Linkages Between Global Climate System Behavior and Regional Climate Impacts

摘要 ATM-9909008兰姆，彼得J.俄克拉荷马大学标题：全球气候系统行为和区域气候影响之间的联系的调查这一小笔探索性研究赠款资助一个项目，涉及设计和初步实施的几个示范项目，确定和量化全球气候系统行为（包括其可预测性）和区域气候影响之间的联系。 这些联系将通过综合使用观测数据、统计技术和一套模型（有些是耦合的）来建立。 这项研究将由来自俄克拉荷马州、得克萨斯州和加州大学圣地亚哥分校的科学家合作进行。 这项研究很重要，因为气候变化的区域影响具有巨大的经济和社会后果，了解这些影响和后果将有助于应对可能的缓解措施。

Abstract ATM-9909008Lamb, Peter J.University of OklahomaTitle: Investigation of Linkages Between Global Climate System Behavior and Regional Climate ImpactsThis Small Grant for Exploratory Research funds a project which involves the design and initial implementation of several demonstration projects that identify and quantify the linkages between global climate system behavior (including its predictability) and regional climate impacts. Those linkages will be established through the combined use of observational data, statistical techniques, and a suite of models, some coupled. The research will be conducted collaboratively by scientists from the University of Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and UCSD, SIO. This research is important because the regional impacts of climate change has large economic and social consequences and understanding those impacts and consequences will help deal with their possible mitigation.
