This award is designated as a Science Across Virtual Institutes (SAVI) award and is being co-funded by the NSF's Directorate for Geosciences, Directorate of Computer Information Science and Engineering's Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (ACI) Division and Office of International and Integrative Activities. The aim of this award is to deliver an e-infrastructure and data management roadmap and implementation plan for effective end-to-end (basic research to decision making) global environmental change research by facilitating collaboration among engineers, computer, natural, and social scientists from the United States and many countries across the globe through a Knowledge Hub. The funds will be used to support the collaboration between 14 US researchers and approximately 120 researchers from the 13 participating Belmont Forum countries and the coordination of the Knowledge Hub activities through a secretariat. Knowledge Hub activities such as virtual working groups and in-person workshops will focus on two thematic areas: governance and interoperability in architectures. The resulting e-Infrastructure and Data Management Strategy and Implementation Plan will serve as a clear roadmap to address and prioritize interoperability challenges across the globe and integrate national and international research efforts to promote more holistic environmental decision support systems for global environmental change research. A key outcome of these collaborative efforts will be enhanced interoperability among global environmental data that will help develop beneficial societal products.The development of this e-infrastructure and data management Knowledge Hub represents an extraordinary opportunity to bring together international leaders in interoperability, standards development, and various aspects of governance to seek a synoptic world vision. This virtual institute will create opportunities for enhancing the career trajectories of a new generation of researchers in the U.S. and across the globe. The Knowledge Hub will expose US early-career scientists to interdisciplinary, multi-institutional activities focused on environmental data and cyberinfrastructure where they can benefit not only from the US participants but also their counterparts from 13 other countries.

该奖项被指定为跨虚拟机构科学(SAVI)奖，由NSF地球科学局、计算机信息科学和工程局高级网络基础设施(ACI)司和国际与综合活动办公室共同资助。该奖项的目的是通过知识中心促进来自美国和全球许多国家的工程师、计算机、自然和社会科学家之间的合作，从而为有效的端到端(从基础研究到决策)全球环境变化研究提供电子基础设施和数据管理路线图和实施计划。这笔资金将用于支持贝尔蒙论坛13个参与国的14名美国研究人员和大约120名研究人员之间的合作，以及通过秘书处协调知识中心的活动。知识中心的活动，如虚拟工作组和面对面讲习班，将侧重于两个主题领域：架构的治理和互操作性。由此产生的电子基础设施和数据管理战略和执行计划将成为一个明确的路线图，以应对全球范围内的互操作性挑战并确定其优先次序，并整合国家和国际研究努力，以促进更全面的环境决策支持系统，用于全球环境变化研究。这些合作努力的一个关键成果将是加强全球环境数据之间的互操作性，这将有助于开发有益的社会产品。这个电子基础设施和数据管理知识中心的发展是一个非同寻常的机会，可以将互操作性、标准制定和治理的各个方面的国际领导者聚集在一起，寻求概括性的世界愿景。这个虚拟研究所将为加强美国和全球新一代研究人员的职业轨迹创造机会。知识中心将让美国职业生涯早期的科学家接触到专注于环境数据和网络基础设施的跨学科、多机构活动，在这些活动中，他们不仅可以从美国的参与者那里受益，还可以从来自其他13个国家的同行那里受益。
