Special Issue of OCEANOGRAPHY on Sea Level

海洋学学会将出版一期《海洋学》杂志关于海平面问题的特刊。随着全球气温上升，了解海平面上升的原因和后果，并最终预测其时间和幅度，是当今最紧迫的科学问题之一，对生活在沿海和低洼地区的人们产生了相当大的社会经济影响。《科学》杂志的特刊将包括使用不同研究技术的科学家撰写的文章：科学海洋钻探岩芯；卫星测量;浮标、漂流船和系泊阵列的海洋观测；还有模特等等。特刊的出版将由NSF和NOAA共同支持，NSF的份额为25K，占总费用的50%。尽管预测未来气温上升很重要，但它仍然是气候科学面临的巨大挑战之一。要真正预测海平面上升，需要进行强有力的跨学科研究，包括了解海平面在地球上的波动？我们需要美国的历史。《科学》的特刊将汇集来自众多学科的作者，探讨海平面上升的所有这些方面，从过去冰河时期100多米的上升和下降，到现代海平面上升及以后。文章将面向具有科学素养的广大读者，以便促进跨学科讨论，并以可读和专业的方式向管理人员和决策者传播科学。文章将由各自领域的顶尖研究人员撰写，包括引用的参考文献，并经过同行评审。所有的文章都是在线发布的免费访问（不需要密码检索文章）。

The Oceanography Society will publish a special issue of the Journal "Oceanography" on the topic of sea level. Understanding the causes and consequences of sea level rise, and ultimately predicting its timing and magnitude, as global temperatures increase is one of the most pressing scientific problems of the day, with considerable socioeconomic impacts for those who live in coastal and low-lying areas. The special issue of will include articles written by scientists who use different techniques in their research: scientific ocean drilling cores; satellite measurements; ocean observations from floats, drifters, and moored arrays; and modeling, among others. The publication of the special issue will be jointly supported by NSF and NOAA, NSF's share of 25K is 50% of the total cost.Intellectual Merit In spite of its importance predicting future rise remains one of the great challenges for climate science. To truly predict sea level rise a vigorous and interdisciplinary research effort, including learning about sea level fluctuations through Earth?s history is needed. The special issue of will bring together authors from numerous disciplines to explore all of these aspects of sea level rise, from the 100 m plus rises and falls of the past ice age, to modern-day sea level rise and beyond. Broader Impacts Articles will be written for a broad, scientifically literate audience so that cross-disciplinary discussions are facilitated and science is also transmitted in a readable and professional way to managers and decision-makers. Articles will be written by top researchers in their fields and include references cited, and are peer reviewed. All articles are published online as free access (no password required to retrieve an article).
