This award will support the participation of eight U.S. scientists in a seminar on the "Remote Sensing of Biosphere Functioning," organized jointly by Dr. Harold A. Mooney of Stanford University and Dr. Richard J. Hobbs of the Australian CSIRO Division of Wildlife and Rangelands Research. United States and Australian participants will meet at the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii during July 1988. The seminar will address how remote sensing technology can be used to make coordinated measurements on a global scale of various physical, chemical and biological parameters. Discussions will focus on the capabilities of remote sensing hardware, the assessment of physical, chemical, and biological parameters based on remotely sensed reflectance data, the ability to quantify processes such as photosynthesis, decomposition and species succession, data handling requirements, and the types of experiments needed to relate ground based and remotely sensed measurements. The United States and Australia are both leaders in the development and utilization of remote sensing technology. Australian scientists, faced with understanding and managing vast landscape units, have pioneered in the development of remote sensing technology to meet this challenge. The United States, through its large space program, has fostered extensive new technology for remote sensing of features of the earth's surface. This seminar will take advantage of this expertise in identifying the requirements for a remote and continuous monitoring of the functioning of the earth's biosphere.

该奖项将支持八名美国科学家参加由斯坦福大学的哈罗德·a·穆尼博士和澳大利亚CSIRO野生动物和牧场研究部的理查德·j·霍布斯博士联合组织的“生物圈功能遥感”研讨会。美国和澳大利亚的与会者将于1988年7月在夏威夷檀香山的东西方中心会晤。研讨会将讨论如何利用遥感技术在全球范围内协调测量各种物理、化学和生物参数。讨论将集中在遥感硬件的能力、基于遥感反射数据的物理、化学和生物参数的评估、量化光合作用、分解和物种演代等过程的能力、数据处理要求、以及需要将地面和遥感测量相关联的实验类型。美国和澳大利亚在开发和利用遥感技术方面都处于领先地位。澳大利亚科学家面临着理解和管理巨大景观单元的挑战，他们率先开发了遥感技术来应对这一挑战。美国通过其庞大的太空计划，广泛培育了遥感地球表面特征的新技术。这次研讨会将利用这方面的专门知识，确定对地球生物圈的功能进行远程和持续监测的需要。
