Urban Climate and Resiliency Workshop

1748712(冈萨雷斯)。这次研讨会将召集来自不同学科的美国专家，讨论城市气候系统的具体科学主题，同时促进学生和博士后研究员的更广泛参与。研讨会将于2018年8月在纽约市举行。讲习班的具体成果是：(A)提高对特大城市在全球气候系统中的作用的认识；(B)可伸缩、适应气候变化的城市环境战略；(C)减少城市温室气体排放的有效技术和社会经济干预措施概述(通过低碳交通、低碳建筑、数据科学)。成果将是一份有文件记录的研究和教育议程，以及确定以下内容的路线图：(A)执行议程所需的科学差距、合作研究项目和数据来源；(B)所需资源；(C)利益攸关方参与；(D)科学和社会效益。这些讨论、预期的路线图和长期行动将旨在为美国各地城市的科学界、城市规划界和应急人员带来重大好处。

1748712 (Gonzalez). This workshop will convene U.S. experts from a diverse set of disciplines to address specific science topics of the urban-climate system, while facilitating a broader participation of students and post-doctoral fellows. The workshop will be held in August 2018 in New York City. Specific outcomes of the workshop are targeted to be (a) improved understanding of the role of megacities in the global climate system, (b) strategies for scalable climate-resilient urban environments, and (c) an outline of effective technological and socioeconomic interventions to reduce atmospheric greenhouse emissions from cities (via low carbon transportation, low carbon buildings, data science). The outcomes will be a documented research and educational agenda, as well as road maps identifying: (a) scientific gaps, collaborative research projects, and data sources to needed to implement the agenda; (b) resources needed; (c) stakeholder involvement; and (d) scientific and societal benefits. These discussions, expected road maps, and long term actions will be designed to have significant benefits to the scientific community, the urban planning community, and emergency responders in cities across the U.S.
