点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Funds are being provided for joint sponsorship of a Gordon Research Conference on Coastal Ocean Circulation that will occur on June 14-18, 1993 at Plymouth State College, NH. The program will be a balanced mixture of observations, theory and modeling. The focus is strongly on physical oceanographic processes. Conference participants will include scientists, senior research students, industrial representatives, and governmental program managers working on the oceanography of continental shelves. The purpose of Gordon Research Conferences is to provide a setting for stimulating and provocative discussions on topical and promising future research areas. Coastal research is a high priority for NSF and other agencies. The Coastal Ocean Program (CoOP) is a developing global change research program, and a large interagency initiative is in the planning stages.
