Workshop on Atlantic Basin Paleohurricane Reconstructions from High Resolution Records; Columbia, South Carolina; November 12-14, 2000

该奖项是对一个研讨会的奖励，该研讨会旨在根据高分辨率代理记录网络制定工作计划，根据高分辨率代理记录网络重建1851年之前大西洋盆地过去2000年的详细飓风活动。讲习班的主要主题将是：1)评估适用于从不同殖民地档案中重建大西洋飓风的文献数据的质量和数量；2)讨论和设计将不同殖民地档案、树轮和沉积物记录合并在一起的方法，以便从数量上重建与现代(20世纪)飓风记录有关的大西洋飓风；3)解决关键的古气候问题和可从现代记录之前的较长大西洋飓风记录中得到答案的潜在强迫机制(如ENSO)。

This award is for a workshop to develop a working plan on reconstructing detailed pre-1851 hurricane activity for the Atlantic Basin for the last 2000 years from a network of high resolution proxy records. The main workshop themes will be: 1) to assess the quality and quantity of documentary data suitable for reconstruction of Atlantic hurricanes from the different colonial archives, 2) to discuss and devise methodologies for merging different colonial archives, tree-ring, and sediment records together in order to reconstruct Atlantic hurricanes quantitatively as they relate with the modern (20th century) hurricane record, and 3) to address the key paleoclimatic issues and potential forcing mechanisms (e.g. ENSO) that can be answered from longer records of Atlantic hurricanes prior to the modern record.
