| Research Abstract |
The general management group (X00) of the W-PASS project coordinated to clarify the scientific direction of the four research divisions. The X00 group planned and proposed the intensive island observation campaigns and research cruises. Annual plenary meeting for all project members, meetings for principle investigators and advisory committee members were periodically held and discussed how to manage the project activities. The four working groups (WGs) were established to collaborate among the activities of four divisions (i.e., WG for intensive atmospheric observation campaign at Hedo Cape, WG for evaluation of typhoon impacts, WG for long term variability of marine ecosystems, and WG for eddy covariance technique). It functioned quite well to make vivid discussions and to find new approaches for our goals. Over 20 sessions and workshops were organized for presenting our scientific accomplishments during the national and international symposium and society meetings. Young scientists and students to present their study in abroad were encouraged and supported to cover their travel expenses. To this end, 12 grad students earned their PhD degrees under this project. Newsletters were annually published and the W-PASS webpage was popular to the community.
