在全球環境急遽變遷及資源耗竭下,環境議題日受重視,「環境教育」自1970年代起即成為先進國家積極推動的專業;近年來聯合國教科文組織更倡議將2005~2014訂為「永續發展教育十年」,呼籲各國積極推動環境教育及「永續發展教育」之研究與發展。國立台灣師範大學環境教育研究所為國內第一個設立的「環境教育研究所」,於民國八十二年開始招收碩士班研究生,並於民國九十五學年度起增設博士班,積極培養環境教育專業人才、推動學校及社會之環境教育與學術研究。近年則積極參與區域與地方永續發展相關研究及推廣教育,推動綠色學校、永續校園、綠色大學、自然教育中心、環境學習中心等,並與國際著名大學或研究中心合作,朝向亞太「永續教育區域專業中心」(Regional Center for Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development)發展。

本所努力方向:
  1. 學術研究國際化,進行環境教育及永續發展創新研究,提昇學術實力;
  2. 深化環境教育相關理論與應用研究,培養專業人才;
  3. 進行環境教育教與方案之研發、應用與評估,提昇環境教育專業品質;
  4. 協助政府與民間進行環境教育系統規劃、政策研究與人力培訓發展,增進整體社會環境倫理與典範轉移;
  5. 協助政府與民間運用不同自然環境與文化資源,開創環境學習場域,提供全民多元環境學習機會,提昇國民環境素養。

    Fine-Resolution Modeling Studies in the Northern South China Sea
    (2004-05-20) Wu, Chau-Ron; Hsin, Yi-Chia; Jiang, Tzu-Ling
    Recently, there have been many new observations from expeditions and moored instruments in the northern South China Sea (NSCS), which produced several exciting new features not known before. These new findings call for a new generation of models to explore the processes responsible for these features, because most of the existing numerical models can not either resolve them or account for the physics behind them. A fine-resolution, hydrodynamic model of the NSCS area capable of resolving the temporal and spatial scales of corresponding oceanic processes and bringing together the unique oceanographic data sources available in this area is established in this study. The fine-resolution NSCS model is nesting to a North Pacific Ocean model. Description of the circulation is further improved by assimilating the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite altimeter data into the NSCS model. Data assimilation model not only reproduces the seasonal patterns in the earlier studies but also resolves mesoscale highs and lows in the region. The model results are reasonably consistent with the limited observations during previous expeditions. The spatial and temporal variations in the NSCS are discussed as well. Furthermore, satellite remote sensing data and time series data obtained from moored instruments (SEATS) will be also used for comparison with model output.

    Intra-Seasonal Variation in the Velocity Field of the Northeastern South China Sea
    (2004-05-20) Wu, Chau-Ron; Tang, T. Y.; Lin, S. F.; Yang, Y. J.; Liang, W. D.
    Two subsurface Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) were deployed at the northeastern South China Sea to study circulation structure in the area as well as the path and process of Kuroshio intrusion. The 48-hour low-pass filtered data reveal significant intra-seasonal variations in the velocity field. The current pattern alternates between clockwise and counterclockwise even within a single month. Local wind forcing dominated by monsoon winds fails to address the phenomena and variations. The present study suggests that wind stress curl forcing is the dominant process controlling the circulation picture in the area. While a stronger wind stress curl appeared and developed off southern tip of Taiwan, it will provide negative vorticity to the intruded current and form an anticyclonic eddy. The stronger current is always going along with the stronger wind stress curl. On the other hand, while the curl in the area looses or decays, the intruded current becomes weakened and forms a cyclonic eddy. The agreement between wind stress curl and the velocity field suggests that changes in the wind stress curl contribute to the intra-seasonal variations in the northeastern South China Sea.
