This activity will continue support for an office that assists the community of scientist that uses an international research site on the summit of the Greenland ice sheet. Over 20 groups from the U.S. and Europe are using the site and others have projects pending. One key to success of this shared facility is to closely coordinate measurements, share facility resources and exchange data of common interest between investigators to make most efficient use of the facility and resources. Since this coordination goes well beyond what individual investigators can efficiently do through one-to-one interactions, NSF has supported a Science Coordination Office (SCO) since 1999 to work with scientists, the logistic contractor and others to plan both near and long term activities that require strong involvement from the science community. This proposal provides for continuation of the SCO, which has three main objectives:Plan and coordinating measurements including sharing of facilities and personnel, data and requests to funding agencies for upgrades and maintenance to facilitate science; working with the logistics contractor and NSF to plan, develop and operate the station to serve a growing international and multidisciplinary community while maintaining scientific integrity of the site during the transition; and carrying out strategic planning, working with international and national agencies who are involved with supporting activities at Summit, facilitating communication between investigators and reporting to funding agencies.

这项活动将继续支持一个办事处，该办事处协助使用格陵兰冰盖顶部的国际研究地点的科学家社区。来自美国和欧洲的20多个团体正在使用该网站，还有一些团体正在等待项目。这一共享设施成功的一个关键是密切协调测量，共享设施资源，并在调查人员之间交换共同感兴趣的数据，以最有效地利用设施和资源。由于这种协调远远超出了单个研究人员可以通过一对一的互动有效地完成的范围，自1999年以来，美国国家科学基金会支持了一个科学协调办公室（SCO），与科学家、后勤承包商和其他人合作，规划需要科学界大力参与的近期和长期活动。该提案规定了上海合作组织的延续，其主要目标有三个：规划和协调措施，包括共享设施和人员、数据以及向资助机构提出升级和维护的要求，以促进科学研究；与后勤承包商和美国国家科学基金会合作，规划、开发和运营该站，以服务于日益增长的国际和多学科社区，同时在过渡期间保持该站的科学完整性；开展战略规划，与参与支持首脑会议活动的国际和国家机构合作，促进调查人员之间的沟通并向供资机构报告。
