Collaborative IRES: Integrated Research & Educational Training of Geoscience Students in Deep-Time Paleoclimatology, Western South America

0826105/0825617蒙塔内兹/伊斯贝尔这项国际学生研究经验(IRES)将支持加州大学的伊莎贝尔·P·蒙塔内兹？威斯康星大学密尔沃基分校的戴维斯和约翰·L·伊斯贝尔与阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的卡洛斯·奥斯卡·利马里诺和塞尔吉奥·马伦西进行了研究合作。研究人员打算促进对南美洲西部深部古气候学地球科学学生的综合研究和教育培训。这项研究将产生第一个地球年代学(U-Pb)校准的高分辨率数据集，用于冈德瓦西部的高纬度地区。冈瓦那是5到2亿年前存在的南部大陆，包括今天的大部分南美洲？S。合作者将通过一项计划为该项目带来互补的技能，该计划包括各种组成部分：(A)在阿根廷西部进行地层学、沉积学、古生物学和地球化学的综合研究；(B)在实地考察之前和之后对本科生和研究生进行研究培训；以及(C)促进职业发展的指导活动。IRES将在师生团队项目中培训4名美国研究生和最多9名本科生。PIS将通过他们目前由NSF资助的地理多样性倡议，将传统上代表性不足的学生纳入该项目。研究结果将通过面向本科生和高中生的公开演讲、研究出版物和教育材料进行传播。

0826105/0825617Montanez/Isbell This International Research Experience for Students (IRES) will support Isabel P. Montanez of the University of California ? Davis and John L. Isbell of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in a research collaboration with Carlos Oscar Limarino and Sergio Marenssi of Buenos Aires University in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The researchers intend to facilitate the integrated research and educational training of geoscience students in deep-time paleoclimatology in western South America. This research will produce the first geo-chronologically (U-Pb) calibrated, high-resolution data sets for the high latitudes of western Gondwana.Gondwana was the southern continent that existed 500 to 200 millions years ago and included most of today?s South America. The collaborators will bring complementary skills to the project with a program that includes various components: (a) an integrated stratigraphic, sedimentologic, paleontologic, and geochemical study in western Argentina, (b) research training for undergraduate and graduate students prior to and after the field study, and (c) mentoring activities to promote career-building. The IRES will train 4 U.S. graduate and up to 9 undergraduate students in student-faculty team based projects. The PIs will integrate traditionally underrepresented students into the program through their current NSF-funded ?Geodiversity initiatives.? Results will be disseminated through public presentations, research publications, and educational materials for undergraduates and high school students.
