A Workshop on Using Paleo-climate Model/Data Comparisons to Constrain Future Projections and Sensitivities; Honolulu, Hawaii; March 1-3, 2012

该奖项将部分支持一个研讨会，以帮助组织古气候建模人员和数据生成人员参与IPCC AR 5的审议。 具体而言，该奖项将用于支持六名早期职业研究人员和研究生参加研讨会的差旅费，并为会议期间的膳食提供一些支持。 古气候建模/数据研究活动首次被纳入耦合建模相互比较项目（CMIP 5）活动。 研讨会的一个主要目标是确保古气候研究人员了解在这些建模/数据比较活动中应用的最佳实践。 研讨会的成果应该是更好的方法，利用古气候模型/数据活动来推断气候对外部强迫的敏感性，以及考虑模型输出和古气候代用指标重建中的不确定性的战略。

This award will partially support a workshop to help organize paleoclimate modelers and data generators for participation in the IPCC AR5 deliberations. Specifically, the award will be used to support the travel costs for six early career researchers and graduate students to participate in the workshop as well as provide some support for meals during the meeting. For the first time, paleoclimate modeling/data research activities are being incorporated into the Coupled Modeling Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) activities. A major goal of the workshop is to ensure that the community of paleoclimate researchers is aware of the best practices to be applied in these modeling/data comparison activities. The outcome of the workshop should be better approaches for using paleoclimate model/data activities to infer climate sensitivities to external forcings and strategies to account for uncertainties in both the model output and paleoclimate proxy reconstructions.
