International Project Office for the Analysis, Integration and Modeling of the Earth System (AIMES)

正在制定一个新的国际项目，题为“地球系统的分析、综合和建模”（AIMES），以加强、改进和扩大以前的全球分析、综合和建模（GAIM）项目，作为研究整个地球系统的一项核心国际跨学科活动。 AIMES将促进将人类科学和自然科学联系起来进行地球系统分析的活动。具体而言，AIMES将侧重于两个专题方法：物理/地球化学系统的耦合理解;以及物理地球系统的人类层面界面。 新的AIMES项目办公室将通过开发以下方面的扶持性项目来帮助AIMES科学家和对该领域感兴趣的整个研究界：工具和技术，特别是高级建模技术;以及快速通道倡议，例如，新的AIMES项目内的研究活动将来自正在进行的GAIM活动和新的倡议。 这将导致人类层面项目的发展与完全耦合模型的进步之间的协同作用日益增强，从而能够更全面和更快地将历史上的人类影响纳入地球系统模型，从而深入了解敏感性分析，这将有助于制定未来的情景。

A new international project, entitled 'Analysis, Integration and Modeling of the Earth System' (AIMES), is being established to build on, improve and expand the former Global Analysis, Integration and Modeling (GAIM) project as a central international and interdisciplinary activity on the study Earth System as a whole. AIMES will promote activities that link the human and physical sciences for Earth system analysis. Specifically, AIMES will focus on two thematic approaches: coupled understanding of the physical/biogeochemical Earth system; and the human dimensions interface to the physical Earth system. The new AIMES Project Office will aid AIMES scientists and the overall research community interested in this area by developing enabling projects on: tools and techniques, especially advanced modeling techniques; and fast-track Initiatives, e.g., rapid assessments in support of science and policy uncertainties.Research activities within the new AIMES project will be derived from both ongoing GAIM activities and new initiatives. These will lead to a growing synergism between development of human dimensions projects and advancement of fully coupled models that would allow the fuller and accelerated inclusion of historical human impacts into Earth System models, providing insights into sensitivity analyses that will be useful in developing future scenarios.
