PPSR: Blending cultural and environmental resilience with contemporary technology: cutting-edge environmental sensor workshop for loko i`a

在之前OCE奖（1538697）的资助下，Glazer博士最近开发了低成本的海平面和水监测传感器，并成功地将这些传感器部署在瓦胡岛当地的一个鱼塘Paepae o He 'eia。这些传感器是一项重要的创新，将补充或取代以前每单位花费数万美元的监测设备的数据。本次研讨会的目的是向夏威夷公众广泛提供新仪器，以了解沿海水位和潮汐过程的时空变化，这些变化通过令人讨厌的洪水和海平面上升威胁着社区。为期两天的研讨会将培训夏威夷社区成员在夏威夷群岛各地的鱼塘组装、安装和使用新的传感器。PI将订购所有传感器部件，预组装困难/关键组件，3D打印定制外壳底盘组件，并组装带有制造文档的DIY套件，以便在动手传感器组装和培训期间分发给大约40名研讨会参与者。DIY传感器套件将允许夏威夷社区监测和量化近实时的海岸潮汐、洪水和海滩上升风险。讲习班结束后，PI将继续吸引参与者，协调数据馈送，维护数据档案，并使用新组装和部署的传感器套件中的众包数据提供网络可视化工具。讲习班的共同组织伙伴Kua' aina Ulu 'Auamo （Kua）将促进讲习班后的评估和调查。最终，这些传感器产生的数据将使科学家能够以以前不可能的精度和空间尺度访问数据。智力优势：提议的研讨会的结构和鼓励科学家和公众之间富有成效的互动的总体计划已经得到很好的发展。包括基层非营利组织KUA和Kamehameha学校在内的社区合作伙伴正在支持研讨会的各个部分，这表明公众对这一努力非常感兴趣。研讨会将集中讨论一个与当地社区高度相关的重要科学问题，所得数据将有可能通过在前所未有的尺度上增加NOAA潮汐计的空间变动性来改变监测和预测沿海水文、洪水和有害洪水的能力。更广泛的影响：本次研讨会的更广泛的影响尤其强烈。讲习班将支持公众参与科学研究，并将增进公众对关键环境问题的了解。最终的结果将是一个？受指导的公民科学家？这种方法可以获得可靠的沿海观测站数据。

With funding from a previous OCE award (1538697), Dr. Glazer recently developed low-cost sea level and water monitoring sensors and has successfully deployed these sensors in a local fishpond, Paepae o He`eia, on the island of Oahu. These sensors are an important innovation that will supplement or replace data from monitoring devices that previously cost tens of thousands of dollars per unit. The objective of this workshop is to make the new instruments widely available to the public in Hawaii for understanding spatial and temporal variability of coastal water level and tidal processes that threaten communities through nuisance flooding and sea level rise. The two-day workshop will train Hawaiian community members to assemble, install and use the new sensors at fishponds located throughout the Hawaiian Islands. The PI will order all sensor parts, pre-assemble difficult/critical components, 3D print custom housing chassis components, and assemble DIY kits with fabrication documentation to distribute to about forty workshop participants during the hands-on sensor assembly and training sessions. The DIY sensor kits will allow Hawaiian communities to monitor and quantify in near-real-time coastal tides, inundation, and beach run-up risks. After the workshop, the PI will continue to engage participants, coordinate data feeds, maintain data archives, and provide web visualization tools using crowd-sourced data from the newly assembled and deployed sensor kits. Workshop co-organizing partner Kua'Aina Ulu 'Auamo (KUA) will facilitate post-workshop assessments and surveys. Ultimately, the data produced by these sensors will allow scientists to access data with an accuracy and spatial scale that was not previously possible. Intellectual Merit: The structure of the proposed workshops and the general plan for encouraging productive interactions between scientists and members of the public is well developed. Community partners, including the grassroots non-profit organization KUA and the Kamehameha Schools, are supporting various portions of the workshop, demonstrating significant interest by the public in this effort. The workshop will focus on an important scientific question that is highly relevant to the local communities, and the resulting data will potentially transform the capability for monitoring and predicting coastal hydrology, inundation, and nuisance flooding by augmenting NOAA tide gauge spatial variability at unprecedented scales . Broader Impacts: The broader impacts of this workshop are especially strong. The workshop will support public participation in scientific research and will increase public understanding of critical environmental issues. The end result will be a ?mentored citizen scientist? approach that leads to reliable crowd-sourced coastal observatory data.
