U.S.-Japan Bilateral Workshop: The Tropical Tropopause Layer

该项目将通过在檀香山召开双边研讨会，讨论该领域的研究和教育问题，促进美国和日本研究热带对流层顶的科学家之间的合作。这是美日研究的一个欠发达领域，也是及时的。学生和年轻研究人员的大力支持。其意义和重要性在于成果包括更好地了解对流层气候和平流层化学。

This project will catalyze collaborations between US and Japanese scientists working on the Tropical Tropopause Layer by convening a bilateral workshop in Honolulu to discuss research and educational questions in this field. This is an underdeveloped area of US-Japan research and is timely. There is significant support of students and young researchers. Significance and importance are that outcomes include better understanding of Tropospheric climate and stratospheric chemistry.
