This grant is to help support costs for a conference on air quality and climate for the Asian-Pacific region. The conference is scheduled to be held March 14-19, 2011 in Kona, Big Island, Hawaii. The objectives of this conference are to (1) discuss the research issues at the nexus of air quality andclimate with particular concern for the Asian-Pacific region, and (2) assess practical research needs and opportunities in areas of, but not necessarily restricted to, air quality trends of megacities, air pollution and weather modification, accelerated regional pollution exposure with climate change, and multi-pollutant airquality/climate management. The current science and technology outlook for East Asia and the Pacific Rim, as related to climate andair quality, will be explored at the conference. Discussion will also identify the depth and coverage of current knowledge, as well as its limitations, and the probable need for sustained investigations in the future to fill knowledge gaps and improve capability for applications to environmental management. The conference will be arranged so that the sessions will occur in series with discussion of each major topical area. Each session will be co-chaired by leading scientists in the field, and will include a 30-minute presentation followed by 10 to 15 minutes of summary views presented by a panel of several discussants. An open discussion will follow for each topic. Papers in poster form are encouraged to complement the invited speakers and invited discussants, so that participants can develop a broad view of ongoing topical research. The invited lead-in presenters are encouraged to provide a broad but brief summary of research carried out in East Asia and the Pacific Rim since the 1990s, and present a hypothetical discussion guide to ?important? future research in the topical areas. The conference will explore long-term theoretical, field, and laboratory research opportunities in the conference topical areas: How does research and development inform policy makers in, for example, the energy and transportation sectors? What are the questions in the next twenty-five years that can be addressed by long-term science and technology in the Asian-Pacific region? Can energy transportation and other actions be moderated or modified by long-term research and development results? Research initiatives may emerge that can serve as the basis for future collaborations in the Asian-Pacific region.This award is co-funded by the ENG Environmental Sustainability program, the GEO Atmospheric Chemistry program, and OISE-China.

这笔赠款将用于支持亚太地区空气质量和气候会议的费用。 会议定于2011年3月14日至19日在夏威夷大岛科纳举行。 本次会议的目标是：（1）讨论空气质量与气候关系方面的研究问题，特别关注亚太地区;（2）评估以下领域的实际研究需求和机会，但不一定限于：特大城市的空气质量趋势、空气污染和人工影响天气、气候变化加速的区域污染暴露、多污染物空气质量/气候管理。 会议将探讨东亚和环太平洋地区目前与气候和空气质量有关的科学和技术前景。讨论还将确定现有知识的深度和覆盖面及其局限性，以及今后可能需要进行持续调查，以填补知识空白，提高应用于环境管理的能力。 会议的安排将使各次会议连续举行，并讨论每个主要专题领域。每场会议将由该领域的顶尖科学家共同主持，包括30分钟的发言，然后由若干讨论者组成的小组提出10至15分钟的简要意见。接下来将对每个主题进行公开讨论。鼓励以海报形式发表论文，作为特邀演讲者和特邀讨论者的补充，以便与会者能够对正在进行的专题研究形成广泛的看法。邀请的主持人被鼓励提供一个广泛的，但简短的总结，自20世纪90年代以来在东亚和环太平洋地区进行的研究，并提出一个假设的讨论指南？重要吗？未来的研究领域。 会议将探讨会议主题领域的长期理论，实地和实验室研究机会：研究和开发如何为决策者提供信息，例如，能源和交通部门？未来25年，亚太地区的长期科学和技术可以解决哪些问题？能源运输和其他行动能否通过长期研究和发展成果加以缓和或修改？该奖项由ENG环境可持续发展项目、GEO大气化学项目和OISE-China共同资助。
