This proposal supports a senior scientist position to work with the Barrow Arctic Science Consortium (BASC). BASC is funded by NSF through a cooperative agreement with the Arctic Sciences Division. Their purpose is to provide logistics and research support to NSF projects in the Barrow area. The primary objectives of the Senior Scientist are 1) to interface between the diverse spectrum of research projects funded by NSF in Barrow and the logistics provider BASC, 2) to ensure projects receive the appropriate support, 3) to assist in developing research collaborations and resource sharing, 4) to identify common needs and provide input from the research community to BASC, and 5) to act as a science resource for the community to communicate about research. This is a pilot approach to providing a senior scientist that will benefit the Barrow research community in lieu of adding a staff position to BASC. Through San Diego State University, co-PI Dr. Hastings will work as a Senior Scientist in Barrow for one year. Lead PI Dr. Walt Oechel will oversee the performance of the grant activities performed by Dr. Hastings. Dr. Hastings has worked in the Barrow area for more than two decades on a variety of research projects. During that time, he has built a solid working relationship with BASC and within the community of Barrow. This proposal provides a willing and qualified senior scientist to fill the role requested by BASC in a manner that retains Dr. Hastings' affiliation with his university. Dr. Hastings will work directly with BASC staff including the Executive Director Glenn Sheehan, Facilities Manager Lewis Brower, and Project Planner Alice Drake and with NSF program managers facilitating research support in Barrow. His work with high school and college students in the region will help develop a new generation of scientists from Barrow and improve the productivity of NSF-supported projects in Barrow.

该提案支持一名高级科学家与巴罗北极科学联盟（BASC）合作。BASC由NSF通过与北极科学部的合作协议资助。他们的目的是为巴罗地区的NSF项目提供后勤和研究支持。高级科学家的主要目标是：1）在巴罗的NSF资助的各种研究项目与物流供应商BASC之间建立联系，2）确保项目得到适当的支持，3）协助发展研究合作和资源共享，4）确定共同需求并向BASC提供研究界的投入，以及5）作为社区交流研究的科学资源。这是一个试点方法，提供一个高级科学家，将有利于巴罗研究界，而不是增加一个工作人员的职位，以BASC。通过圣地亚哥州立大学，共同主要研究者黑斯廷斯博士将作为高级科学家在巴罗工作一年。首席PI博士沃尔特Oechel将监督由博士黑斯廷斯执行的赠款活动的性能。黑斯廷斯博士在巴罗地区工作了二十多年，从事各种研究项目。在此期间，他与BASC和巴罗社区建立了牢固的工作关系。该提案提供了一个愿意和合格的高级科学家，以填补BASC要求的作用，保留黑斯廷斯博士与他的大学的联系。黑斯廷斯博士将直接与BASC工作人员，包括执行董事格伦希恩，设施经理刘易斯布劳尔，项目规划师爱丽丝德雷克和NSF项目经理促进研究支持巴罗。他与该地区高中和大学生的合作将有助于培养巴罗的新一代科学家，并提高巴罗国家科学基金会支持的项目的生产力。
