The unique Antarctic environment offers insight into processes and records not seen anywhere else on Earth, and is critical to understanding our planet’s history and future. The remoteness and logistics of Antarctic science brings together researchers from diverse disciplines who otherwise wouldn’t be presented with opportunities for collaboration, and often rarely attend the same academic conferences. The Interdisciplinary Antarctic Earth Science (IAES) conference is a biennial gathering that supports the collaboration of U.S. bio-, cryo-, geo-, and atmospheric science researchers working in the Antarctic. This proposal will support the next two IAES conferences to be held in 2022 and 2024, as well as a paired deep-field camp planning workshop. The IAES conference is important to the mission of the NSF in supporting interdisciplinary collaboration in the Antarctic Earth sciences, but also fulfills recommendations by the National Academy for improving cross-disciplinary awareness, data sharing, and early career researcher mentoring and development. The size and scope of the IAES conference allow it to serve as a hub for novel, interdisciplinary collaboration, as well as help develop the next generation of Antarctic Earth scientists.The goals of the IAES conference are to develop and deepen scientific collaborations across the Antarctic Earth science community, and create a framework for future deep-field, as well as non-field-based research. Across a 2.5 day hybrid conference, the IAES themes will include 1) connecting surficial processes, geology, and the deep earth; 2) landscape, ice sheet, ocean and atmospheric interactions; 3) exploring the hidden continent; and 4) evolution and ecology of ancient and modern organisms, ecosystems, and environments. The conference will share science through presentations of current research and keynote talks, broaden participation through welcoming new researchers from under-represented communities and disciplines, and deepen collaboration through interdisciplinary networking highlighting potential research connections, novel mentorship activities, and promoting data re-use, and application of remote sensing and modeling. Discussions resulting from the IAES conference will be used to develop white papers on future Antarctic collaborative research and deep-field camps based on community-driven research priorities. Community surveys and feedback will be solicited throughout the project to guide the future development of the IAES conference.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.

独特的南极环境提供了对地球其他地方未曾见过的过程和记录的洞察，对于理解我们星球的历史和未来至关重要。南极科学的偏远和后勤将来自不同学科的研究人员聚集在一起，否则他们不会获得合作机会，而且经常很少参加相同的学术会议。南极地球科学跨学科会议(IAES)是一个两年一度的会议，旨在支持在南极工作的美国生物、低温、地球和大气科学研究人员的合作。这项提议将支持将于2022年和2024年举行的下两次IAES会议，以及一次配对的深部营地规划讲习班。IAES会议对于NSF在支持南极地球科学中的跨学科合作方面的使命非常重要，但也满足了国家科学院关于提高跨学科意识、数据共享和早期职业研究人员指导和发展的建议。IAES会议的规模和范围使其成为新颖的跨学科合作的中心，并有助于培养下一代南极地球科学家。IAES会议的目标是发展和深化南极地球科学界的科学合作，并为未来的深场和非野外研究创建一个框架。在为期两天半的混合会议上，IAES的主题将包括1)连接地表过程、地质和地球深处；2)景观、冰盖、海洋和大气相互作用；3)探索隐藏的大陆；以及4)古代和现代生物、生态系统和环境的进化和生态。会议将通过介绍当前的研究和主旨演讲来分享科学，通过欢迎来自代表性不足的社区和学科的新研究人员来扩大参与，并通过跨学科联网深化合作，突出潜在的研究联系、新的指导活动，并促进数据的再利用以及遥感和建模的应用。IAES会议的讨论结果将用于编写关于未来南极合作研究和基于社区驱动的研究优先事项的深田营地的白皮书。在整个项目中将征求社区调查和反馈意见，以指导IAES会议的未来发展。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
