The Ocean-Atmosphere Energy Transport Conference; Pasadena, California; November 5-7, 2009

2009年11月5日至7日，将在加州理工学院举行海洋-大气能量传输会议。 会议将汇集大气和海洋科学领域的杰出专家，评估地球从空间获得净能量的区域与地球向空间损失能量的区域之间能量转移机制的知识现状。 会议报告将涵盖一系列主题，这些主题将定义和解决海洋能源运输，大气能源运输以及它们之间的耦合方面的突出问题。 会议计划包括该领域领先科学家的特邀讲座以及贡献的演讲和海报。在此资助下，对能量传输动态及其在地球气候系统中的作用感兴趣的学生和博士后将能够参加会议。

A conference on Ocean-Atmosphere Energy Transport will be held at the California Institute of Technology, November 5-7, 2009. The conference will bring together distinguished experts in the atmospheric and oceanic sciences to assess the current state of knowledge regarding the mechanisms of energy transfer between regions in which the earth experiences a net energy gain from space, and those where earth loses energy to space. Conference presentations will cover a range of topics which will define and address outstanding questions in oceanic energy transport, atmospheric energy transport, and the coupling between them. The conference program consists of invited lectures by the leading scientists in the field as well as contributed talks and posters.0Under this grant support, students and postdocs interested in the dynamics of energy transport and its role in the earth's climate system will be enabled to participate in the conference.
