Conference on


The Hadley Circulation: Present, Past and Future


November 12-15, 2002
International Pacific Research Center
Honolulu, Hawaii


Logistical information for participants


The Hadley circulation spans half of the surface area of the globe, and variability within this system affects the lives of billions of people. Our understanding of this variability is limited to the last century of instrumental measurements, to the even shorter record of satellite-derived observations, or to associated modeling studies aimed at simulating variability in the tropics associated with the Hadley circulation.

Objective: to bring together climatologists and paleoclimatologists to report on the current understanding of the Hadley circulation, to examine paleoclimatic records that provide evidence of past variability in this system, and model simulations of expected future changes.

Specific objectives of the conference include:

The conference will result in a book entitled The Hadley Circulation: Present, Past and Future.

Convenors:
Raymond S. Bradley (rbradley@geo.umass.edu), Climate System Research Center, University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
Henry F. Diaz (hfd@cdc.noaa.gov), NOAA/OAR/CDC, Boulder, Colorado.

Host:
Jay McCreary (jay@musashimaru.soest.hawaii.edu), Director, International Pacific Research Center.
