and the services they provide and to use this knowledge to generate state-of-the-art advice for meeting conservation, management, and sustainability goals. Their work focuses on the North Atlantic, but also includes the Arctic, Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea. The participation of U.S. academic scientists in ICES activities will advance our ability to develop and harness new techniques and technologies for observing marine ecosystems; and advance our understanding of their structure, function, and dynamics.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.
