上层海洋—低层大气科学研究计划

SURFACE OCEAN-LOW ATMOSPHERE STUDY

海洋和大气是地球系统的重要组成部分,其在全球气候变化中具有重要作用。上层海洋与低层大气研究(SOLAS)作为IGBPII第一个新的核心计划,以海洋中深度在100m以上的水层和1000m以下的大气边界层为主要研究对象,通过多学科的交叉研究,以揭示海洋与大气相互作用的物理和生物地球化学过程耦合及其在气候变化中的作用。SOLAS科学计划得到了世界各国的积极响应,已有16个国家向国际SOLAS科学委员会提交了SOLAS进展状况的国家报告。我国也制定了自己的科学研究计划,重点研究中国近海的大气物质入海、海洋温室气体排放、海—气界面上的物质和能量交换过程及其对气候和环境的影响和反馈。

Ocean and atmosphere are the most important parts of earth system, which have exerted great effects on global climate change. As the first new project in IGBP II, Surface OceanLow Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) will focus on research topics of linked oceanatmosphere interactions at the oceanatmosphere interface, including the atmospheric boundary layer (typically to about 1 km) and the upperocean boundary layer (typically 100m). SOLAS can contribute to our understanding of the interaction processes and mechanisms between ocean and atmosphere by interdisciplinarity studies. SOLAS science is underway in many countries. Reports on the status of SOLAS activity in 16 countries are received. China has drawn the draft national science plan, which mainly focus on scientific questions in Chinese coastal areas about the input of atmospheric species to the sea, the emissions of green house gases from the sea, exchange processes at the air-sea interface in order to understand and quantify the role that oceanatmosphere interactions play in the regulation of climate and environmental changes. 
