Travel Support to International Workshop on Sustainable Development Strategies, Impacts on Climate, New Delhi, IndiaJanuary 25-30, 1993, Award in Indian and U.S. Currencies

描述：这项提议将支持8名美国科学家参加可持续发展战略和全球/区域/地方大气影响国际研讨会组成和气候，1993年1月25日至30日，新德里。新德里印度理工学院大气科学中心的M.P.辛格教授和北卡罗来纳州立大学的塞图·拉曼教授是这次会议的召集人。讲习班的目的是提供一个论坛，审查和讨论地球-大气系统内物理过程的现状，由于复杂的相互作用和反馈过程，它们对生态系统的影响以及为保护大气质量而寻求的补救措施。讲习班的审议应就更广泛地利用现有技术以应付近期的能源需求提出建议；以及新能源/工业/农业技术的发展，以避免对我们的生态系统的威胁。范围：研讨会与来自美国和印度的科学家高度相关，因为它将综合全球和区域气候变异性的信息，并讨论需要受气候变化情景不利影响的国家应予以考虑。需要解决的共同问题包括森林和海岸带管理、地下水储存、适应与温室效应导致的全球气温预期上升相关的农业模式和水产生产力的可能变化。

Description: This proposal will support travel of eight US scientists to attend the International Workshop on Sustainable Development Strategies and Global/Regional/Local Impacts on Atmospheric Composition and Climate, New Delhi, January 25- 30, 1993. Professor M.P. Singh, Center for Atmospheric Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi and Sethu Raman, North Carolina State University are the conveners of the conference. The objective of the workshop is to provide a forum to review and discuss the current state of physical processes within the earth-atmosphere systems, their impact on the ecological system as a result of complex interactions and feedback processes and remedies to be sought to preserve the quality of the atmosphere. The workshop deliberations should lead to recommendations on more wide- spread utilization of existing technologies to cope with energy requirements in the immediate future; and the development of new energy/industrial/agricultural technology that will avoid the threat to our ecological system. Scope: The workshop is highly relevant to scientists from the US and India since it will synthesize information on global and regional climate variability and discuss sustainable development and energy use measures that need to be taken into account by countries adversely affected by climate change scenarios. Common issues to be addressed include forest and coastal zone management, groundwater storage, adaptation to likely shifts in agricultural patterns and aquatic productivity associated with the expected rise in global temperature from the greenhouse effect.
