This award provides renewed funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at Mote Marine Laboratory, Sarasota, FL. The program will support ten students each summer during a ten week summer research program. The intellectual focus of the Mote REU Program is on estuarine science, particularly basic and applied research on the biological and chemical features of estuaries. The integrating theme of the program is to address major threats to coastal habitats, including aquatic pollution, harmful algal blooms, habitat alteration, coral reef decline. Students will conduct independent research and report their findings in a research paper and an oral seminar presentation. They will participate in seminars on scientific writing, preparing oral presentations, graduate school preparation, and career options in oceanography.

该奖项为佛罗里达州萨拉索塔莫特海洋实验室的本科生研究经验 (REU) 项目提供了新的资金。该计划每年夏天将在为期十周的夏季研究计划中为十名学生提供支持。 Mote REU 项目的智力重点是河口科学，特别是河口生物和化学特征的基础和应用研究。该计划的综合主题是解决沿海栖息地面临的主要威胁，包括水生污染、有害藻华、栖息地改变、珊瑚礁衰退。学生将进行独立研究，并在研究论文和口头研讨会报告中报告他们的发现。他们将参加有关科学写作、准备口头报告、研究生院准备和海洋学职业选择的研讨会。
