Permeable media are materials that allow fluids to pass through them and they are everywhere in our natural and built environment. The flow of fluids through permeable materials and how they transport reactants determines vital aspect of our own physiology, the functioning of many ecosystems, the generation and extraction of natural resources, and many industrial processes. As such the field is very broad and highly interdisciplinary with participation from a variety of engineers, physicists, chemists, geoscientists, hydrologists and biologists. The field of Flow and Transport in Permeable Media aims to improve our fundamental understanding of these complex systems and apply it to broad range of societal problems. The goal of the proposed work is to sponsor a meeting as part of the Gordon Research Conferences on Flow and Transport in Permeable Media. The meeting will be held in Les Diablerets, Switzerland, June 19-24, 2020. A significant number of the participants will be U.S. researchers, and 2/3 of the meeting participants are early stage investigators (graduate students, postdoctoral associates, and early stage professors). Gordon Research Conferences are week-long immersive experiences in which cutting edge, unpublished science is presented, with long question and answer periods, poster session, discussion of science over meals, and social engagement between sessions. This particular meeting will also have a Gordon Research Seminar, two days before the main meeting, for solely graduate students and postdoctoral associates to present their work. In all, the meeting is designed to address the important ideas and concepts in the field of Flow and Transport in Permeable Media by international leaders in the field, with significant participation a new generation of scientists. The interdisciplinary field of Flow and Transport in Porous Media focuses on developing a fundamental understanding of wide range of natural and engineered permeable media and the complex multi-phase flow, reactive transport, and deformation processes within them. The field is crucial to subsurface energy recovery and storage, hydrology, soil science, and represents a core focus of research activity of several programs at the National Science Foundation. Planned sessions include Mixing dynamics, Multi-phase flows, CO2 sequestration, Micro-scale fluid dynamics, Innovative sensors, Biochemical processes, Hydromechanics, and Flow and transport in ice. The meeting will focus on the fundamental challenges in Flow and Transport in Permeable Media. This proposal is to support the registration of 35 participants in the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Flow and Transport in Permeable Media. The format and structure of the GRC is designed for immersion of scientists into new and emerging concepts in Flow and Transport in Permeable Media – with an emphasis on breaking results and unpublished data - though long question and answer periods, interactive discussion over meals, significant poster sessions and social activities between sessions. This particular meeting will also have a Gordon Research Seminar, two days before the main meeting, for solely graduate students and post-doctoral associates to present their work. The emphasis on early stage investigators and underrepresented groups will significantly enhance the broader impact of this meeting.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.

可渗透介质是允许流体通过的材料，它们在我们的自然和建筑环境中无处不在。流体通过可渗透材料的流动以及它们如何运输反应物决定了我们自身生理学的重要方面，许多生态系统的功能，自然资源的产生和提取以及许多工业过程。因此，该领域是非常广泛和高度跨学科的参与，从各种工程师，物理学家，化学家，地球科学家，水文学家和生物学家。可渗透介质中的流动和传输领域旨在提高我们对这些复杂系统的基本理解，并将其应用于广泛的社会问题。拟议工作的目标是赞助一次会议，作为戈登研究会议的一部分，在可渗透介质中的流动和运输。会议将于2020年6月19日至24日在瑞士Les Diablerets举行。相当数量的与会者将是美国研究人员，2/3的与会者是早期研究人员（研究生，博士后助理和早期教授）。戈登研究会议是为期一周的沉浸式体验，其中展示了尖端的未发表的科学，有很长的问答时间，海报会议，吃饭时的科学讨论，以及会议之间的社会参与。这个特别的会议也将有一个戈登研究研讨会，两天前的主要会议，仅研究生和博士后同事介绍他们的工作。总而言之，会议旨在解决该领域国际领导人在可渗透介质中流动和运输领域的重要思想和概念，新一代科学家的重要参与。 多孔介质中的流动和运输的跨学科领域的重点是发展广泛的自然和工程可渗透介质和复杂的多相流，反应运输和变形过程中的基本理解。该领域对地下能源回收和储存，水文学，土壤科学至关重要，并代表了美国国家科学基金会几个项目研究活动的核心重点。计划的会议包括混合动力学，多相流，CO2封存，微尺度流体动力学，创新传感器，生化过程，流体力学和冰中的流动和运输。会议将重点讨论可渗透介质中流动和传输的基本挑战。该提案是为了支持35名参与者在戈登研究会议（GRC）的流动和运输可渗透介质的注册。GRC的格式和结构旨在让科学家沉浸在可渗透介质中的流动和运输的新概念中-重点是突破性的结果和未发表的数据-通过长时间的问答，用餐时的互动讨论，重要的海报会议和会议之间的社交活动。这个特别的会议也将有一个戈登研究研讨会，两天前的主要会议，仅研究生和博士后同事介绍他们的工作。对早期研究人员和代表性不足的群体的重视将显著增强本次会议的广泛影响。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。
