Support for a Symposium Honoring Isaac Held's Contributions to Atmospheric and Climate Dynamics; Princeton, New Jersey; October 29-31, 2018

三十多年来，伊萨克·赫尔德博士一直是气候动力学领域的领导者，他对地球气候动力学的研究做出了基础性和原创性的贡献，从大气环流理论、行星波动动力学、气候敏感性和地球物理湍流，到领导开发当前一代气候模型。他对分层建模的倡导和实践，跨越了理论和计算密集型模拟之间的差距，并利用理论大气动力学的见解来理解维持当前气候和在气候变化下工作的力量，这些都启发了大气动力学和气候动力学领域的许多人。为期三天的研讨会将于2018年10月29日（星期一）至10月31日（星期三）在普林斯顿大学举行，旨在促进大气动力学和气候动力学领域的跨学科科学交流，并在held博士做出巨大贡献的领域提供前瞻性观点和新方向。这次以科学为中心的研讨会由一系列邀请演讲组成，重点关注5个研究主题，这些主题使人们想起艾萨克·赫尔德所倡导的方法：大气环流理论、遥相关、气候变化的动力学见解、地球物理湍流和热带动力学。研讨会将提供一个机会，让来自这些领域的本科生/研究生、早期职业科学家和成熟的研究人员/教育工作者在一起进行对话。通过这项资助提供的资金将用于支付学生，博士后和早期职业研究人员的旅费。旅游基金将向社区做广告，并通过竞争程序发放。被邀请的演讲将通过会议网站提供给社区，这有助于使全世界的研究界迅速获得这些材料。对科学和教育的贡献将通过会议上的个人交流和对学生参与的教育强调来实现。使用一个有影响力的研究人员，如博士赫尔德的榜样，提供了鼓舞人心的见解，主题和方法，帮助新一代解决复杂的挑战，层次和地球系统建模推进天气和气候动力学研究。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Dr. Issac Held has been a leader in the field of climate dynamics for over three decades, and has made fundamental and original contributions to the study of the dynamics of Earth's climate, ranging from theory of the atmospheric circulation, planetary wave dynamics, climate sensitivities, and geophysical turbulence to leadership in the developing the current generation of climate models. His advocacy and practice of hierarchical modeling, spanning the gap between theories and computationally intensive simulations, and using insights from theoretical atmospheric dynamics to understand the forces maintaining the current climate and at work under climate change have inspired many across the fields of atmospheric dynamics and climate dynamics. The three-day symposium, to be held at Princeton University on Monday, October 29 through Wednesday, October 31, 2018, aims to foster cross-disciplinary scientific exchange at the interface of the fields of atmospheric dynamics and climate dynamics and provide forward-looking perspectives and new directions in the areas to which Dr. Held has contributed greatly. The science-focused symposium consists of a series of invited presentations focusing on 5 research topics that bring in mind the approaches championed by Isaac Held: Theory of the atmospheric circulation, Teleconnections, Dynamical insights on climate change, Geophysical turbulence, and Tropical dynamics. The symposium will provide an opportunity to bring undergraduate/graduate students, early career scientists, and established researchers/educators from across these areas together in dialogue.Funds provided through this grant will be used to cover the travel costs of students, postdocs, and early-career researchers. Travel funds will be advertised to the community and made available through a competitive process. The invited presentation will be made available to the community through the meeting website, which helps make the material rapidly accessible to the research community worldwide. The contribution to the science and to education will come through personal exchanges at the meeting and through the educational emphasis on involvement of students. Using the role model of an influential researcher, such as Dr. Held, provides inspiring insights into themes and approaches that help the new generation tackle complex challenges of hierarchical and earth system modelling for advancing weather and climate dynamics research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
