The study of hazards and renewable energy are paramount for the development and sustainability of society. Similarly, the emergence of new climatic patterns pose new challenges for future societal planning. Geospatial data are being generated at unprecedented rate exceeding our analysis capabilities and leading towards a data-rich but knowledge-poor environment. The use of advanced computing tools and techniques are playing an increasingly important role in contributing to solutions to problems of societal importance. This project will create specialized computational tools that will enhance the ability of scientists to effectively and efficiently study natural hazards and renewable energy. The use of these tools will support novel methods and the use of powerful computing resources in ways that are not currently possible.Many scientific applications in the geosciences are increasingly reliant on "ensemble-based" methods to make scientific progress. This is true for applications that are both net producers of data, as well as aggregate consumers of data. In response to the growing importance and pervasiveness of ensemble-based applications and analysis, and to address the challenges of scale, simplicity and flexibility, the research team will develop the Ensemble Toolkit for Earth Sciences. The Ensemble Toolkit will provide an important addition to the set of capabilities and tools that will enable the geosciences community to use high-performance computing resources more efficiently, effectively and in an extensible fashion. This project represents the co-design of Ensemble Toolkit for Earth Sciences and is a collective effort of an interdisciplinary team of cyberinfrastructure and domain scientists. It will also support the integration of the Ensemble Toolkit with a range of science applications, as well as its use in solving scientific problems of significant societal impact that are currently unable to utilize the collective capacity of supercomputers, campus clusters and clouds

研究危害和可再生能源对社会的发展和可持续性至关重要。同样，新的气候模式的出现对未来的社会规划提出了新的挑战。 地理空间数据的生成速度前所未有，超出了我们的分析能力，导致数据丰富但知识贫乏的环境。 使用先进的计算工具和技术在帮助解决具有社会重要性的问题方面发挥着越来越重要的作用。该项目将创建专门的计算工具，提高科学家有效和高效研究自然灾害和可再生能源的能力。这些工具的使用将支持新的方法和以目前不可能的方式使用强大的计算资源。地球科学中的许多科学应用越来越依赖于“基于集合”的方法来取得科学进步。 对于既是数据的净生产者又是数据的聚合消费者的应用程序来说，这是正确的。 为了应对集成应用和分析日益重要和普遍的情况，并应对规模、简单性和灵活性方面的挑战，研究小组将开发地球科学集成工具包。 Encourage Toolkit将为一套能力和工具提供重要补充，使地球科学界能够更有效率、更有效地和以可扩展的方式使用高性能计算资源。该项目代表了地球科学环境工具包的共同设计，是网络基础设施和领域科学家跨学科团队的集体努力。它还将支持将环境工具包与一系列科学应用相结合，并支持将其用于解决目前无法利用超级计算机、校园集群和云的集体能力的具有重大社会影响的科学问题
