The NSF Convergence Accelerator supports use-inspired, team-based, multidisciplinary efforts that address challenges of national importance and will produce deliverables of value to society in the near future. The objective of this workshop on Bringing Land, Ocean, Atmosphere and Ionosphere Data to the Community for Hazards Alerts is to help identify topic areas for new tracks in the NSF Convergence Accelerator.This workshop will bring together Earth System scientists engaged in research on land, ocean, atmosphere, cryosphere and ionosphere phenomena to discuss land-based natural hazards and the impact of such hazards on corresponding parts of the Earth system, viz., ocean, atmosphere, cryosphere, and ionosphere, as well as on human populations in the vicinity of those hazards. Much of the research on natural hazards has tended to focus on one Earth system – for example, tropical storms are studied primarily by ocean scientists, and not as much by, say, earth or atmospheric scientists. However, increasing availability of ground-based, borehole and satellite-based observations at higher spatial and temporal resolution over the globe, and optical and microwave satellites capable of providing meteorological and atmospheric parameters at different pressure levels, are enabling more detailed analyses that show stronger coupling among various Earth systems due to natural hazards. This Convergence Accelerator workshop will provide a platform for ideation and brainstorming on using all available data sources to develop an “alert system” for natural hazards, and to communicate such information to people via various social and digital media in order to reduce loss of life and property and protect human health. The workshop will bring together experts in ground, surface, meteorological and atmospheric data, together with social science researchers, city planners and other local government stakeholders, representatives from non-governmental organizations and those assisting in disaster management to discuss the needs as well as effective approaches for reaching the affected communities during a natural hazard. The workshop will help advance understanding of coupled land-ocean-cryosphere-meteorological-ionosphere systems in the context of natural hazards of all types, and their impact on local/regional infrastructure, resources and people. The key objective of the workshop is to advance the use of all available data from different platforms and leverage the myriad social and digital media platforms to alert the community and get them prepared for impending hazards.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.

NSF融合加速器支持以使用为灵感，以团队为基础，多学科的努力，解决国家重要性的挑战，并将在不久的将来产生对社会有价值的可交付成果。这次关于将陆地、海洋、大气和电离层数据带到危害警报社区的研讨会的目标是帮助确定NSF融合加速器新轨道的主题领域。本次研讨会将汇集从事陆地、海洋、大气、冰冻圈和电离层现象研究的地球系统科学家，讨论陆基自然灾害及其对地球系统相应部分，即海洋、大气、冰冻圈和电离层的影响，以及对这些灾害附近人口的影响。许多关于自然灾害的研究往往集中在一个地球系统上——例如，热带风暴主要是由海洋科学家研究的，而不是由地球或大气科学家研究的。然而，越来越多的基于地面、钻孔和卫星的全球更高时空分辨率观测，以及能够提供不同压力水平下气象和大气参数的光学和微波卫星，正在使更详细的分析成为可能，这些分析表明，由于自然灾害，各种地球系统之间的耦合更强。这一“融合加速器”讲习班将提供一个构思和集思集益的平台，讨论如何利用所有现有的数据来源开发一个自然灾害“警报系统”，并通过各种社会和数字媒体向人们传播这类信息，以减少生命和财产损失，保护人类健康。讲习班将汇集地面、地面、气象和大气数据方面的专家，以及社会科学研究人员、城市规划者和其他地方政府利益攸关方、非政府组织的代表和协助灾害管理的人员，讨论在自然灾害期间接触受影响社区的需求和有效方法。讲习班将有助于增进对各种自然灾害背景下陆地-海洋-冰冻圈-气象-电离层耦合系统及其对地方/区域基础设施、资源和人民的影响的了解。研讨会的主要目标是促进利用来自不同平台的所有可用数据，并利用无数的社交和数字媒体平台来提醒社区，让他们为即将到来的危险做好准备。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
