Financial support is requested from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to convene a workshop for researchers in the area of low-temperature geochemistry, and the goal of this workshop will be to develop, prioritize, and recommend research directions and opportunities in the area of low temperature geochemistry to be funded by NSF in the coming decade. The directions and priorities derived from this workshop will be reported to the Board of Earth Science Resources (BESR), National Resource Council of the National Academy of Sciences. As detailed in Letter to Colleagues from NSF (NSF Geosciences Beyond 2000: A Window on the First Decade), the maintenance of a habitable Earth in context to increasing demand for Earth'' resources (air, water, soil, metals and non-metals) is a pressing societal concern. The improved understanding of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and interconnection of the lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere (the Earth System) by geochemical cycles are first-order scientific problems. Research addressing the interconnections within the Earth System and Man's impact on Earth may also require a fresh approach(es) in terms of new research directions to be pursued compared to the present ongoing research directions. The anticipated outcomes from this workshop will be a report documenting research directions and priorities submitted to BESR and, in addition to research directions and priorities, this report will also comment on the need for the development (or on the development itself) of useful and appropriate geochemically based topics to be included in undergraduate and graduate geoscience curricula.

请求美国国家科学基金会（NSF）提供财政支持，为低温地球化学领域的研究人员召开研讨会，该研讨会的目标是制定、优先考虑和推荐该领域的研究方向和机会。低温地球化学将在未来十年内由 NSF 资助。本次研讨会得出的方向和优先事项将向美国国家科学院国家资源委员会地球科学资源委员会（BESR）报告。 正如 NSF 给同事的信（2000 年之后的 NSF 地球科学：第一个十年的窗口）中详细介绍的那样，在对地球资源（空气、水、土壤、金属和非金属）的需求不断增加的背景下，维护宜居地球）是一个紧迫的社会问题。 提高对岩石圈、水圈、大气层以及岩石圈、水圈和大气层（地球系统）通过地球化学循环的相互联系的认识是首要的科学问题。 与目前正在进行的研究方向相比，解决地球系统内部相互联系和人类对地球影响的研究也可能需要在新的研究方向方面采取新的方法。 本次研讨会的预期成果将是一份记录提交给 BESR 的研究方向和优先事项的报告，除了研究方向和优先事项之外，该报告还将评论开发（或开发本身）有用和适当的技术的必要性。基于地球化学的主题将纳入本科生和研究生地球科学课程。
