Scientists are increasingly called upon to explain their research to the public, to elected officials and to members of the media. Giving presentations to a general audience requires skills that are different from those required to give a scientific presentation. Three workshops will be organized each year at scientific conferences in 2020 and 2021 to provide scientists with the opportunity to learn how to communicate with the public and other general audiences. The following workshops will be organized at the February 2020 Aquatic Sciences Meeting run by the Association for the Science of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO) and two other oceanographic societies and the February 2021 Ocean Sciences Meeting run by ASLO: 1. Science communication workshop - small group hands-on sessions where pre-registered participants will be given guidance in improved communication skills to use with lay public, elected officials, and media.2. Interdisciplinary presentation workshop - a workshop where oral presentations will be critiqued in a generic sense to help promote presentations more accessible to broad aquatic science audiences beyond the specific expertise of the presenter.3. A workshop, titled: How and why do you attempt public outreach? that will address various goals of public outreach.Members of the aquatic sciences community are increasing interested in learning how to improve their communication skills and present their work to the public. This effort will encourage the wider dissemination of information about NSF-supported research to the public and other audiences.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.

越来越多的科学家被要求向公众、民选官员和媒体解释他们的研究。给普通听众做演讲所需要的技巧与做科学演讲所需要的技巧不同。每年将在2020年和2021年的科学会议上组织三次研讨会，为科学家提供学习如何与公众和其他普通受众沟通的机会。2020年2月由湖沼学与海洋学科学协会（ASLO）和其他两个海洋学学会举办的水生科学会议，以及由ASLO举办的2021年2月海洋科学会议，将组织以下研讨会：科学传播研讨会——小组实践会议，预先登记的参与者将获得改进沟通技巧的指导，以便与非专业公众、民选官员和媒体使用。跨学科报告研讨会-口头报告将在一般意义上进行评论，以帮助促进报告更容易被广泛的水生科学观众所接受，而不是演讲者的特定专业知识。一个研讨会，题目是：你如何以及为什么尝试公众外展？这将解决公众宣传的各种目标。水生科学界的成员对学习如何提高他们的沟通技巧和向公众展示他们的工作越来越感兴趣。这一努力将鼓励更广泛地向公众和其他受众传播有关nsf支持的研究的信息。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。
