Assessing Proxies, Strategies, Technologies and Drilling Targets to Constrain the History of the Greenland Ice Sheet

该奖项将支持约10名学生和博士后研究人员参加一个研讨会，该研讨会的重点是制定战略，以更好地了解格陵兰冰盖的历史。研讨会将于2011年秋季在俄勒冈州科瓦利斯举行，将包括冰川学、古海洋学、海洋地质学和气候模型领域的国际代表。资金为年轻科学家提供了参与和贡献跨学科努力的机会，这可能最终导致通过综合海洋钻探计划进行大规模钻探计划。参与的机会将在广泛可用的时事通讯和纪律电子邮件列表中发布广告。参与者的支持将以申请者的目的说明为基础，并将针对任职人数不足的群体。

This award will support the participation of ~10 students and postdoctoral researchers in a workshop focusing on developing strategies to achieve better understanding of the history of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The workshop will be held in the fall of 2011 in Corvallis, OR, and will include international representation in the fields of glaciology, paleoceanography, marine geology, and climate modeling. Funding provides the opportunity for young scientists to get involved with and contribute to an interdisciplinary effort that may eventually lead to a large-scale drilling program through the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program. The opportunity for participation will be advertised in widely available newsletters and through disciplinary email listservs. Participant support will be based on applicants' statements of purpose and will target under-represented groups.
