2005 SOLAS Summer School

温室气体和气溶胶的排放越来越多地被认为是对生活质量和世界经济的威胁。这一威胁需要密切观察、预测能力和政策决策。需要对温室气体和气雾源和汇进行负责任的检测、归类和核实。这种核查有赖于在区域和全球两级对温室气体和气溶胶的海-气交换进行量化。在《京都议定书》之后，监测温室气体的政治必要性远远超出了科学的理解。新的表层海洋-低层大气研究国际研究计划(SOLAS，由国际地球物理研究所赞助)旨在实现对海洋和大气之间关键的生物地化-物理相互作用和反馈的定量了解，同时了解这种耦合系统如何影响气候、天气和环境变化。该奖项授予哥伦比亚大学，将为16名美国学生、3名讲师和2名技术人员提供旅行和后勤支持，参加将于2005年(http://www.uea.ac.uk/env/solas/summerschool/).举办的第二届国际海洋低层大气研究暑期班该学院让年轻的研究人员与SOLAS研究不同部分的顶尖科学家接触。学校使用理论框架、实践练习和实验室实验来促进优化的学习环境。最重要的是，该学院为对SOLAS科学问题感兴趣的年轻研究人员提供了相互认识并结成联盟的机会，能够应对该领域和社会未来面临的重大挑战。我们目前的新科学家最有可能迎接解决重大地球系统问题的挑战。为此，必须加强和促进美国与其他国际科学界在这一领域的互动。该学院在不同国籍和背景的成熟科学家之间建立了必要的联系，这种联系将随着这些学生本身成为该领域的领导者而得到发扬光大。

ABSTRACTOCE-0537073Greenhouse gas and aerosol emissions are increasingly recognized as a threat to the quality of life as well as to the economies of the world. This threat requires close observation, forecasting capabilities, and policy decisions. Accountable detection, attribution, and verification of greenhouse gas and aerosol sources and sinks are required. Such verification relies on the quantification of air-sea exchange of greenhouse gases and aerosols, both at the regional and global levels. In the wake of the Kyoto agreement, the political imperative for monitoring greenhouse gases is running well ahead of scientific understanding. The new international research initiative on the Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS, sponsored by IGBP/SCOR/CACGP/WCRP) aims to achieve quantitative understanding of key biogeochemical-physical interactions and feedbacks between the ocean and the atmosphere, while understanding how this coupled system affects and is affected by climate, weather and environmental change.This award to Columbia University will provide travel and logistical support for sixteen U.S. students, three lecturers, and two technicians to participate in the 2nd International SOLAS Summer School to be held in 2005 (http://www.uea.ac.uk/env/solas/summerschool/). The School brings young researchers in contact with leading scientists of different components of SOLAS research. The school uses a theoretical framework, practical exercises, and laboratory experiments to promote an enhanced learning environment. Most importantly, the school provides the opportunity for young researchers interested in SOLAS science issues to meet one another and to form alliances capable of addressing the significant future challenges that face the field and society. It is our current new scientists who are most likely to meet the challenges of solving significant Earth system problems. For this reason, interaction between the US and other international scientific communities in this field must be strengthened and promoted. The school forges the necessary bonds between maturing scientists of different nationalities and backgrounds, which will be carried forward as these students become, themselves, leaders in the field.
