Preface

 

The "Symposium on Global Change Research - New Findings and Future Direction-" was held at the Toshi Center Hotel on January 15 (Mon.) and 16 (Tue.), 2001, under the auspices of the Ministry of Education and Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology.

 

In this symposium, lectures on the current status of the researches abroad were given by the prominent foreign researchers, together with presenting the results directed towards future research programs in the FRSGC. Taking the interest of general public into consideration, the following four topics were selected as the Symposium's main themes;

 

1) To what extent can we predict global warming?

2) Various processes in global change

3) Current status and future direction of models for global change research

4) How well do we understand climate change in the Asia-Pacific region?

 

On these themes, the research results were presented by Frontier researchers and lectures were made by guest speakers. In addition, a panel discussion was held on the FRSGC's future direction of research toward the prediction of global change, and many valuable opinions on the future researches were given from the foreign and domestic researchers.

 

In FRSGC, we intend to transmit the research results, holding successively the meetings and symposia for presenting results of researches, as well as to make use of the knowledge/views obtained at this symposium in the future researches.
