Antarctic Meteorological Cyberinfrastructure Sustainability

该项目为威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的南极气象研究中心(AMRC)提供了额外的支持。AMRC目前支持极地项目部(NSF USAP；美国南极项目)内气象数据服务的分发，并为美国用户和感兴趣的国际气象和气候学科学家提供访问。该项目还将建立一个由知识渊博的用户组成的工作队，以反映快速变化的极地网络基础设施需求，该工作队将就南极气象和气候数据共享的未来可持续性以及网络基础设施需求提供指导。这一协调一致的努力代表了USAP对美国国家科学基金会地球科学委员会更广泛的地球立方体计划的气象贡献。教育外展工作也延伸到课堂上。这一推广工作旨在展示南极气象数据集的使用，以激发人们对高纬度天气的兴趣，并改善学生在STEM学科领域的学习。除正规教育外，该项目还将继续扩大对普通公众的宣传。

The project provides addtional support for the Antarctic Meteorological Research Center (AMRC) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.The AMRC currently supports distribution of meteorological data services within the Division of Polar Programs (NSF USAP; United States Antarctic Program),and provides access by US users and interested international meterological and climatological scientists. Reflecting rapidly changing polar cyberinfrastructure needs, the project also will establish a task force, of knowlegeable users, that will provide guidance concerning the future sustainability of Antarctic meteorological and climate data sharing and cyber-infrastructure needs. This concerted effort represents the USAP's meteorological contribution to the NSF's Geosciences Directorate broader Earth Cube program. Educational outreach efforts also extends into the classroom. This outreach efforts aim to demonstrate the use of Antarctic meteorological datasets to spur interest in high latitude weather, and to improve student learning in STEM subject areas. Together with formal education, the project will continue to be invovled with a broader outreach to the general public.
