The role of ecosystem services in adaptation to global change

这笔拨款是为了履行美国政府在《美洲气候变化研究所条约》第21次缔约方会议上承担的义务。在这次会议上，《建立美洲气候变化研究所条约》的签署国同意为支持美洲气候变化研究所活动的研究预算捐款。该奖项支持一系列小型项目，这些项目将补充、扩展和完成CRN3计划，以进一步发展美洲跨学科解决方案导向的科学。该时间表将允许在正在进行的CRN项目的无成本延期下与CRN3活动进行协调。最多3个国际合作研究网络将获得资助，进行为期两年的生态系统服务在适应全球变化中的作用研究，这一主题旨在加强在全球变化和可持续性的人类和生物物理方面的密切合作。

This grant fulfills a U.S. Government obligation incurred at the Twenty-first Meeting of the IAI Conference of the Parties, whereby signatories of the Treaty Establishing the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) agreed to contributions towards a research budget supporting the activities of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research. This award supports a series of small projects that will supplement, expand and complete the CRN3 program towards further development of interdisciplinary solution-oriented science in the Americas. The timeline will allow for coordination with CRN3 activities under a no-cost extension for ongoing CRN projects. Up to 3 international collaborative research networks will be funded for 2 years of research on the role of ecosystem services in adaptation to global change, a theme framed to reinforce close collaborations on the human and biophysical dimensions of global change and sustainability.
