Seventh International Conference on Southern Hemisphere Meteorology and Oceanography; Wellington, New Zealand; March 24 - 28, 2003

该奖项为参加将于2003年3月24-28日在新西兰惠灵顿举行的第七届南半球气象和海洋学国际会议(7ICSHMO)的美国和外国学生和博士后研究人员提供旅行支持。该奖项将由美国气象学会(执行主任罗恩·麦克弗森博士)管理，并将为无法参加会议的年轻研究人员提供旅行援助。会议主题包括a)南大洋和海-气相互作用，2)南半球大气化学，3)南半球热带-温带相互作用和遥相关，4)冰冻圈在南部气候中的作用，5)南美洲季风，以及6)南方气候和社会问题。第七届ICSHMO会议将在惠灵顿的新西兰Te Papa国家博物馆举行。研讨会的主要组织者是George Kiladis博士(位于博尔德的NOAA Aeronomy)和Jim Renwick博士(新西兰国家水与大气研究所)。研讨会形式包括5次主旨演讲：Kevin Trenberth(美国，NCAR气候和全球动力学司)、Chris Folland(英国气象局)、Stephen Rintul(澳大利亚，CSIRO海洋学司)、Dean Roemmich(美国，斯克里普斯海洋研究所)、Per Nyberg(美国，克雷研究所)，可能还有Anne Thompson(美国，NASA/GSFC)。为期5天的会议将分为两个平行会议，由来自美国、巴西、博茨瓦纳、新西兰、澳大利亚和阿根廷的顶尖科学家组成的16人STRONG计划委员会为主流研究人员以及研究生和博士后举办了令人兴奋的会议。会议计划可在会议网站(http://metsoc.rsnz.org/7icshmo/index2.html).)上查阅

The award provides travel support for U.S. and foreign students and postdoctoral researchers to attend the Seventh International Conference on Southern Hemisphere Meteorology and Oceanography (7ICSHMO), to be held in Wellington, New Zealand from March 24-28, 2003. The award will be administered by the American Meteorological Society (Dr. Ron McPherson, Exective Director), and will provide travel assistance to young researchers who would otherwise be unable to attend the meeting. The conference themes include a) Southern oceans and air-sea interaction, 2) Atmospheric chemistry in the Southern Hemisphere, 3) Tropical-extratropical interactions and teleconnections in the Southern Hemisphere, 4) Role of cryosphere in southern climate, 5) South American monsoon, and 6) Southern climate and society issues. The 7ICSHMO meeting will be held at the Te Papa National Museum of New Zealand, in Wellington. The lead organizers of the workshop are Dr. George Kiladis (NOAA Aeronomy, Boulder) and Dr. Jim Renwick (National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research, New Zealand. The workshop format includes 5 keynote talks: Kevin Trenberth (USA, NCAR Climate and Global Dynamics Division); Chris Folland (UK, British Meteorological Office), Stephen Rintoul (Australia, CSIRO Division of Oceanography), Dean Roemmich (USA, Scripps Institution of Oceanography), Per Nyberg (USA, Cray Research), and possibly, Anne Thompson (USA, NASA/GSFC). The 5-day meeting will run two parallel sessions, and the 16-member strong program committee comprising of leading scientists from the United States, Brazil, Botswana, New Zealand, Australia, and Argentina, has put together exciting sessions for the benefit of mainstream researchers as well as graduate students and post-docs. The meeting program is available from the conference web-site (http://metsoc.rsnz.org/7icshmo/index2.html).
