Summer School in Land-atmosphere Interactions

PI将于2015年夏季组织一次关于陆地-大气相互作用的暑期学校。暑期学校的目标是涵盖与土壤物理学，植物生态生理学和边界层湍流和对流的陆地-大气相互作用研究有关的大量主题。这一目标是培养下一代的科学家在这一领域，并希望这样的培训将产生快速的研究发展在该领域。知识价值NSF主办的研讨会在2014年9月举行，以促进水文气象，水文气候和生态水文（HHE）研究的进展。土地-大气相互作用研究的研究和供资是讲习班的首要优先事项。在这一领域的研究和业务进展方面的主要差距之一是缺乏土地-大气相互作用方面的核心培训。本次暑期学校的目标之一是接触美国多样化的学生和年轻科学家，以便参加暑期学校的科学家反映人口的多样性。 历史上的黑人学院和大学将是特别针对的。 一些讲座将通过促进水文科学大学联合会在线提供。（CUAHSI）。

The PIs are organizing a summer school in the summer of 2015 on land-atmosphere interactions. The objective of the summer school is to cover a large range of topics pertinent to the study of land-atmosphere interactions from soil physics, plant ecophysiology, and boundary layer turbulence and convection. This objective is to train the next generation of scientists in this area and hope that such training will generate rapid research development in the field.Intellectual merit An NSF-sponsored workshop was held in September of 2014 to facilitate progress in hydrometeorological, hydroclimatic, and ecohydrological (HHE) research. The study and funding of land-atmosphere interaction research came up as the number one priority of the workshop. One of the main gaps towards research and operational advances in this area is the lack of core training in land-atmosphere interactions. This summer school is targeted at addressing this need.Broader impacts One of the objectives is to reach out to a diverse pool of students and young scientists in the U.S. so that the scientists attending the summer school reflect the diversity of the population. Historically Black Colleges and Universities will be specifically targeted. Several lectures will be available online through the Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Sciences, Inc. (CUAHSI).
