Gordon Research Conferences (GRC) Radiation and Climate: Connecting Observations to Global Circulation Modeling Challenges; Lewiston, Maine; July 15-21, 2017

该奖项为早期职业科学家提供资金，以参加2017年夏天在缅因州举行的戈登辐射和气候研究会议。 这次会议的标题是“连接观测全球环流建模的挑战。“会议的目标是将建模者和理论家与观测者聚集在一起，以确定和解决当前全球环流模型中存在的突出问题和重大不确定性。 第十届戈登研究会议（GRC）和第四届戈登研究研讨会（GRS）将于2017年7月在缅因州刘易斯顿的贝茨学院举行，届时将有来自世界各地的科学家参加。 主要会议分为八个部分，每个部分都有一个特邀讨论领导和两到三个特邀演讲者，涵盖辐射和气候方面的突出挑战。 会议将召开的主题，如：稳定性和水分，对流聚集，卷云，并在北极云的混合相过程。 在GRC之前举行的GRS将允许大约60名研究生和早期职业科学家分享和展示他们的工作。

This award provides funding for early career scientists to attend the Gordon Research Conference on Radiation and Climate in Maine in the summer of 2017. The title of this conference is "Connecting Observations to Global Circulation Modeling Challenges." The goal of the conference is to bring modelers and theorists together with observationalists to identify and tackle outstanding questions and significant uncertainties that are present in current global circulation models. The conference has a dual impact of improving models for societal benefit and developing the next generation of scientists by allowing them to fully engage in discussions about the state of the field and the next steps forward.The 10th Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and 4th Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will be held at Bates College in Lewiston, Maine in July 2017. The main meeting is divided into eight sessions, each with an invited discussion lead and two or three invited speakers covering an area of outstanding challenges in radiation and climate. Sessions will be convened on topics such as: stability and moisture, convective aggregation, cirrus clouds, and mixed phase processes in Arctic clouds. The GRS, which is held immediately prior to the GRC, will allow about 60 graduate students and early career scientists to share and present their work.
