摘要:The summer school “ENSO Dynamics and Predictability” took place in the lush jungle of Puna on the Big Island of Hawai’i. Sixteen graduate students in oceanography, meteorology and geology from 10 countries gathered to learn from lecturers on a broad range of ENSO-related topics: ENSO theory (Fei-Fei Jin, University of Hawai’i, USA), ENSO phenomenology (Michael McPhaden, NOAA, USA), ENSO predictability (Magdalena Balmaseda, European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts, UK; Richard Kleeman, Courant Institute, USA), and ENSO’s sensitivity to past and future climate change (Scott Power, Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research Bureau of Meteorology/CSIRO, Australia; Axel Timmermann, University of Hawai'i, USA).
