Northest Pacific U.S GLOBEC Coordinating Office

该提案寻求资金，为美国GLOBEC计划的东北太平洋项目建立一个区域协调办公室。该办公室将负责协调在美国GLOBEC重点关注的两个东北太平洋地区--加州洋流系统(CCS)和阿拉斯加湾沿岸(CGOA)--开始的众多不同的研究活动。具体地说，该办公室将1)制定和实施NEP项目的地方管理框架，2)为数据管理计划提供建议，3)协调GLOBEC NEP项目，4)在美国GLOBEC NEP项目和太平洋地区其他国家和国际项目的努力之间建立合作桥梁。对美国GLOBEC计划来说，NEP研究不仅仅是几个孤立的、单独资助的项目，这一点很重要；地区协调办公室将对确保GLOBEC NEP计划被协调为一个真正的“地区性”综合计划至关重要。

This proposal seeks funds to establish a regional coordination office for the Northeast Pacific project of the U.S. GLOBEC program. The office will be responsible for coordinating the many, diverse research activities that are beginning in the two Northeast Pacific regions that are the focus of U.S. GLOBEC - the California Current System (CCS) and the Coastal Gulf of Alaska (CGOA). Specifically, the office will 1) develop and implement a framework for local administration of the NEP program, 2) produce recommendations for a data management plan, 3) provide coordination among GLOBEC NEP projects, and 4) build cooperative bridges between U.S. GLOBEC NEP efforts and the efforts of other national and international programs in the Pacific. It is important to the U.S. GLOBEC program that the NEP research is more than a few isolated, individually funded projects; the regional coordination office will be crucial in ensuring that the GLOBEC NEP program is coordinated into an integrated, truly `regional` program.
