项目摘要

Intellectual Merit: The topic of coastal ocean simulation is central to many scientific questions and engineering challenges in ocean and environmental science today. The increase in human population in coastal regions, with concomitant exacerbation of issues associated with marine resource management, enforcement and security, has led to an increase in the importance of a quantitative understanding and prediction of coastal processes. All of these activities emphasize the expanding public and national interest in understanding coastal ocean phenomena, in their natural multi-disciplinary setting. Coastal Ocean simulation today requires physical, biological and geological simulations. The couplings of these sub-fields have led to specific outcomes of public and scientific interest: site-specific population dynamics of important species, environmental impacts of industrial actions, harmful algal blooms, offshore drilling, changes in coastal geomorphology, and marine operations (which include military and civilian issues).This Gordon Research Conference is devoted to the understanding and prediction of processes occurring in the estuarine, shelf, and shelf-break regions of the ocean. These are regions of the marine system that are subject to intense human forcing and interaction.Broader Impacts: This conference seeks, as do all GRC's, to gather leading people in the field and to bring them into contact with each other and with graduate students in relevant disciplines in an effort to seed new thoughts across the field. During this year's program eight of the thirty speakers and discussion leaders are women.

智力优点：海岸海洋模拟的话题是当今海洋和环境科学中许多科学问题和工程挑战的核心。沿海地区人口的增加，加剧了与海洋资源管理，执法和安全有关的问题，导致对沿海过程的定量理解和预测的重要性提高。所有这些活动都强调了在自然的多学科环境中，公众和国家对了解沿海海洋现象的不断扩展。如今，沿海海洋模拟需要物理，生物学和地质模拟。这些子场的耦合导致了公众和科学兴趣的特定结果：重要物种的特定地点人群动态，工业行动的环境影响，有害的藻华，离岸钻探，沿海地貌的变化，沿海地貌学的变化以及海洋运营（包括军事和平民问题）。海洋的货架破裂地区。这些是海洋系统的区域，受到强烈的人类强迫和互动。在今年的计划中，有30名演讲者和讨论负责人是女性。
