AbstractATM-9904344Seltzer, Geoffrey 0.Syracuse UniversityTitle: Coordination of PEP I Research ActivitiesThis proposal seeks funds for coordination of research activities along the Pole-Equator-Pole I (PEP I) transect of the Past Global Changes (PAGES) project. Prior grants to V. Markgraf; INSTAAR, established the first PEP I office in 1993. Project leadership has now been transferred to G. Seltzer, Syracuse University, and the requested funds will be used to continue the activities of the PEP I office over the next five years.In March 1998 a meeting of PEP I was held in Merida, Venezuela, which ended the first five years of coordinated activity along this transect. The meeting preceded the open science meeting of PAGES, which was held in London, England, in May 1998. As an outcome of these two meetings, many areas of scientific focus warrant continued coordination and analysis during the next phase of PEP I activity. Based on these areas of emphasis, themes will be chosen for a series of annual workshops. The intent of the workshops will be to address the following questions: (1) what is the nature of the extant paleodata in the Americas and where are the critical gaps in these data, especially in the tropics and South America? (2) what is the current understanding of climatic teleconnections between the northern and southern hemispheres with regard to these overriding themes? and (3) other than a compendium of current projects and data, how can a synthesis of observations and interpretations be developed for these themes? These workshops will culminate in the next PEPI science meeting at which these syntheses on the proposed themes as well as other questions will be presented and published.The role of the PEP I office in carrying out these objectives will be to help organizers obtain funding for these workshops by providing preliminary focus, ideas, and contacts. The project leader of PEPI will continue to act as the representative of the PEP I transect to meetings of PAGES and other related projects. Contact with the scientific community will be maintained through the PAGES and IGBP newsletters and through the World Wide Web. Finally, the PEP I office will organize the next science meeting of the transect.

摘要ATM-9904344Seltzer，Geoffrey 0.雪城大学标题：PEP I 研究活动的协调本提案寻求资金，用于协调过去全球变化 (PAGES) 项目的极地-赤道-极 I (PEP I) 断面的研究活动。先前授予 V. Markgraf 的资助； INSTAAR于1993年建立了第一个PEP I办公室。项目领导现已移交给雪城大学的G. Seltzer，所请求的资金将用于在未来五年内继续PEP I办公室的活动。1998年3月在委内瑞拉梅里达举行了一次 PEP I 会议，结束了沿该断面的头五年协调活动。这次会议是 PAGES 开放科学会议之前的会议，该会议于 1998 年 5 月在英国伦敦举行。作为这两次会议的成果，许多科学焦点领域需要在 PEP I 活动的下一阶段继续进行协调和分析。根据这些重点领域，将为一系列年度研讨会选择主题。研讨会的目的是解决以下问题：（1）美洲现存古数据的性质是什么，这些数据的关键差距在哪里，特别是在热带和南美洲？ (2) 目前对北半球和南半球之间的气候遥相关在这些首要主题方面的理解是什么？ (3) 除了当前项目和数据的概要之外，如何对这些主题进行观察和解释的综合？这些研讨会将在下一次 PEPI 科学会议上达到高潮，会上将提出并出版这些关于拟议主题以及其他问题的综合报告。PEP I 办公室在实现这些目标中的作用将是帮助组织者获得这些项目的资金通过提供初步重点、想法和联系方式举办研讨会。 PEPI的项目负责人将继续作为PEP I横断面的代表参加PAGES和其他相关项目的会议。将通过 PAGES 和 IGBP 时事通讯以及万维网与科学界保持联系。最后，PEP I 办公室将组织该样带的下一次科学会议。
