The investigators within FASTNEt have a strong, demonstrable record of sustained publication and presentation of their research in high impact journals, international conferences and membership of scientific working groups and panels (see investigator CVs). Through the lifetime of FASTNEt and beyond, we will maintain this level of engagement with the UK and international physical oceanography communities.FASTNEt will be an opportunity to make unprecedented seasonal observations of the dynamic ocean-shelf domain using the latest autonomous technologies. The expected leap forward in our understanding of this system will benefit all studies of shelf seas that are influenced by the adjacent ocean. Beyond the physics community, there will be particular benefit to researchers in the associated fields of:- nutrient fluxes and cycling in shelf seas, including carbon and CO2- biogeochemical modeling of shelf seas- biological productivity, and research into the development of harmful algal bloomsWithin the UK, there is an active cross-disciplinary approach to marine science that has matured during the Oceans 2025 program. We will ensure the wider academic benefits of FASTNEt are achieved through institutional and community events, for example the biennial UK Challenger Society Conference, which brings together researchers from different marine disciplines. We will also collaborate actively with NERC Advanced Fellows; here we identify particularly Dr M Green (Bangor) and Dr D McKee (Strathclyde) who are investigating respectively, ocean mixing and ocean optics in the context of shelf seas.The modeling component within FASTNEt will find its main academic beneficiary with researchers at the National Centre for Ocean Forecasting (Project Partner) - with the operational forecasting aspect of NCOF giving FASTNEt a wider sphere of societal impact. We have planned regular science meetings with NCOF to ensure greatest benefit to this group. FASTNEt modeling work will also benefit academics in the MITgcm modeling community and contribute to the further development and implementation of NEMO; bringing FASTNEt data and deliverables into a wide international user community. We also see opportunities to use data from FASTNEt to benefit the development of new modeling environments such as unstructured mesh schemes like the Imperial College Ocean Model.Internationally, we will promote FASTNEt by seeking keynote and plenary talks in major conferences. FASTNEt also has close alliances with the Oregon State University coastal and shelf seas research group (through Co-I Boyd and Dale); one of the leading US groups in ocean-shelf oceanography. More broadly, we will extend the academic reach of FASTNEt through our involvement with the Scientific Committee on Ocean Research (SCOR) Working Group #129 dedicated to Ocean-shelf exchanges (where Co-I Sharples is a member). Through association with this Working Group we aim to bring FASTNEt within this active international forum of oceanographic research projects and groups. Two particular international science frameworks that offer excellent opportunities for cross disciplinary working with FASTNEt are 'Land Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone' (LOICZ) and 'Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research' (IMBER).

FASTNEt内的研究人员在高影响力期刊、国际会议以及科学工作组和小组成员中持续发表和展示其研究成果方面有着强有力的、可证明的记录（见研究人员简历）。在FASTNEt的整个生命周期及以后，我们将与英国和国际物理海洋学界保持这种水平的接触。FASTNEt将是一个利用最新自主技术对动态海洋架域进行前所未有的季节性观测的机会。我们对这一系统的理解所预期的飞跃将有利于所有受邻近海洋影响的陆架海的研究。除了物理界，将特别有利于相关领域的研究人员：-营养通量和陆架海的循环，包括碳和CO2-陆架海的生物地球化学建模-生物生产力，以及有害藻华的发展研究在英国，有一个积极的跨学科方法，海洋科学在海洋2025计划期间已经成熟。我们将确保通过机构和社区活动实现FASTNEt更广泛的学术利益，例如两年一度的英国挑战者协会会议，该会议汇集了来自不同海洋学科的研究人员。我们还将与NERC高级研究员积极合作;这里我们特别提到M绿色博士（班戈尔）和D麦基博士（斯特拉斯克莱德）他们正在分别调查，在陆架海的背景下，海洋混合和海洋光学。FASTNEt中的建模组件将与国家海洋预报中心的研究人员一起找到其主要的学术受益者（项目合作伙伴）-NCOF的业务预测方面给予FASTNEt更广泛的社会影响范围。我们计划定期与NCOF举行科学会议，以确保这一群体的最大利益。FASTNEt建模工作也将使MITgcm建模社区的学者受益，并有助于NEMO的进一步开发和实施;将FASTNEt数据和交付成果带入广泛的国际用户社区。我们还看到了利用FASTNEt数据开发新建模环境的机会，例如帝国理工学院海洋模型等非结构化网格方案。在国际上，我们将通过在主要会议上进行主题演讲和全体会议来推广FASTNEt。FASTNEt还与俄勒冈州州立大学沿海和陆架海研究小组（通过Co-I Boyd和Dale）建立了密切的联盟关系;该小组是美国海洋陆架海洋学的主要小组之一。更广泛地说，我们将通过参与海洋研究科学委员会（SCOR）致力于海洋架交换的第129工作组（Co-I Sharples是该工作组的成员）来扩大FASTNEt的学术影响力。通过与该工作组的联系，我们的目标是将FASTNEt纳入海洋学研究项目和团体的这一活跃的国际论坛。两个特别的国际科学框架为FASTNEt的跨学科合作提供了极好的机会，这两个框架是“沿海地区的陆地和海洋相互作用”（LOICZ）和“综合海洋生物地球化学和生态系统研究”（IMBER）。
