This award is for a series of workshop activities that would result in the development of a white paper on the potential applications of combining atmospheric and urban digital twins in urban environments. Digital twins are virtual representations of physical objects, processes, and systems and have gained widespread use in the engineering community, and are currently being adopted in the atmospheric sciences community. The impact of the workshop series would be to engage the academic research community in the use of digital twins for enhancing understanding of interactions between natural, physical, cyber, and social systems within cities. The leadership team will conduct a series of focused group meetings, invited talks, virtual meetings, and a session at a major conference over the course of a year that will result in the development of a white paper on the potential applications of combining atmospheric and urban digital twins in urban environments. Atmospheric digital twins (ADTs) are digital clones of the Earth’s atmosphere while Urban digital twins (UDTs) are digital replicas of urban spaces. The integration of ADTs and UDTs into an atmospheric and urban digital twin (AUDT) would result in real-time virtual representations of physical, environmental, and social systems by providing 3D (three-dimensional) visualization, AR (augmented reality), virtual city models, and prediction capabilities. The objectives of the workshop are to develop clear definitions and requirements of AUDT, develop exemplary AUDT demonstrators, and support in channeling the different digital twin developments for weather and climate studies.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.

该奖项是为了表彰一系列研讨会活动，这些活动将导致开发一份关于在城市环境中结合大气和城市数字孪生的潜在应用的白色论文。 数字孪生是物理对象、过程和系统的虚拟表示，在工程界得到了广泛的使用，目前正在大气科学界采用。 该系列研讨会的影响将是让学术研究界参与使用数字孪生模型，以增强对城市内自然、物理、网络和社会系统之间相互作用的理解。 领导团队将在一年的时间里举行一系列重点小组会议、特邀演讲、虚拟会议和一次大型会议，最终将制定一份关于大气和城市数字孪生体在城市环境中的潜在应用的白色文件。 大气数字孪生（ADT）是地球大气的数字克隆，而城市数字孪生（UDT）是城市空间的数字复制品。 将ADT和UDT集成到大气和城市数字孪生（AUDT）中，将通过提供3D（三维）可视化，AR（增强现实），虚拟城市模型和预测功能，实现物理，环境和社会系统的实时虚拟表示。 该研讨会的目标是制定明确的AUDT定义和要求，开发示范AUDT演示，并支持引导天气和气候研究的不同数字孪生发展。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。
