The International Society for Atmospheric Research using Remotely piloted Aircraft (ISARRA) is going to hold its 2023 conference in Bergen, Norway from 1- 4 August 2023. This meeting provides a unique opportunity for the presentation, discussion, and advancement of scientific outcomes stemming from the use of uncrewed aircraft systems, or drones, in support of understanding the Earth’s atmosphere. Such understanding is very important for advancing abilities to predict and understand weather and climate, and the associated potential societal implications. Additionally, ISARRA serves as a community forum for advancing sensor and aircraft technologies, measurement strategies, integration of drones into the airspace, and general knowledge on the use of drones to understand the atmosphere. The meeting will feature several days of science talks, poster sessions, industry events and, perhaps most importantly, ample time for discussion of current frontiers in this rapidly evolving field. In addition, there will be opportunities for flight demonstrations that allow researchers of all career stages to share and observe different aircraft and sensor systems in action. This project will support the participation of early career researchers, including students and postdocs from a variety of different backgrounds, in the ISARRA 2023 meeting.Uncrewed aircraft systems offer revolutionary perspectives on a variety of different elements of the Earth system, including the atmosphere and surface. To advance the scientific community’s ability to effectively harness the information that can be produced by these systems, the ISARRA was established over a decade ago. Through annual meetings, this society has offered a significant boost to drone-based research and has supported the career development of a significant number of scientists and engineers. Work discussed at these meetings and through the society includes scientific progress on understanding key atmospheric phenomena, including aerosol-cloud interactions, severe weather, atmospheric boundary layer processes and development, high-latitude boundary layers, aerosol and trace gas properties, turbulence, fire weather, the effects of sources of renewable energy (e.g., wind turbines), and more. Additionally, there have been significant discussions on sensors and aircraft systems, including the development of autopilot systems, new miniaturized sensors for aerosol, gas, and cloud measurements, aircraft design, wind sensing and more. Importantly, all these discussions have involved academic researchers, national laboratory researchers and industry participants. Engaging early-career and under-represented scientists in the ISARRA conference and associated activities is a critical step towards continuing and expanding the use of uncrewed aircraft systems in the atmospheric sciences, and towards our collective ability to support the advancement of weather and climate prediction and understanding.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.

国际大气研究学会（ISARRA）将于2023年8月1日至4日在挪威卑尔根举行2023年会议。 本次会议提供了一个独特的机会，介绍，讨论和推进使用无人驾驶飞机系统或无人机所产生的科学成果，以支持了解地球大气层。 这种理解对于提高预测和理解天气和气候的能力以及相关的潜在社会影响非常重要。 此外，ISARRA还作为一个社区论坛，用于推进传感器和飞机技术，测量策略，无人机与空域的集成，以及使用无人机了解大气的一般知识。 会议将包括为期几天的科学讲座，海报会议，行业活动，也许最重要的是，有足够的时间讨论这个快速发展的领域的当前前沿。 此外，还将有机会进行飞行演示，使所有职业阶段的研究人员能够分享和观察不同的飞机和传感器系统。 该项目将支持早期职业研究人员，包括来自各种不同背景的学生和博士后，参加ISARRA 2023会议。无人驾驶飞机系统为地球系统的各种不同元素提供了革命性的观点，包括大气和地表。 为了提高科学界有效利用这些系统产生的信息的能力，ISARRA于十多年前成立。通过年度会议，该协会为基于无人机的研究提供了重大推动，并支持了大量科学家和工程师的职业发展。 在这些会议上和通过学会讨论的工作包括在理解关键大气现象方面的科学进展，包括气溶胶-云的相互作用、恶劣天气、大气边界层过程和发展、高纬度边界层、气溶胶和痕量气体特性、湍流、火灾天气、可再生能源的影响（例如，风力涡轮机）等等。 此外，还就传感器和飞机系统进行了重要的讨论，包括自动驾驶系统的开发，用于气溶胶，气体和云测量的新型小型传感器，飞机设计，风传感等。 重要的是，所有这些讨论都涉及学术研究人员、国家实验室研究人员和行业参与者。 让早期职业和代表性不足的科学家参加ISARRA会议和相关活动是继续和扩大在大气科学中使用无人驾驶飞机系统的关键一步，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识产权进行评估，被认为值得支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
