Workshop on New Particle Formation in the Atmosphere; Saint Paul, Minneapolis; September 8-9, 2006

这个奖支持一个关于大气中新粒子形成的研讨会。研讨会将于2006年9月8日至9日在明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯地区举行，并将利用已经在圣保罗参加定于9月10日至16日举行的国际气溶胶会议的科学家的专业知识。研讨会将包括讲座和海报环节，并将重点关注由大气光化学过程形成的新粒子。这是该系列的第二次会议。研讨会的目标是加强对新粒子形成与云凝结核（CCN）之间关系的认识。如果发现新的颗粒形成会影响CCN浓度，这将成为气候模拟中的一个重要变量。约50名与会者将受邀参加研讨会。

This award supports a Workshop on New Particle Formation in the Atmosphere. The workshop will take place September 8-9, 2006 in the Minneapolis, MN area, and will take advantage of the expertise of the scientists that will already be in St. Paul for the International Aerosol Conference, scheduled for September 10-16. The workshop will include lectures and a poster session, and will focus on new particles formed by atmospheric photochemical processes. This is the second meeting in the series. The goal of the workshop will be to enhance knowledge of the relationship between new particle formation and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). If new particle formation is found to affect CCN concentrations, this will become an important variable in climate modeling. Around 50 attendees will be invited to attend the workshop.
