Urban Climate and Resiliency Workshop

1748712 (Gonzalez)。该研讨会将召集来自不同学科的美国专家，讨论城市气候系统的具体科学主题，同时促进学生和博士后研究员的更广泛参与。该研讨会将于2018年8月在纽约市举行。研讨会的具体成果旨在：(a)提高对特大城市在全球气候系统中的作用的理解，(b)可扩展的气候适应型城市环境战略，以及(c)概述有效的技术和社会经济干预措施，以减少城市的大气温室气体排放（通过低碳交通、低碳建筑、数据科学）。其成果将是一份成文的研究和教育议程，以及确定：(a)科学差距、合作研究项目和实施议程所需的数据来源的路线图；(b)所需资源；(c)利益相关者的参与；(d)科学和社会效益。这些讨论、预期的路线图和长期行动将为科学界、城市规划界和美国各城市的应急响应人员带来重大利益

1748712 (Gonzalez). This workshop will convene U.S. experts from a diverse set of disciplines to address specific science topics of the urban-climate system, while facilitating a broader participation of students and post-doctoral fellows. The workshop will be held in August 2018 in New York City. Specific outcomes of the workshop are targeted to be (a) improved understanding of the role of megacities in the global climate system, (b) strategies for scalable climate-resilient urban environments, and (c) an outline of effective technological and socioeconomic interventions to reduce atmospheric greenhouse emissions from cities (via low carbon transportation, low carbon buildings, data science). The outcomes will be a documented research and educational agenda, as well as road maps identifying: (a) scientific gaps, collaborative research projects, and data sources to needed to implement the agenda; (b) resources needed; (c) stakeholder involvement; and (d) scientific and societal benefits. These discussions, expected road maps, and long term actions will be designed to have significant benefits to the scientific community, the urban planning community, and emergency responders in cities across the U.S.
