The NASA-CRCES-IPRS Workshop on Decadal Climate Variability; Kona, Hawaii; February 23-26, 2004

研讨会将于2004年2月23日至26日在夏威夷科纳举行，由美国国家航空航天局（NASA）、美国国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）和美国国家科学基金会（NSF）共同主办。研讨会的组织委员会由博士组成。Tom Delworth （NOAA）、Chet Koblinsky （NOAA）、Eric Lindstrom （NASA海洋学）、刘政宇（威斯康星大学）、Jay McCreary（夏威夷大学）、Jerry Meehl（国家大气研究中心）、Vikram Mehta （PI）和Jim O’brien（佛罗里达州立大学）。会议形式将包括口头报告和讨论环节。组委会将根据申请人在比赛中的表现选出以下申请人。申请人可单独或以小组形式，从研讨会的主题中选择一个主题写一篇文献综述。10篇最佳综述论文的作者将获得参加本次研讨会的全额旅费和日常费用；每篇论文的一位作者将被要求在研讨会上口头介绍他/她的综述论文。对于有多名作者的获奖论文，所有作者都将获得前往研讨会的旅费和日常费用。更广泛的影响：研讨会为研究生提供了一个与低频气候变率领域的领导者互动的绝佳机会，因此将大大增加他们的师范大学教育和培训经验。

The Workshop will be held in Kona, Hawaii from 23 rd to 26th February 2004 and will be co-sponsored by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Science Foundation (NSF). The Organizing Committee for the Workshop consists of Drs. Tom Delworth (NOAA), Chet Koblinsky (NOAA), Eric Lindstrom (NASA Oceanography), Zhengyu Liu (University of Wisconsin), Jay McCreary (University of Hawaii), Jerry Meehl (National Center for Atmospheric Research), Vikram Mehta (PI), and Jim O'Brien (Florida State University). The format will consist of oral presentations and discussion sessions.Applicants will be selected by the Organizing Committee based on their performance in the competition outlined as follows. Applicants, either individually or in groups, will write a literature review on a topic of their choice from one of the themes from the workshop. Ten authors of the best review papers will receive full travel and per-diem expenses to go to this Workshop; one of the authors of each paper will be required to orally present his/her review paper in the Workshop. For winning papers with multiple authors, all authors will receive travel and per diem expenses to go to the Workshop. Broader Impacts:The workshop provides an excellent opportunity for graduate students to interact with leaders in the field of low frequency climate variability and hence will add substantially to their normal university education and training experiences.
