2011 Polar Marine Sciences GRC

该奖项由NSF极地项目办公室的南极综合系统科学和北极自然科学项目提供，将支持研究生和早期职业科学家的旅行和注册费用，如“2011年极地海洋科学GRC”提案所述。 所有的戈登研究会议（GRC）都将来自不同职业水平的国际科学家聚集在一个共同的地点，为期一周，以便对未发表的结果进行坦率和公开的讨论。 今年，极地海洋科学GRC将首次与戈登研究研讨会（GRS）相结合，在主会议之前，将早期职业科学家与导师聚集在一起，进行为期两天的小型会议，以便为学生和早期职业科学家提供更密集的培训。智力优势：2011年戈登极地海洋科学研究会议汇集了北极和南极的科学家，讨论他们的不-然而，在非正式的气氛中公布了结果，目的是改进对目前工作的解释，为今后真正的综合项目奠定基础。此外，会议将共同努力，在会议上包括一些非极地的演讲。更广泛的影响：戈登研究会议非常努力吸引年轻科学家，包括研究生和博士后，极地海洋科学GRC还将首次与更标准的戈登研究会议一起举办GRS（研究生研究研讨会）系列。 此外，会议上总是有大量的国际参与者，因此它是促进国际合作的好场所。NSF提供的资金将用于支持美国机构的研究生和早期职业科学家。让早期职业科学家和学生参加以南极和北极为重点的必要的多学科/跨学科研究领域的小型会议和主要会议，对于培训下一代极地研究人员极为重要。

This award provided by the Antarctic Integrated System Science and Arctic Natural Sciences programs in the Office of Polar Programs at NSF will support travel and registration costs for graduate students and early career scientists as outlined in the proposal "2011 Polar Marine Sciences GRC". All Gordon Research Conferences (GRC) bring together an international group of scientists from all different career levels to a common venue for a one-week period to allow frank and open discussion of unpublished results. For the first time this year the Polar Marine Sciences GRC will be combined with a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) to bring early career scientists together with mentors for a two day mini-meeting prior to the main meeting to allow for more intensive training for the students and early career scientists.Intellectual Merit: The 2011 Gordon Research Conference on Polar Marine Sciences brings together Arctic and Antarctic scientists to discuss their not-yet published results in an informal atmosphere with the goal of improving the interpretation of current work and laying the groundwork for truly integrated projects in the future. In addition the conference will make a concerted effort to include some non-polar presentations at the conference.Broader Impact: Gordon Research Conferences make a very strong effort to entrain young scientists including graduate students and post-docs, and the Polar Marine Sciences GRC will also hold a GRS (Graduate Research Seminar) series in conjunction with the more standard Gordon Research Conference for the first time. In additional there is always a strong international turnout at the meeting so it is a good venue for fostering international collaboration.Funds provided by the NSF will be used to support graduate students and early-career scientists affiliated with US institutions. Inclusion of early career scientists and students in the mini-meeting and main meeting of a necessarily multi/ interdisciplinary field of research focused on both the Antarctic and Arctic will be extremely valuable in training the next generation of polar researchers.
