The DISsertations initiative for the advancement of Climate Change ReSearch (DISCCRS) program is an interdisciplinary, cooperative effort involving several professional societies including the American Geophysical Union (AGU), American Meteorological Society (AMS), and Ecological Society of America (ESA). Targeting recent Ph.D. recipients from across the spectrum of disciplines involved in climate change research, the program will quantify and characterize recent Ph.D. recipients interested in climate change to assess human potential and identify needs; consolidate and disseminate Ph.D. dissertation abstracts to highlight individual capabilities; establish electronic distribution lists to promote international, interdisciplinary communication; and organize an international "capstone" symposium for recent graduates to foster interdisciplinary understanding and interactions across disciplines. The program is structured to foster interdisciplinary understanding and accelerate research and insights in the vitally important and time-sensitive area of climate change and its impacts. It will foster international as well as inter-institutional networks, and favor participants from both developing and developed countries. Demographic data will facilitate the characterization and tracking of human resources across the climate-change research community. Tracking recent graduates through their first few years of professional development should tell us much about career progression and satisfaction during these early and most critical years of professional development. The on-line Dissertation Registry provides a comprehensive yet concise summary of new research for scientists, policy makers, and agency representatives and facilitate integration of this new generation of researchers into the broader community. Electronic distribution lists provide a mechanism to disseminate information and foster communication across disciplinary and international boundaries. The symposium will bring together individuals whose work transcends traditional boundaries and enable them to enhance understanding and perspectives and establish collegial, long-term associations to advance the field in new ways. In addition to presenting their research, participants would discuss emerging science and policy topics. Perspectives and recommendations will be published.

气候变化研究（DISCCRS）计划的发展的论文倡议是一个跨学科的合作努力，涉及几个专业学会，包括美国地球物理联盟（AGU），美国气象学会（AMS）和美国生态学会（ESA）。目标是最近的博士学位接受者来自气候变化研究领域的各个学科，该计划将量化和描述最近的博士学位。对气候变化感兴趣的接受者评估人类潜力并确定需求;巩固和传播博士学位论文摘要，以突出个人能力;建立电子分发名单，以促进国际，跨学科的沟通;并为最近的毕业生组织一个国际“顶点”研讨会，以促进跨学科的理解和跨学科的互动。该计划旨在促进跨学科的理解，并加快在气候变化及其影响的至关重要和时间敏感的领域的研究和见解。它将促进国际和机构间网络，并有利于发展中国家和发达国家的参与者。人口数据将有助于描述和跟踪整个气候变化研究界的人力资源。通过对应届毕业生最初几年职业发展的跟踪，我们可以了解到在职业发展的早期和最关键的几年里，他们的职业发展和满意度。在线论文注册为科学家，政策制定者和机构代表提供了一个全面而简洁的新研究摘要，并促进新一代研究人员融入更广泛的社区。电子分发列表提供了一种跨学科和国际界限传播信息和促进沟通的机制。研讨会将汇集个人的工作超越了传统的界限，使他们能够提高理解和观点，并建立合议，长期协会，以新的方式推进该领域。除了介绍他们的研究外，与会者还将讨论新出现的科学和政策专题。将发表观点和建议。
