This grant is in partial support of a workshop on Engineering Response to Climate Change: Adaptation, Mitigation, and Sustainability,to be held in mid-September 2010 in the Washington, DC area. The workshop will focus on the integration of mitigation and adaptation approaches and will emphasize the centrality of engineering in developing a sustainable technological roadmap for climate change response. The goal of the workshop is to identify key engineering challenges, needed advances, and systems level approaches to reduce future vulnerability to climate change. The workshop will focus on the U.S., but with the perspective of a global framework. The participants will be drawn from multiple disciplines, including engineers, climate change scientists, ecosystem biologists, and public policy researchers. Workshop sessions are designed to be interactive, cross-cutting, and focused on outcomes. The workshop report will address conclusions from the workshop including research frontiers and identification of research needs in adaptation, mitigation, and sustainability in response to climate change, from the perspective of engineering response. A new website will be created for the materials for the workshop and the workshop final report.

这笔赠款是对将于2010年9月中旬在华盛顿特区举行的关于应对气候变化的工程：适应、缓解和可持续发展研讨会的部分支持。讲习班将侧重于缓解和适应办法的结合，并将强调工程学在制定应对气候变化的可持续技术路线图方面的中心作用。研讨会的目标是确定关键的工程挑战、所需的进展和系统层面的方法，以减少未来对气候变化的脆弱性。研讨会的重点将放在美国，但要从全球框架的角度出发。参与者将来自多个学科，包括工程师、气候变化科学家、生态系统生物学家和公共政策研究人员。研讨会的目的是互动性、交叉性和注重成果。研讨会报告将从工程响应的角度讨论研讨会的结论，包括研究前沿和确定适应、缓解和可持续应对气候变化方面的研究需求。将为讲习班材料和讲习班最后报告创建一个新的网站。
