IAI Small Grant Program 2 (SGP II)

美洲全球变化研究所（IAI）正在实施一项奖励计划，以鼓励IAI成员国的科学家和机构在全球变化研究方面的合作活动。小额资助计划- 2 （SGP-II）是IAI计划发展第二阶段的基础，旨在建立新的长期研究网络，以接替当前的合作研究网络，部分由单独的NSF资助。在选择高质量的科学时高度优先考虑该研究所当前的科学议程以及来自IAI成员国的新科学家和机构的参与。SGP-II计划要求来自至少三个IAI成员国的代表机构的科学家参与，促进和加强区域和国际合作。它强烈鼓励早期职业科学家的参与，促进与其他区域或国际项目或计划的联系和互动，如多样性，IGBP， IHDP， WCRP和START，以及增加政策和决策者参与设计科学严谨的提案。SGP-II计划为研究和能力建设工作提供支持，主要包括研究生/博士后支持、差旅和会议费用、通信、出版和传播费用、计算机和软件，并仅为研究人员的工资提供非常有限的支持。SGP-II通过推进对整个美洲地区重要的科学问题的比较和重点研究，鼓励超越国家计划范围的研究。通过这种方式，参与的每个成员国都能从区域关系的加强、新的制度安排的建立、科学数据的公开交换以及研究所研究项目产生的信息中受益。所有SGP-II结果将在IAI网站和通过IAI数据和信息系统提供。SGP II通过推进对整个美洲地区重要的科学问题的比较和重点研究，鼓励超出国家计划范围的研究。通过这种方式，参与IAI的每个成员国都将受益于区域关系的加强、新的制度安排的建立、科学数据的公开交换以及研究所研究项目产生的信息。IAI的成员国有：阿根廷、玻利维亚、巴西、加拿大、智利、哥伦比亚、哥斯达黎加、古巴、多米尼加共和国、厄瓜多尔、危地马拉、牙买加、墨西哥、巴拿马、巴拉圭、秘鲁、乌拉圭、委内瑞拉和美国。

0341783BreulmannThe Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) is carrying out an award program to encourage collaborative activities in global change research among scientists and institutions of the IAI member countries. The Small Grants Program - 2 (SGP-II) is the foundation of a second phase of IAI programmatic development, leading to the establishment of new long term research networks that will succeed the current Collaborative Research Network, supported in part by a separate NSF grant. High priority is given in selection to high-quality science addressing the Institute's current Scientific Agenda and the participation of new scientists and institutions from IAI member countries.Requiring the involvement of scientists representing institutions from at least three IAI member countries, the SGP-II program facilitates and enhances regional and international cooperation. It strongly encourages the participation of early career scientists, promotes linkages and interactions with other regional or international projects or programs like Diversitas, IGBP, IHDP, WCRP and START, as well as increasing the involvement of policy- and decision-makers in the design of scientifically rigorous proposals. The SGP-II program provides support for research and capacity building efforts including mainly graduate/post doctoral support, travel and meeting costs, communications, publications and disseminations costs, computers and software, and only very modest support for salaries of investigators.SGP-II encourages research beyond the scope of national programs by advancing comparative and focused studies based on scientific issues important to the American region as a whole. In this way each member country that participates benefits from the enhancement of regional relationships, the establishment of new institutional arrangements, open exchange of scientific data, and information generated by the Institute's research programs. All SGP-II results will be available on the IAI website and through the IAI Data and Information System.
