International Earth System Science PostDoc Network

我们在地球系统科学中面临的许多挑战不仅需要在气候系统模型中表示复杂的物理过程，而且需要将生物地球化学、化学和人类管理与气候相结合。此外，全球研究界将需要能够使政策和决策与环境和气候因素相互作用的组成部分。作为迈向全面地球系统科学方法的一步，将建立一个地球系统科学国际博士后科学家网络。这一网络将作为一种机制，促进下一代科学家的发展，使之越来越多地贯穿各个领域，这将是未来地球系统建模所需要的。一个重要的内容将是让发展中国家的参与者既在快速变化和高度脆弱的环境中贡献他们的专业知识，又为未来的科学项目在全球重要地区培养人力资源。

Many of the challenges we face in earth system science require not only the representation of complex physical processes in climate system models but coupling biogeochemistry, chemistry and the human management with climate. Additionally, the global research community will require components that allow interactions between policy and decision making with environmental and climate considerations. As a step towards a full earth system science approach, an international postdoctoral scientist network for earth system science will be established. This network will serve as a mechanism for promoting the development of the next generation of scientists to be increasingly cross-cutting as will be required by the future of Earth system modeling. An important element will be including participants from developing countries to both contribute their expertise in quickly changing and highly vulnerable environments, as well as to build the human resources in important regions of the globe for future science projects.
