2020 Environmental Sciences: Water Gordon Research Conference; Plymouth, New Hampshire; June 28-July 3, 2020

这笔赠款将支持在新罕布夏州霍尔德内斯举行的环境科学：水·戈登研究会议。会议的主题是创新科学，迎接水生环境科学的重大挑战。为期一周的会议将聚焦于全球变化带来的压力下的可持续水质，环境中持久性化学物质的去向和运输，以及改善水质的数据科学创新。注重改善水质对人类和生态健康都有好处。会议的身临其境的形式将促进与会者之间的联网和协作交流。下一代环境科学领导者的发展将通过与学术界、工业界和政府的领先研究人员的互动来培养。该学科的多样性和包容性将通过为代表不足的群体的与会者提供奖学金来加强。在会议结束时，将通过对所有与会者的调查来评估教育和职业发展方面的成功。该项目的目标是支持将于2020年6月27日至7月3日在新罕布夏州霍尔德内斯举行的环境科学：水戈登研究会议。2020年会议的主题是创新科学，以应对水生环境科学的重大挑战，并将以一项发人深省的研究计划为特色，努力应对当今最紧迫的环境挑战。会议将集中讨论1)全球变化压力下的可持续水质，2)环境中持久性化学物质的暴露和影响，3)改善水质的技术和数据科学创新。注重改善水质对人类和生态健康都有好处。这样的解决方案依赖于对传统学科交叉领域的研究。这些努力将通过聚集190名与会者讨论尖端水质科学来促进。身临其境的形式使与会者之间能够进行有意义的联网和协作思想交流。学生和博士后研究实习生将全面投入到这次沉浸式科学会议中。他们作为研究人员的发展将通过与学术界、工业界和政府的领先研究人员的互动来促进。所有被邀请的演讲者将首次在会议上发言，以培养下一代环境科学领袖。会议将通过为代表不足的群体的与会者提供奖学金，促进该学科的多样性和包容性。会议的成功和影响将在会议结束时通过对所有参与者的调查来衡量。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant will support the Environmental Sciences: Water Gordon Research Conference at Holderness, New Hampshire. The theme of the conference is Innovative Science for the Grand Challenges in the Aquatic Environmental Sciences. The week-long conference will focus on sustainable water quality under stress from global change, fate and transport of persistent chemicals in the environment, and data science innovations to improve water quality. Benefits to both human and ecological health will result from the focus on improving water quality. The immersive format of the conference will facilitate networking and collaborative exchange among participants. The development of the next generation of environmental science leaders will be fostered through interactions with leading researchers in academia, industry, and government. Diversity and inclusion of the discipline will be enhanced through scholarships for attendees from underrepresented groups. Educational and career development success will be assessed by surveys of all participants at the end of the conference. The goal of this project is to support the Environmental Sciences: Water Gordon Research Conference, to be held June 27-July 3, 2020 in Holderness, New Hampshire. The 2020 conference theme is Innovative Science for the Grand Challenges in the Aquatic Environmental Sciences and will feature a program of thought-provoking research that strives to address today's most pressing environmental challenges. The conference will focus on 1) Sustainable water quality under stress from global change, 2) Exposures and effects of persistent chemicals in the environment, and 3) Technological and data science innovations to improve water quality. Benefits to both human and ecological health will result from the focus on improving water quality. Such solutions rely on research at the intersections of traditional disciplines. These efforts will be fostered by bringing together 190 participants to discuss cutting-edge water quality science. The immersive format enables meaningful networking and collaborative exchange of ideas between conference participants. Student and post-doctoral research trainees will be fully engaged in this immersive scientific conference. Their development as researchers will be fostered through interactions with leading researchers in academia, industry, and government. All invited presenters will be first time speakers at the meeting to develop the next generation of environmental science leaders. The meeting will foster diversity and inclusion in the discipline through scholarships for attendees from underrepresented groups. The success and impacts of the conference will be gauged by surveys of all participants at the end of the conference.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
