This is a request to support the participation of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from U.S. institutions in the 2020 Geobiology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) that will bring together scientists from across the globe to Galveston, TX between January 12 to 17, 2020. The field of geobiology investigates the coevolution of life and the environment over Earth history, including studies of life and the environment today and the title of this conference is "The evolution of a living planet: Outstanding and emerging questions in the field of Geobiology". Over the past decade, the field of geobiology has produced a strong cohort of scientists who greatly benefit from a meeting of their own to exchange ideas, tools, and expertise. The Graduate Research Seminar (GRS), a two-day meeting for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, will immediately precede the GRC and give early career scientists an opportunity to organize and participate in focused meetings. GRC and GRS actively promote diversity and request that researchers share the latest and greatest ideas and questions during the poster and discussion sessions. Because the attendances of GRC and GRS, respectively, are limited to 200 and 60 people, respectively, these meetings will stimulate thoughtful and engaging discussions and spontaneous interactions as well as offering numerous networking opportunities for junior scientists. By supporting the attendance of GRS and GRC by graduate students and postdoctoral scholars from the U.S., the requested funding will strengthen the sense of community, train junior scientists, promote collaboration and diversity in the field. Geobiology uses the tools of paleontology, geology, geochemistry and microbiology, but is separated from these more traditional disciplines by an interest in the complex relationships and feedbacks among biological, chemical, and physical processes. The scientific programs for Geobiology GRC and GRS 2020 will investigate interactions among biological, chemical and physical processes on Earth?s surface in daily poster sessions and oral sessions, each with two or three invited speakers and a discussion leader. These sessions will highlight open questions, novel experimental and conceptual approaches and active areas of research within the field. Both meetings will encourage open and honest intellectual debate and ask each session chair to encourage rigorous analysis of all science presented or discussed in a manner respectful to all conferees. GRC and the preceding GRS will offer numerous opportunities to socialize and network for early career scientists. These interactions will advance discovery, disseminate results, and train attendees in methods, approaches and presentation skills.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.

这是一个请求，以支持来自美国的研究生和博士后研究员的参与机构在2020年地球生物学戈登研究会议（GRC），将汇集来自世界各地的科学家地球仪到加尔维斯顿，得克萨斯州之间的2020年1月12日至17日。地球生物学领域研究地球历史上生命和环境的共同进化，包括对当今生命和环境的研究，本次会议的标题是“生命星球的进化：地球生物学领域的突出和新兴问题”。在过去的十年中，地球生物学领域已经产生了一批强大的科学家，他们从自己的会议中受益匪浅，交流思想，工具和专业知识。研究生研究研讨会（GRS）是研究生和博士后学者为期两天的会议，将在GRC之前立即举行，并为早期职业科学家提供组织和参加重点会议的机会。GRC和GRS积极促进多样性，并要求研究人员在海报和讨论会上分享最新和最伟大的想法和问题。由于GRC和GRS的出席人数分别限制为200人和60人，这些会议将激发深思熟虑和引人入胜的讨论和自发的互动，并为年轻科学家提供众多的网络机会。通过支持来自美国的研究生和博士后学者参加GRS和GRC，申请的资金将加强社区意识，培训年轻科学家，促进该领域的合作和多样性。地球生物学使用古生物学，地质学，地球化学和微生物学的工具，但与这些更传统的学科分开，对生物，化学和物理过程之间的复杂关系和反馈感兴趣。地球生物学GRC和GRS 2020的科学计划将研究地球上生物，化学和物理过程之间的相互作用。在每日的海报会议和口头会议上，每个会议都有两到三个受邀发言人和一个讨论领导人。这些会议将突出开放的问题，新的实验和概念方法和研究领域内的活跃领域。这两次会议都将鼓励公开和诚实的学术辩论，并要求每一届会议主席鼓励以尊重所有与会者的方式对所有提出或讨论的科学进行严格的分析。GRC和之前的GRS将为早期职业科学家提供许多社交和网络的机会。这些互动将促进发现，传播结果，并在方法，途径和演示技巧方面培训与会者。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得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来支持。
