9415829 STERN The maturation of the U.S. Global Change Research Program (US/GCRP) has placed greater emphasis on research on the human dimensions of global change, including the policy sciences. The US/GCRP also is looking to develop more effective methods for conducting integrated assessments that examine the nature and timing of physical, biological, and human systems as well as interactions among those sets of systems and policy options for adapting to or mitigating global change. Agencies like NSF that collectively manage the US/GCRP traditionally have looked to the National Academy of Sciences and the component parts of the National Research Council to provide guidance and feedback regarding planning and conduct of the program. As human dimensions research reaches critical new stages, the NRC Committee on the Human Dimensions of Global Change will conduct a two-day workshop to examine two closely related issues: (1) research needs across the breadth of the human dimensions of global change and in specific areas, such as the policy sciences and methods for integrated assessments; and (2) strengths and weaknesses of various modes of research support (ranging from support for individual investigators to support for centers), including consideration of the relative balance among different modes. This two-day workshop will take place in June 1994 in Washington, with roughly two dozen leading social scientists gathering to share their experiences and opinions with respect to these issues. A written summary of comments will be made available within a few months of the conclusion of the workshop in order to allow others to benefit from the ideas presented at the workshop. Through this workshop, leaders of human dimensions and other global change programs in NSF and other US/GCRP agencies will have to opportunity to hear directly from leading research scientists. The discussions at the workshop also will provide NSF officials with valuable information as it develops plans for possible new modes of research support to facilitate research on the human dimensions of global change.

9415829 STERN美国全球变化研究计划（US/GCRP）的成熟更加强调对全球变化的人类维度的研究，包括政策科学。美国/GCRP还在寻求开发更有效的方法进行综合评估，审查物理、生物和人类系统的性质和时间，以及这些系统之间的相互作用和适应或减缓全球变化的政策选择。美国国家科学基金会（NSF）等共同管理US/GCRP的机构传统上一直指望国家科学院和国家研究委员会的组成部分提供有关计划和实施的指导和反馈。随着人类维度研究进入关键的新阶段，NRC全球变化人类维度委员会将举办为期两天的研讨会，探讨两个密切相关的问题：(1)全球变化人类维度的广度和特定领域的研究需求，如综合评估的政策科学和方法；(2)各种研究支持模式（从对研究者个人的支持到对中心的支持）的优缺点，并考虑不同模式之间的相对平衡。这个为期两天的讲习班将于1994年6月在华盛顿举行，大约有二十几位主要的社会科学家聚集在一起，就这些问题分享他们的经验和意见。将在讲习班结束后的几个月内提供一份书面评论摘要，以便其他人能够从讲习班上提出的想法中受益。通过这次研讨会，美国国家科学基金会和其他美国/GCRP机构的人类维度和其他全球变化项目的领导人将有机会直接听取主要研究科学家的意见。研讨会上的讨论也将为NSF官员提供有价值的信息，以制定可能的研究支持新模式的计划，以促进对全球变化的人类维度的研究。
