科学基金加强水圈微生物领域基础研究

NSFC improve the basic research in hydrosphere microbes

国家自然科学基金委员会于2017年启动了"水圈微生物驱动地球元素循环的机制研究"重大研究计划(以下简称"水圈微生物计划"),旨在揭示水圈微生物驱动碳、氮、硫等元素循环的机制。本文主要介绍了本计划的相关研究基础、申请与资助情况以及项目组织管理原则与程序,供有关研究人员参考。

National Natural Science Foundation of China（NSFC）implemented a Major Research Plan entitled ‘Mechanisms Underlining Elemental Cycling on the Earth by Microbes in Hydrosphere＇（‘Microbes in Hydrosphere＇in short）from 2017.This plan focuses on key basic scientific issues on the mechanisms driving carbon,nitrogen,and sulfur cycling on the earth by microbes in hydrosphere.This article introduces the recent progress,statistics of application and funding projects,programs organizational and management principles and processes,which will facilitate better understanding of the plan.
