Natural or human-made activities that occur immediately above, on, or within the Earth impact humans and the physical environment over different time and spatial scales. Earth sciences offer information and approaches to understand, manage, and respond to those impacts. The long-term mission of the Board on Earth Sciences and Resources (BESR) to coordinate the Earth science issues of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). The Board identifies opportunities to advance basic research and understanding of Earth processes for policy decisions, to report on applications of Earth sciences to important societal issues, and to address the overall health of research and education programs related to Earth sciences. By developing interdisciplinary activities aimed toward understanding how fundamental processes within the terrestrial system interact, the Board enables sharing and exchange of information among government agencies and entities; private, professional, non-governmental, and academic organizations; and the general public to continue raising the profile of science and increase public scientific literacy. Specific impacts following from the consensus study reports and other activities may include language that is input to congressional legislation, changes that are made to agency programs, organization, or priorities; information that is shared by professional or trade organizations through social media platforms, and news coverage of scientific issues.The Board on Earth Sciences and Resources (BESR) is the focal point for Earth science activities at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). The Board develops and oversees consensus studies and other activities that provide independent, objective scientific and technical information to the Earth science community, policy and decision makers in government, non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and the public. The Board manages a range of projects to advise the nation, advance dialogue, and connect thought and research leaders on a range of challenges with fundamental Earth science components. Through a variety of engagement platforms, products, and communication tools, the Board provides a unique and trusted interface among the Earth science research community, many stakeholders, and those in policy- and decision-making roles. This award enables the Board to conduct activities that develop and share Earth science information to inform and advise policy- and decision-making at multiple levels, across the nation.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在地球之上、之上或之内发生的自然或人为活动在不同的时间和空间尺度上影响人类和自然环境。地球科学为理解、管理和应对这些影响提供了信息和方法。地球科学与资源委员会（BESR）的长期使命是协调美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院（NASEM）的地球科学问题。该委员会确定的机会，以推进基础研究和地球的决策过程的理解，报告地球科学的应用，以重要的社会问题，并解决与地球科学有关的研究和教育计划的整体健康。通过开展旨在了解地球系统内基本过程如何相互作用的跨学科活动，委员会使政府机构和实体之间的信息共享和交流;私人，专业，非政府组织和学术组织;以及公众继续提高科学的形象和提高公众的科学素养。共识研究报告和其他活动产生的具体影响可能包括国会立法的语言输入，对机构计划、组织或优先事项的变更;专业或贸易组织通过社交媒体平台分享的信息，地球科学与资源委员会（BESR）是美国国家科学、工程和医学院（NASEM）地球科学活动的协调中心。该委员会制定和监督共识研究和其他活动，为地球科学界、政府、非政府组织、私营部门和公众的政策制定者和决策者提供独立、客观的科学和技术信息。该委员会管理着一系列项目，为国家提供建议，推进对话，并将思想和研究领导者与基础地球科学组成部分联系起来。通过各种参与平台，产品和通信工具，理事会在地球科学研究界，许多利益相关者以及政策和决策角色之间提供了一个独特和值得信赖的界面。该奖项使委员会能够开展开发和共享地球科学信息的活动，为全国多个级别的政策和决策提供信息和建议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
