0706230科罗拉多大学博尔德分校中美研讨会：亚洲季风的演变和沙漠化以及青藏高原的生长这个研讨会将邀请来自美国的具有气候动力学、古气候学和地质学专业知识的科学家与他们的中国同行会面，在该地区构造历史的背景下讨论亚洲高地与大气环流和气候动力学的相互作用。研讨会定于2007年1月7日至9日在海南三亚举行，中国说。美国的PI是科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的Peter Molnar博士，中国的PI是西安中科院地球环境研究所的安志生教授中国。这次研讨会将增进各学科之间的知识，特别是中美科学家之间关于西藏与区域气候相互作用的气象方面的知识。预计这次会议将产生的国际合作，以及研讨会在青年科学家中催化研究的潜力，都是重要的。五名早期职业科学家和研究生将参加这次活动。

ABSTRACTOISE-0706230 MOLNAR, P. - University of Colorado, BoulderChina-USA Workshop: Evolution of Asian monsoon and desertification and growth of the Tibetan PlateauThis workshop will bring scientists from the United States with expertise in climate dynamics, paleoclimatology, and geology, to meet with their Chinese counterparts to discuss the interaction of high terrain in Asia with atmospheric circulation and climate dynamics in the context of the tectonic history of the region. The workshop is set for January 7-9, 2007 in Sanya, Hainan, China. The U.S. PI is Dr. Peter Molnar of the University of Colorado, Boulder and the Chinese counterpart is Professor AN, Zhisheng of the Institute of Earth Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Xi'an, China. This workshop will advance knowledge across disciplines and especially between U.S. and Chinese scientists on the meteorological aspects of the interaction between Tibet and regional climate. The international collaborations expected to originate from this meeting, and the workshop's potential to catalyze research among young scientists, are significant. Five early career scientists and graduate students will participate in this event.
