CAS-Climate: National Science Foundation (NSF) Confluence Workshop on Climate Science to Climate Action Across Global Cities; San Francisco, California; December 2023

该奖项为2023年在旧金山举行的美国地球物理联合会年会上举办的以城市气候为重点的研讨会提供资金。研讨会的目的是将研究城市气候的研究人员与在全球城市实施气候解决方案的个人聚集在一起。应该通过提高气候界制定可操作战略的能力来感受到讲习班的影响，这些战略将导致以使用为灵感的城市研究，其结果可以应用于现实世界的问题。研讨会将代表来自世界各地的各种观点。会议领导人指出，基础和应用气候研究与气候行动之间存在着巨大的脱节，主要表现在语言差异、已发表的研究缺乏直接影响、以及对气候行动者正在实施的解决方案缺乏理解。讲习班将服务于下列目标：(i)确定与水、能源、热、空气质量和气候适应相关的城市可持续性解决方案在全球城市中的关键维度；（ii）确定如何通过将研究人员与国际实践者社区整合来加强城市可持续性解决方案的研究；（ii）交流知识以加速气候行动，以适应和减轻现有和未来的气候压力；（iv）弥合城市气候研究之间的差距。气候行动计划，并在城市或社区范围内实施。本次研讨会由物理与动力气象学、气候与大尺度动力学和环境可持续性项目共同资助。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。

This award funds an urban climate-focused workshop at the 2023 American Geophysical Union Annual Meeting in San Francisco. The intent of the workshop is to bring together researchers that are working on urban climate with individuals that are implementing climate solutions in global cities. The impact of the workshop should be felt through the improved ability of the climate community to develop actionable strategies that will lead to use-inspired urban research, the results of which can be applied to real-world problems. The workshop will represent a diverse range of viewpoints from across the globe.The conference leaders make the case that there is a substantial disconnect between basic and applied climate research and climate action in terms of language gaps, the lack of direct impact of published research, and the lack of understanding of the solutions that climate actors are implementing. The workshop will serve the following objectives: (i) identify key dimensions along which urban sustainability solutions related to water, energy, heat, air quality, and climate adaptation vary across global cities, (ii) identify how research on urban sustainability solutions is enhanced by integrating researchers with an international community of practitioners, (ii) exchange knowledge to accelerate climate action to adapt and mitigate existing and future climate stressors, and (iv) bridge the gaps between urban climate research, climate action plans, and implementing them on a city or neighborhood scales.This workshop is co-funded by the Physical and Dynamic Meteorology, Climate and Large-scale Dynamics, and Environmental Sustainability programs.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.
