摘要-0706230 MOLNAR，P. -科罗拉多大学，博尔德中美研讨会：亚洲季风和沙漠化的演变以及青藏高原的发展这次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，与中国同行会晤，讨论亚洲高地形与亚洲大气环流和气候动力学的相互作用，该地区的地质构造历史背景。 研讨会定于2007年1月7日至9日在中国海南三亚举行。 美国的主要研究者是科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的彼得·莫尔纳博士，中国的主要研究者是中国Xi中国科学院地球环境研究所的安智生教授。 这次研讨会将促进跨学科的知识，特别是美国和中国科学家之间关于西藏和区域气候之间相互作用的气象方面的知识。 预计这次会议将产生国际合作，讲习班有可能促进青年科学家的研究，这是非常重要的。 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.
