Continental Scientific Drilling Workshop: Into a New Decade

大陆科学钻探(CSD)有着产生变革性科学的悠久历史。1984年，CSD社区成立了一家非营利性公司DOSECC，以鼓励和培育社区努力开发CSD项目，准备钻井计划和预算，设计和制造设备，并进行科学的钻井作业。此外，自1997年以来，惩教署社区通过惩教署经社部举办了年度讲习班。可持续发展委员会的群体庞大，利益各异，但重大障碍阻碍了项目的实施：规划和预算项目的技术障碍、实施和管理钻井作业的困难以及不确定的资金。美国科学钻探界的发展和凝聚力对于保持国家竞争力和参与国际大陆科学钻探(ICDP)计划也很重要。本次研讨会将通过聚集具有不同背景和研究重点的科学家来解决这些问题，从最近CSD项目的成功和挑战中学习，讨论合作机会，并规划美国大陆科学钻探的未来进程。这将通过对CSD最近项目的主旨演讲和学科分组会议来实现，以创建未来基于主题的研讨会的愿景。讲习班的调查结果将收集在一份报告中，并将通过印刷和电子形式广泛分发。

Continental Scientific Drilling (CSD) has a long history producing transformative science. In 1984, the CSD community formed a non-profit corporation, DOSECC, to encourage and nurture community efforts to develop CSD projects, prepare drilling plans and budgets, design and fabricate equipment, and conduct scientific drilling operations. In addition, since 1997 the CSD community, through DOSECC, has conducted annual workshops. The CSD community is large and has diverse interests, but significant barriers hinder implementing of projects: technical hurdles in planning and budgeting projects, difficulties in implementing and managing drilling operations, and uncertain funding. Growth and cohesion of the US scientific drilling community is also important for maintaining national competitiveness and participation in the International Continental Scientific Drilling (ICDP) Program. This workshop will address these issues by gathering scientists of diverse background and research focus to learn from the successes and challenges of recent CSD projects, discuss collaboration opportunities, and chart the course of the future of continental scientific drilling in the U.S. This will be accomplished through keynote presentations on recent CSD projects and disciplinary breakout sessions to create a vision for future theme-based workshops. The workshop findings will be gathered in a report that will be distributed widely through print and electronic forms.
