From Global Prediction to Local Action: A workshop proposal to bring climate scientists, economists and mathematicians together at the Joint Math Meetings in San Diego, Jan. 2008

该奖项将资助10名受邀演讲者和12名初级研究人员参加2008年1月在圣地亚哥举行的联合数学会议上举行的“从全球预测到地方行动”研讨会的旅费和当地费用。 该研讨会是一个更大的倡议，使数学界参与气候变化研究和培训的一部分。 该研讨会包括两个小型讨论会和分组讨论，并围绕SIAM邀请地址进行编程，该地址将由加州大学伯克利分校伯克利环境研究所联合主任兼大气科学教授伊内兹冯教授提供。 组委会由M. L. Zeeman（Bowdoin College and Cornell University），I. Fung（加州大学伯克利分校）和C.琼斯（北卡罗来纳州查佩尔山大学和沃里克大学）。 将通过互联网散发一份概述讲习班讨论情况的报告。

ABSTRACTThis award will fund travel and local expenses of ten invited speakers and 12 junior researchers to attend a workshop on "From Global Prediction to Local Action," at the Joint Math Meetings in San Diego, Jan. 2008. The workshop is part of a larger initiative to engage the mathematics community in climate change research and training. The workshop features two minisymposia and discussions in break-out groups, and is programmed around the SIAM Invited Address, which will be given by Professor Inez Fung, Professor of Atmospheric Science and Co-Director Berkeley Institute of the Environment, UC Berkeley. The Organizing Committee consists of M. L. Zeeman (Bowdoin College and Cornell University), I. Fung (University of California, Berkeley), and C. Jones (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and University of Warwick). A report summarizing the workshop proceedings will be disseminated via the Internet.
