Tropical cyclones are one of the most severe disturbance affecting social and ecological systems. These storms have huge impacts on both coastal ecosystems and the people that use and enjoy those natural resources. However, the impacts of each storm are unique in both the amount of damage and recovery time. Furthermore, the frequency, intensity, and locations where tropical cyclones occur are expected to change. Tropical cyclones may become more common in some regions or more intense in others. This award will increase the understanding of what storm characteristics and the aspects of the affected coastal ecosystems result in the differential impacts among storms and rates of recovery. In the Research Coordination Network for Hurricane Ecosystem Response Synthesis (RCN-HERS) scientists from diverse disciplines and areas of expertise will contribute their collective knowledge and the wealth of existing data on storm impacts on coastal ecosystems to answer these questions. The data assembled through RCN-HERS will be publicly available for other research teams to use for future work and the project will build a collaborative network of researchers across disciplines of ecology, sociology, economics, and natural resource management. The understanding gained from this project will help researchers predict the impacts of future storms and provide recommendations for managing coastal ecosystems for greater resilience. The RCN-HERS website will serve as a publicly accessible data warehouse and venue for sharing information about research activities, findings, and products. Findings from the project will also be disseminated to the public through local outreach presentations. The Research Coordination Network for Hurricane Ecosystem Response Synthesis will have the overarching goal of linking terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecologists with economists, sociologists, statisticians, modelers, and resource managers to develop a synthetic understanding of the factors governing the resistance and resilience of coastal ecosystems to tropical cyclones, as well as a coordinated approach to comparing among events and their impacts. Participants will meet through a series of workshops and webinars to bring together existing data on ecosystem responses to hurricanes. Researchers will also work together to develop and implement a series of thematic approaches to analyzing and comprehensively synthesizing this existing data and information to build recommendations for future networked research to continue to advance ecological understanding of how hurricanes will impact coastal ecosystems in the future. Project activities will be centered around three workshops to address topics focused on understanding 1) interactions among antecedent conditions and storm characteristics on ecosystem responses, 2) roles of eco-evolutionary history, life history, and biodiversity on ecosystem responses, and 3) feedbacks among natural and social-economic systems that confer resistance and resilience to tropical cyclones. Workshops will include lead-up webinars and digital planning meetings followed by in-person development of conceptual models, data analyses, and syntheses.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.

热带气旋是影响社会和生态系统的最严重的扰动之一。 这些风暴对沿海生态系统以及使用和享受这些自然资源的人们都产生了巨大的影响。 然而，每一场风暴的影响在破坏程度和恢复时间上都是独一无二的。 此外，热带气旋发生的频率、强度和位置预计也会发生变化。 热带气旋在某些地区可能变得更加常见，在其他地区可能变得更加强烈。 该奖项将增加对风暴特征和受影响沿海生态系统方面的理解，这些特征和方面导致风暴之间的差异影响和恢复速度。 在飓风生态系统响应综合研究协调网络（RCN-HERS）中，来自不同学科和专业领域的科学家将贡献他们的集体知识和关于风暴对沿海生态系统影响的丰富现有数据，以回答这些问题。 通过RCN-HERS收集的数据将公开提供给其他研究团队用于未来的工作，该项目将建立一个跨生态学，社会学，经济学和自然资源管理学科的研究人员合作网络。从该项目中获得的理解将有助于研究人员预测未来风暴的影响，并为管理沿海生态系统以提高复原力提供建议。 RCN-HERS网站将作为一个可公开访问的数据仓库和分享研究活动、研究结果和产品信息的场所。该项目的调查结果还将通过当地外联介绍向公众传播。飓风生态系统反应综合研究协调网络的总体目标是将陆地、淡水和海洋生态学家与经济学家、社会学家、统计学家、建模人员和资源管理人员联系起来，以综合了解沿海生态系统对热带气旋的抵抗力和恢复力的控制因素，以及协调一致的方法来比较事件及其影响。 与会者将通过一系列研讨会和网络研讨会聚集在一起，汇集有关生态系统对飓风反应的现有数据。研究人员还将共同努力，开发和实施一系列专题方法，以分析和综合现有的数据和信息，为未来的网络研究提出建议，以继续推进对飓风未来如何影响沿海生态系统的生态理解。 项目活动将围绕三个研讨会展开，重点讨论以下主题：1）生态系统响应的前期条件和风暴特征之间的相互作用，2）生态进化史，生命史和生物多样性对生态系统响应的作用，以及3）赋予热带气旋抵抗力和恢复力的自然和社会经济系统之间的反馈。 研讨会将包括前期网络研讨会和数字规划会议，然后亲自开发概念模型、数据分析和综合。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
