SHEBA Project Office, Phase 2

OPP-9720144莫里茨，华盛顿大学理查德大学，摩尔，詹姆斯大学大气研究合作这个项目是一个大型的，协调的，多人参与的计划，北冰洋表面热量平衡的关键组成部分。这项研究计划将在一艘冻结在冰层中的船只上进行14个月。在舍巴的一套综合测量将允许改进北极地区的气候模型。这些改进的模型将导致更好地预测气候和北极冰盖在拟议的全球变暖下的持久性。如果大气中的二氧化碳水平增加到目前的水平，就可能发生全球变暖。该项目将为希巴设计一个管理办公室。该办公室将促进实地的一套核心衡量标准，协调调查员报告/规划工作，并向参与联合研究项目的公众和其他供资机构提供信息。

ABSTRACT OPP-9720144 MORITZ, RICHARD UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON MOORE, JAMES UNIVERSITY COPERATION FOR ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH This project is a key component of a large, coordinated, multi-investigator program, Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic (SHEBA) Ocean. The research program will be conducted for 14 months from a ship frozen into the ice pack. The combined set of measurements in SHEBA will allow refinement of climate models for the Arctic region. Those improved models will lead to better predictions of the climate and the permanence of the Arctic ice cap under a proposed global warming that could occur if atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are increased above present levels. This project will project a management office for SHEBA. The office will facilitate a set of core measurements at the field site, coordinate investigator reporting/planning efforts, and provide information both to the general public and other funding agencies participating in joint research projects.
