The inter-institutional and multi-national character of this proposed training center will benefit from the ongoing participation of scientists from institutions throughout the world. This Phase I proposal will focus on the necessary activities to design the "Training and Education Center in Radar Science and Technologies" which will be the objective of a Phase II proposal. The design activities will encompass 2 meetings to determine the center's characteristics and its educational program, the level and number of students, and the types of degrees or certificates to be conferred. In addition, there will be discussion regarding professors and the needs of other Latin American countries in the formation of their research teams (current or planned). Radars are very powerful tools for remote sensing of the atmosphere. Radar techniques may be essential for many of the observations required in the study of the following Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) research themes: High Latitude Processes; El Ni=F1o-Southern Oscillation and Interannual Climate Variability, and Ocean-Land Atmospheric Interaction in the Intertropical Americas. Specifically, radar techniques can assist in observations which address the ozone problem, ocean surface currents, sea state, iceberg drifts at high lati tudes, the effects of the El Ni=F1o-Southern Oscillation phenomenon, and other air-sea interactions. This workshop will prepare a Phase II proposal to establish a center for training and education in radar remote sensing science and technology so that scientists in the region can better use radar observations. The training will be at the post-graduate level and will involve professors and students in research projects in the above mentioned topics. %%% This proposal will allow the planning of an Inter-American training center for radar remote sensing in Peru, using the world-class research infrastructure that already exists at Piura and Jicamarca. The inter-institutional and multi-national character of this proposed training center will benefit from the ongoing participation of scientists from institutions throughout the world. This Phase I proposal will focus on the necessary activities to design the "Training and Education Center in Radar Science and Technologies" which will be the objective of a Phase II proposal. The design activities will encompass 2 meetings to determine the center's characteristics and its educational program, the level and number of students, and the types of degrees or certificates to be conferred. In addition, there will be discussion regarding professors and the needs of other Latin American countries in the formation of their research teams (current or planned). This proposal for the planning of a center for training and education in radar remote sensing science and technology addresses the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) cross-cutting theme of training and education. In addition, this proposed center will provide training in radar techniques which may be essential for may of the observations required in the study of the following IAI priority research themes: High Latitude Processes; El Ni=F1o-Southern Oscillation and Interannual Climate Variability, and Ocean-Land Atmospheric I nteraction in the Intertropical Americas. The Jicamarca Radar Observatory, the Peruvian Mesosphere-Stratosphere-Troposphere radar in Antarctica, and the Piura Wind-Profiler Radar (all incorporated in this proposed training center) will be available for scientists from the Americas to use. A fundamental aim of the project is to use this center to transfer world-class radar techniques to other research groups in order to increase the potential of radars to achieve the goals of the IAI. The following countries are participating in the organization of this proposal: Peru and the United States. These countries are Member States of the IAI, a U.S. initiative to stimulate cooperative research on global change issues among the scientific institutions of the Americas. The U.S. National Science Foundation is the U.S. Government agency designated to carry out U.S. responsibilities within the IAI. *** --========================_13392216==_--
