PREEVENTS Track 1: Meteorology and Impacts of Correlated Climate Extremes: New York, NY: May 28-31, 2019

该研讨会将汇集各种气候科学家和气候影响研究人员，以建立相关气候极端事件的知识状态，调查当前的研究，并描绘未来的研究计划和优先事项。其目的是扩大和整合考虑相关性的研究人员和从业人员群体，无论是涉及多个变量极端的气候事件（复合）;同时发生但在空间上分开的事件（并发）;还是连续或持续影响同一地点的事件。通过跨学科对话，组织者将通过各种指导和自由形式的讨论来促进对话，研讨会将有助于澄清和提炼仍然在很大程度上被距离和专业化分开的调查路线。由此产生的主题将在一个透视图中进一步强调，该透视图将以电子方式提供。该奖项为不同的美国人提供旅行支持-学生和早期职业科学家。该奖项将使总部设在荷兰的复合事件研究的先驱之一能够参与其中。相关的气候极端现象以各种形式存在，由于人为气候变化，预计其频率和严重程度将大大增加。迄今为止，研究这些极端现象的不同群体之间的交流很少，导致定义缺乏一致性，对这些事件及其相关风险的机制缺乏了解。本次研讨会将侧重于正在进行的工作，以了解统计，动力学和热力学影响相关的气候极端的前沿，与开始建立一个共同的框架，围绕未来的工作可以设计一个特定的目标。与会者将包括水文学、气候动力学、热带气候学、统计学和其他领域的专家，他们之间将进行结构化对话，以确保实现知识的交叉交流。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This workshop will bring together a diverse range of climate scientists and climate-impacts researchers to establish the state of knowledge of correlated climate extremes, survey current research, and delineate future research programs and priorities. The intention is to expand and integrate the community of researchers and practitioners considering correlation, whether it involves climate events which are extreme in multiple variables (compound); events which are simultaneous but separated in space (concurrent); or events which impact the same location sequentially or persistently. Through cross-disciplinary dialogue, which the organizers will foster through a variety of guided and freeform discussions, the workshop will help clarify and distill lines of inquiry that are still largely separated by distance and specialization. The resultant themes will be emphasized further in a perspectives piece that will be made publically available. This award provides travel support for diverse U.S.-based students and early-career scientists. The award will enable participation of one of the pioneers in the study of compound events who is based in the Netherlands.Correlated climate extremes exist in a variety of forms and are expected to increase greatly in frequency and severity as a consequence of anthropogenic climate change. There has so far been very little communication among the different communities that study such extremes, leading to a lack of consistency in definitions and a paucity of understanding of the mechanisms that underlie these events and their associated risks. This workshop will focus on the cutting edge of work being done to understand statistics, dynamics, and thermodynamics affecting correlated climate extremes, with a particular goal of beginning to build a common framework around which future work can be designed. The attendees will comprise experts in hydrology, climate dynamics, tropical climatology, statistics, and other fields among whom structured dialogue will be fostered in order to ensure that intellectual cross-communication is achieved.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
