REU Site: Marine Science Investigations at the Bodega Marine Laboratory

该奖项由美国国家科学基金会的生物基础设施和海洋科学部支持，将邀请本科生参加一个为期8周的夏季研究项目，地点在距离博德加湾沿海村庄约3英里的博德加海洋实验室（BML）。学生将在做研究和传播科学方面培养独立性和信心。教师和其他导师将在友好的支持环境中提供一对一的研究培训，从选择主题到撰写论文。参加者将获得津贴、住宿、膳食和旅行费用。BML位于旧金山北部生物丰富的加利福尼亚海岸，是加州大学戴维斯分校的一部分。每年夏天，BML欢迎来访的学生和科学家组成一个多元化和互动的社区。REU学生可以选择各种研究生物，海洋和沿海陆地栖息地，以及不同的研究领域，例如沿海海洋学，入侵物种生态学，污染对海洋生物的影响以及生物多样性。该项目的一个目标是增加在海洋科学领域未被充分代表的少数民族的成功。欲了解更多信息，请访问http://www.bml.ucdavis.edu，或联系项目助理（bml-reu@ucdavis.edu）或苏珊·威廉姆斯博士（slwilliams@ucdavis.edu）。

This award, supported by NSF's Divisions of Biological Infrastructure and Oceanic Sciences, will engage undergraduate students in an 8-week summer research program at the Bodega Marine Laboratory (BML), about 3 miles from the coastal village of Bodega Bay. Students will develop independence and confidence in doing research and communicating science. Faculty and other mentors will provide one-on-one research training, from choosing a topic to writing a paper, in a friendly supportive environment. Participants will receive a stipend plus housing, meals and travel costs. BML is situated on a biologically rich stretch of the California coast north of San Francisco and is part of the University of California at Davis. BML welcomes a diverse and interactive community of visiting students and scientists each summer. REU students can choose from a variety of study organisms, habitats both marine and coastal terrestrial, and diverse areas of study, for example, coastal oceanography, invasive species ecology, pollution effects on marine life, and biodiversity. A goal of the program is to increase the success of underrepresented minorities in marine science.
