摘要ATM-9729145 Markovich，Vera University of科罗拉多标题：支持科学会议PEP 1：美洲的古气候; 1998年3月16-20日，委内瑞拉梅里达 该奖项支持美洲极地-赤道-极地古气候（PEP 1）项目的第一次科学会议。 这次研讨会将于1998年3月16日至20日在委内瑞拉梅里达举行，由安第斯山脉大学（安第斯山脉热带雨林研究中心，CIELAT和美洲环境和领土开发研究中心，CIDIAT）主办。 这次会议的目的是审查自1993年启动PEP 1项目以来取得的进展。 PEP 1项目旨在进一步了解过去和现在的半球间气候联系。 梅里达会议将讨论气候变异性和美洲气候变化的性质、时间和作用力的半球间方面，并提供来自大气、海洋陆地和极地冰盖领域的信息。 这些主题是：现代气候模式和变率，过去2000年的气候变率，厄尔尼诺/南方涛动气候变率和气候变化的相关性，中全新世气候，晚冰期气候变率，末次冰期最大的气候，以及气候变化的人类因素。

Abstract ATM-9729145 Markgraf, Vera University of Colorado Title: Support for the Scientific Meeting PEP 1: Paleoclimate of the Americas; March 16-20, 1998 in Merida, Venezuela This award supports the first scientific meeting of the Pole- Equator-Pole Paleoclimate of the Americas (PEP 1) Project. It will be held in Merida, Venezuela, March 16 to 20, 1998, under the auspices of the Universidad de Los Andes (Centro de Investigaciones Ecologicas de Los Andes Tropicales, CIELAT, and Centro InterAmericano De Desarollo e Investigacion Ambiental y Territorial, CIDIAT). The objective of this meeting is to review the progress achieved since the 1993 initiation of the PEP 1 Project. The PEP 1 Project is designed to further our understanding of inter-hemispheric climate linkages, past and present. The Merida meeting will address inter-hemispheric aspects of character, timing, and forcing of climate variability and climate change in the Americas and present information from the atmospheric, marine terrestrial and polar ice caps realms. The topics are: Modern Climate Modes and Variability, Last 2000 Years of Climate Variability, El Nino/Southern Oscillation Climate Variability and Teleconnections, Mid-Holocene Climates, Late Glacial Climate Variability, Climate of the Last Glacial Maximum, and Human Dimensions of Climate Change.
