The Towuti Drilling Project (TDP) is an international research program to understand long-term environmental and climatic change in the tropical western Pacific, the impacts of geological and environmental changes on the biological evolution of endemic aquatic taxa, and the geomicrobiology and geochemistry of metal-rich, ultramafic-hosted lake sediment. Lake Towuti is the largest and oldest lake in Southeast Asia, and thus holds one of the longest records of climate change anywhere in the region. The lake is home to dozens of species of endemic fish, snails, shrimp, and other organisms, and is surrounded by the most diverse rainforest on Earth. The lake is also one of the only large ferruginous (iron-rich) lakes on Earth, and hosts an exotic microbial community that is potentially analogous to the ecosystems that existed in early Earth's ferruginous oceans. In late 2015, the TDP (EAR-1401448) recovered over 1000 m of sediment drill core from the floor of Lake Towuti to reconstruct how Indo-Pacific climate and these unique ecosystems evolved during the Pleistocene epoch. This award provides support for an international workshop in Makassar, Indonesia, to synthesize results from the TDP and to plan research on the environmental history of Indonesia. Specific areas to be addressed include: 1) a new long, high-resolution record of tropical western Pacific climatic change during last ~1 million years to test the impacts of changes in global temperature, greenhouse gas concentrations, and other climate forcings on Indo-Pacific hydrology; 2) the response of Southeast Asian tropical rainforests to past climate change, including climates warmer than the present; 3) information on the age and history of the lake and the limnological conditions that gave rise to Lake Towuti's endemic fauna and flora; and 4) new insight into the microbial processes operating at depth in Towuti's sediments and their effects on sediment mineralogy and biogeochemistry.

托乌提钻探项目（TDP）是一项国际研究计划，旨在了解热带西太平洋的长期环境和气候变化、地质和环境变化对特有水生类群生物进化的影响以及金属的地球微生物学和地球化学。 -富含超镁铁质的湖泊沉积物。托乌提湖是东南亚最大、最古老的湖泊，因此是该地区气候变化记录最长的湖泊之一。该湖是数十种特有鱼类、蜗牛、虾和其他生物的家园，周围环绕着地球上最多样化的雨林。 该湖也是地球上仅有的大型铁质（富铁）湖泊之一，拥有一个奇异的微生物群落，可能类似于早期地球铁质海洋中存在的生态系统。 2015 年底，TDP (EAR-1401448) 从陶乌提湖湖底回收了超过 1000 米的沉积物钻芯，以重建印度太平洋气候和这些独特的生态系统在更新世时期的演变过程。 该奖项为在印度尼西亚望加锡举办的国际研讨会提供支持，以综合 TDP 的成果并规划印度尼西亚环境历史的研究。需要解决的具体领域包括：1）过去约 100 万年热带西太平洋气候变化的新的长期高分辨率记录，以测试全球温度、温室气体浓度和其他气候强迫的变化对印度洋的影响。太平洋水文学； 2）东南亚热带雨林对过去气候变化的反应，包括比现在温暖的气候； 3）关于湖泊的年龄和历史以及形成托乌提湖特有动植物群的湖泊学条件的信息； 4）对托乌提沉积物深处的微生物过程及其对沉积物矿物学和生物地球化学的影响有了新的认识。
