This award is for partial support of a workshop whose objectives are to assess current methods of measuring and modeling glacier mass balance, highlight application of new technologies and approaches, and encourage investigations in difficult but common glacial environments. Although there have been a number of symposia examining these relations, the methods for mass balance measurements and modeling have been largely ignored. The mass balance of glaciers and ice sheets are receiving renewed interest because of the relationship between climate change and the effect of glacier wastage on sea-level. This award will provide funding to enable publication of the workshop proceedings.

该奖项是对一个研讨会的部分支持，该研讨会的目标是评估当前测量和建模冰川质量平衡的方法，强调新技术和方法的应用，并鼓励在困难但常见的冰川环境中进行调查。 虽然已经有一些研讨会研究这些关系，质量平衡测量和建模的方法在很大程度上被忽视。 由于气候变化与冰川损耗对海平面的影响之间的关系，冰川和冰盖的质量平衡正重新引起人们的兴趣。 该奖项将为出版研讨会论文集提供资金。
