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).

国际和平研究所将在2015年夏天组织一次关于陆地-大气相互作用的暑期班。暑期班的目标是涵盖与从土壤物理、植物生态生理学、边界层湍流和对流研究陆地-大气相互作用相关的广泛主题。这一目标是为了培训这一领域的下一代科学家，并希望这种培训将促进该领域的快速研究发展。2014年9月，国家科学基金会主办了一次研讨会，以促进水文气象、水文气候和生态水文学(HHE)研究的进展。陆地-大气相互作用研究的研究和资助成为讲习班的首要任务。在这一领域取得研究和业务进展的主要差距之一是缺乏陆地-大气相互作用方面的核心培训。这个暑期班旨在满足这一需求。Broader Impact的目标之一是接触到美国多样化的学生和年轻科学家，这样参加暑期班的科学家就能反映出人口的多样性。从历史上看，黑人学院和大学将成为特别的目标。几场讲座将通过大学水文科学促进联盟(CUAHSI)在线提供。
