Coordination of PEP I Research Activities

摘要：ATM-9526139 Markgraf。PEP I（极地-赤道-极地，美洲古气候样带）是PAGES/IGBP在组织和规划阶段的研究倡议。晚第四纪古环境记录包含了地球过去环境和气候的自然变率信息，并为评估未来全球气候变化预测的有效性和理解过去气候变化的机制提供了一个框架。已经制定了半球间古气候研究的科学议程。PEP I的国际工作组将实施科学计划。该奖项将支持：年度会议，以协调工作组的活动，特别是在过去的全球变化领域加强北美和南美的合作；2.保持研究人员、工作组、资助机构（如IAI）和其他全球变化项目之间沟通的协调工作；和3。协助协调研究会议，讨论具体的政教合作研究主题。

Abstract ATM-9526139 Markgraf. Vera University of Colorado Title: Coordination of PEP I Research Activities PEP I (Pole-Equator-Pole, the paleoclimate transect of the Americas)is a PAGES/IGBP research initiative in the organizational and planing stages. Late Quaternary paleoenvironmental records contain information on the natural variability of the earth's past environments and climate and provide a framework for assessing the validity of future global climate change predictions and for understanding mechanisms of past climate changes. A scientific agenda for interhemispheric paleoclimate research has been formulated. An international working group for PEP I will implement the science program. This award will support: 1. annual meetings to coordinate working group activities, especially in terms of enhancing cooperation in North and South America in the past global change arena; 2.coordination efforts for maintaining communication among the researchers, working groups, funding agencies (such as IAI) and other global change programs; and 3. facilitate coordination of research meetings on specific PEP I research themes.
