International Travel Funds for Foreign Participants to Attend the Summer, 1989 Gordon Research Conference on Chemical Oceanography in New Hampshire

在过去的二十年里，戈登化学海洋学研究会议为讨论、交流思想和信息提供了一个重要的论坛。将于1989年8月举行的戈登会议的中心主题是“海洋、大气、固体地球系统中的化学过程”。和前几年一样，1989年会议的目标之一是让几位外国科学家参与信息交流。他们在这些领域已经完成了重要的研究。该基金将为参加戈登化学海洋学研究会议的外国科学家提供国际旅行经费。这些人的参与将带来若干好处。将要讨论的大多数海洋地球化学研究题目都需要一个全球视角，这将受益于增加国际交流。外国科学家可以为参加会议的美国与会者带来新的见解和观点。因此，大约100名美国科学家将有机会与外国科学家建立个人交流。外国参与者将获得有关美国研究项目的深入信息。这将有利于他们的工作，并很可能导致扩大未来的合作努力。

For the last twenty years the Gordon Research Conference on Chemical Oceanography has provided a major forum for discussions, exchange of ideas and information. The central theme of the Gordon Conference to be held in August, 1989 is " Chemical Processes in the Ocean.Atmosphere.solid Earth System." As in previous years, one of the objectives for the 1989 conference is to include several foreign scientists in the exchange of information. Significant research in these areas has been accomplished by them. The grant will provide international travel funds for foreign scientists to participate in this Gordon Research Conference on Chemical Oceanography. Several benefits will be realized by the participation of these individuals. Most of the marine geochemical research topics to be discussed require a global perspective which would benefit from increased international exchange. The foreign scientists can bring new insights and perspectives to the U.S. participants at the Conference. Approximately 100 U.S. scientists will thus have an opportunity to establish personal communication with the foreign scientists. The foreign participants will acquire in.depth information about the U.S. research programs. It will benefit their work and may well lead to expanding future collaborative efforts.
