This project will establish a Research Coordination Network (RCN) "EarthRates: Linking Scales Across the Sedimentary Crust" that will provide the framework and opportunity to engage communities and forge new collaborations in order to foster transdisciplinary research on Earth's sedimentary crust. This RCN will bring together investigators from NSF-sponsored entities such as the Paleobiology Database, Neotoma, Macrostrat, EarthTime, EarthChem, Earth-Life Transitions, the Continental Scientific Drilling Coordination Office, and Flyover Country to strategize, leverage and build community collaborative efforts to address major grand challenges in Earth system science. These include: 1) how have the oceans, the Earth's sedimentary crust, carbon sinks and soils, and life itself evolved together, and what does this tell us about the future trajectory of the integrated Earth-life system? and 2) what are the ranges of ecosystem response, modes of vulnerability, and resilience to changes in Earth-system states? By bringing investigators and leaders from these groups together and building stronger partnerships, we will move towards the goal of developing a fully integrated four-dimensional digital Earth to fully understand Earth's dynamic system evolution.EarthRates RCN will build on recent activities of the communities and facilitate efforts to bring these groups together to 1) hold workshops, 2) develop working groups, 3) provide training opportunities to build a future workforce, 4) launch data mobilization campaigns, 5) strengthen community ties, 6) discover new partners and opportunities, 7) promote with social media and strong web presence (such as maintaining the development of a 'Broader Impacts Clearinghouse', extending outreach opportunities with Flyover Country mobile app, and increasing efforts to recruit, retain, and advance members of underrepresented groups), and 8) integrate efforts to build research capacity in the sedimentary crust by exposing and visualizing data from EarthRate's community data repositories. This project will create a stronger scientific infrastructure, leveraging funds already spent by NSF to further build the community that is critical to understanding Earth's past and future states.

该项目将建立一个研究协调网络（RCN）“ Earthrates：将跨沉积地壳的尺度联系起来”，这将为框架和机会提供参与社区并建立新的合作，以促进对地球沉积地壳的跨学科研究。该RCN将把来自NSF赞助实体的调查人员聚集在一起，例如古生物学数据库，新瘤，大型，地球，地球时间，地球，地球，地球生命过渡，大陆科学钻探协调办公室以及天桥国家，以制定，利用，利用，利用和建立社区协作的努力来应对地球系统科学领域的重大挑战。 其中包括：1）海洋，地球的沉积地壳，碳汇和土壤以及生命本身如何发展在一起，这告诉我们综合地球寿命系统的未来轨迹是什么？ 2）生态系统响应，脆弱性模式以及对地球系统状态变化的韧性的范围是多少？通过将这些群体的调查人员和领导人聚集在一起并建立更牢固的伙伴关系，我们将朝着建立完全集成的四维数字地球以充分了解地球的动态系统的进化。反应RCN将基于社区的最新活动，并促进努力促进这些群体将这些群体融合在一起，将这些群体融合在一起，以建立一个培训的工作组，3）未来的工作机会，2）4）4）4）4）4）4）4） ties, 6) discover new partners and opportunities, 7) promote with social media and strong web presence (such as maintaining the development of a 'Broader Impacts Clearinghouse', extending outreach opportunities with Flyover Country mobile app, and increasing efforts to recruit, retain, and advance members of underrepresented groups), and 8) integrate efforts to build research capacity in the sedimentary crust by exposing and visualizing data from EarthRate's community data repositories.该项目将创建一个更强大的科学基础设施，利用NSF已经花费的资金来建立对了解地球过去和未来国家至关重要的社区。
