Workshop on Developing a Research Agenda for Linking Biogeophysical and Socioeconomic Systems, June 5 - 8th, 2000, Phoenix, Arizona

人类已成为一股全球性的生物地球化学力量，对地球生物圈的动态和功能产生了巨大且日益增长的影响。与此同时，人们越来越认识到环境产品和服务(例如，水净化、授粉、病原体控制)在多大程度上推动了经济增长并造福于人类。许多关于环境系统的最引人注目的跨学科问题存在于生态科学和人文科学的交界处。这笔赠款将支持自然科学家和社会经济学科学家之间广泛的跨学科对话，以便为这一新兴研究领域制定优先研究议程。

Abstract00-73653KinzigWorkshop: Developing a research agenda for linking biogeophysical and socioeconomic systemsHumans have become a global biogeochemical force, with a large and growing influence on the dynamics and functioning of the Earth's biosphere. At the same time, there is an increasing recognition of the extent to which environmental goods and services (e.g., water purification, pollination, pathogen control) have fueled economic growth and benefited humans. Many of the most compelling interdisciplinary questions on environmental systems lie at the interface of ecological sciences and human sciences. This grant will support an extensive cross-disciplinary dialog among natural and socioeconomic scientists in order to develop a prioritized research agenda for this emerging field of inquiry.
