A workshop to discuss attrition of women in the academic ocean sciences leadership pipeline: Washington, D.C., 2020

海洋领导联盟（COL）将举办一个研讨会，重点讨论海洋科学领域终身教职和终身教职中女性的代表性问题。考虑到过去二十年中获得海洋科学博士学位的女性比例，海洋科学教师职位上的女性人数低于预期。讲习班将邀请学术机构的代表审查和讨论关于妇女在海洋科学从博士到终身教授的各级任职情况的现有数据，审议影响妇女在学术生涯方面的经历和决定的因素，并确定是否需要对这些因素进行进一步调查。该研讨会将于2019年底在华盛顿特区的COL总部举行，约有22人参加。作为本次讲习班的成果，海洋研究中心将提供一份关于妇女在海洋科学工作人员中所占比例的现有数据分析报告，数据分析结果和讲习班提出的建议将发表在一份主要的海洋学杂志上。本次研讨会将支持美国国家科学基金会确保科学工作队伍多样化的目标。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 Consortium on Ocean Leadership (COL) will host a workshop to focus on the issues surrounding the representation of women in tenure-track and tenured faculty positions in the ocean sciences. Given the percentage of women receiving doctorates in ocean sciences for the last two decades, the number of women in these faculty positions in the ocean sciences is lower than expected. The workshop will invite representatives of academic institutions to review and discuss the available data on the representation of women at various levels in the ocean science doctorate-to-tenured-faculty pipeline, to consider the factors that influence women's experiences and decisions related to academic careers, and to determine if further investigation into these factors is needed. The workshop will be held at COL headquarters in Washington, DC with about twenty-two participants in late 2019. As a deliverable for this workshop, COL will provide an analysis of available data on the representation of women in the ocean sciences workforce, and results of the data analysis and recommendations from the workshop will be published in a major oceanographic journal. This workshop will support NSF goals of ensuring a diverse 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.
