Funding is provided to examine the tropical response to orbital forcing. Specifically, the researchers plan to address three science questions: 1) How does the Inter-tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) vary on orbital timescales? 2) How does the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) respond to orbital forcing? and 3) What mechanisms control tropical temperatures on orbital timescales? The broader impacts include cross-institutional collaboration, participation of NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) in a paleoclimate modeling exercise, and the training of a graduate student and post doctoral scholar.

提供资金以审查热带对轨道强迫的反应。 具体来说，研究人员计划解决三个科学问题：1）热带辐合带（ITCZ）在轨道时间尺度上如何变化？2)厄尔尼诺/南方涛动（ENSO）如何响应轨道强迫？在轨道时间尺度上，什么机制控制热带温度？更广泛的影响包括跨机构合作，参与NOAA的地球物理流体动力学实验室（GFDL）的古气候建模工作，以及培训研究生和博士后学者。
