0334288 Peirce CLEANER (Collaborative Large-scale Environmental Analysis Network (EAN) forEnvironmental Research) discussions proposed during this workshop will address gaps in fundamental scientific knowledge and engineering approaches associated with different networking approaches and geographically large environmental issues within the water, air, and soil domains as well as issues that exist across these domains: sources, engineering controls, multimedia transport and transformation, and effects. Thus the CLEANER approach with its focus on a network (EAN) is justified by the need to address similar environmental issues of broad geographical scale evolving scientific and engineering complexity where current fundamental knowledge and models are lacking and cyberinfrastructural supports are not available. Thus the objectives of this workshop are to: (1) increase the understanding of how CLEANER concepts can be implemented using an EAN in environmentally stressed areas; (2) extend environmental scientific and engineering knowledge within the Neuse Basin case study; and, (3) contribute to the research, teaching, and mentoring activities of individual participants.This workshop will build on the accomplishments of three previous CLEANER workshops. As a group the proposed co-chairs have contributed to these previous workshops in leadership roles, conducted research in the study of water, air, and soil pollution interrelationships and control, and developed and applied new networks and cyberinfrastructures to emerging problem areas: (1) Co-Chair: Prof. Jeff Peirce of Duke University co-hosted NSF CLEANER Workshop III in February 2003 and was a leader of the groundwater breakout session at Workshop 2 in October 2002; (2) Co-Chair: Prof. Ken Reckhow of Duke University and Director of the Water Resources Research Institute at NC State University co-chaired Workshop III; and, (3) Co-Chair: Dr. Tom Prudhomme of the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois participated in Workshops II and III and is an expert in networks and cyberinfrastructures and their applications to emerging problem areas.The workshop will be organized into three phases of activities: (1) prior to the workshop participants will be provided working papers that discuss different CLEANER approaches as well as water, air and soil quality data from the Neuse River Basin compiled by the Co-Chairs; (2) during the workshop large and small group discussions will be structured around the proposed agenda items and draft reports will be written; and, (3) after the workshop the information will be disseminated to all participants and to NSF. Participants with an understanding of the problems in the Neuse River Basin, networks and cyberinfrastructures, as well as other environmentally stressed regions across the nation have or will be recruited from academe, state and federal research agencies, as well as from NSF with an emphasis on including groups historically underrepresented in science and engineering.

0334288皮尔斯CLEANER(环境研究合作大型环境分析网络)研讨会期间提出的讨论将解决与不同的联网方法相关的基础科学知识和工程方法方面的差距，水、空气和土壤领域内的地理上的重大环境问题，以及这些领域存在的问题：来源、工程控制、多媒体传输和转换以及影响。因此，将重点放在网络(EAN)上的更清洁的方法是合理的，因为需要解决地理范围广泛、科学和工程日益复杂的类似环境问题，在这些问题上，目前缺乏基本知识和模型，也没有网络基础设施支持。因此，本次研讨会的目标是：(1)增加对如何在环境压力大的地区使用环境监测网络实施清洁概念的理解；(2)在Neuse盆地案例研究中扩展环境科学和工程知识；以及(3)为个别参与者的研究、教学和指导活动做出贡献。作为一个小组，拟议的联合主席在以前的研讨会中发挥了领导作用，开展了水、空气和土壤污染相互关系和控制的研究，并在新出现的问题领域开发和应用了新的网络和网络基础设施：(1)联合主席：杜克大学的Jeff Peirce教授于2003年2月与人共同主办了NSF Cleaner研讨会III，并在2002年10月的研讨会2上领导了地下水突破会议；(2)联合主席：杜克大学的Ken Reckow教授和北卡罗来纳州立大学水资源研究所所长共同主持了研讨会III；以及，(3)共同主席：伊利诺伊大学国家超级计算应用中心的Tom Prudhomme博士参加了研讨会II和III，他是网络和网络基础设施及其在新兴问题领域的应用方面的专家。研讨会将分为三个阶段：(1)在研讨会之前，将向与会者提供工作文件，讨论不同的清洁方法，以及由共同主席汇编的来自纽兹河流域的水、空气和土壤质量数据；(2)在研讨会期间，将围绕拟议的议程项目组织大小小组讨论，并编写报告草稿；以及，(3)研讨会结束后，信息将分发给所有参与者和国家科学基金会。了解纽兹河流域、网络和网络基础设施以及全国其他环境压力地区问题的参与者已经或将从学术界、州和联邦研究机构以及国家科学基金会招募，重点是纳入在科学和工程领域历来代表性不足的群体。
