项目摘要

The "Critical Zone" of the Earth includes the portion of the planet from the atmosphere through groundwater. Important characteristics of the Critical Zone are buried within it: how does the ground beneath our feet vary, how has it developed over time, and, how can we predict changes that may occur across time and space. Addressing these questions will affect how we manage the projected increase in demand for food, energy, and water that will accompany the growth in human population to 9 billion people by 2050. This project is a Research Coordination Network (RCN) that will bring together scientific expertise and students to explore these topics.This research coordination network (RCN) is intended to synthesize data and models to investigate a key research question: How has the structure of the Critical Zone evolved in the past and how will it respond to future perturbations resulting from increasingly intensive human activities? Quantifying the depth of Critical-Zone processes is important because it connects multiple areas of investigation: water storage, weathering, biogeochemical fluxes, and societal needs. Coupling models to data is difficult, since different research domains define the Critical Zone by changes in conditions that are hard to reconcile. Quantifying the gradient in properties that may define the lower boundary of the Critical Zone requires an injection of new ideas, methods, and people from across disciplines. This RCN is built around the following four topics: 1) synthesis efforts that help guide the coming decade of research on Critical-Zone architecture; 2) exploration of a diverse set of complimentary approaches for identifying the lower boundary of the Critical Zone and its influence on processes; 3) training of scientists in multidisciplinary data collection and modeling approaches; and 4) pathways to develop the next generation of Critical-Zone models. This RCN will involve at least 100 scientists, including early-career faculty, postdoctoral associates, and graduate students. Participants will be recruited from underrepresented ethnic, socio-economic, ability, and sexual identity groups. In addition to large and small meetings of the participants, this RCN will offer workshops at annual meetings and through webinars that focus on networking, diversifying research skills, and proposal development that will benefit a wider cross-section of early-career professionals.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.

地球的“临界区”包括从大气到地下水的地球的一部分。临界区域的重要特征被埋在其中：我们脚下的地面如何变化，随着时间的推移如何发展，以及我们如何预测可能在时间和空间跨空间发生的变化。 Addressing these questions will affect how we manage the projected increase in demand for food, energy, and water that will accompany the growth in human population to 9 billion people by 2050. This project is a Research Coordination Network (RCN) that will bring together scientific expertise and students to explore these topics.This research coordination network (RCN) is intended to synthesize data and models to investigate a key research question: How has the structure of the Critical Zone evolved in the past and how will它响应越来越强化的人类活动导致的未来扰动吗？量化关键区域过程的深度很重要，因为它连接了多个调查领域：储水，风化，生物地球化学通量和社会需求。耦合模型与数据很难，因为不同的研究领域通过难以调和的条件的变化来定义关键区域。量化可能定义关键区域下边界的性能中的梯度需要注入新的思想，方法和跨学科的人。该RCN围绕以下四个主题构建：1）合成工作，有助于指导未来十年的关键区域建筑研究； 2）探索各种免费的免费方法，以识别关键区域的下边界及其对过程的影响； 3）在多学科数据收集和建模方法中对科学家的培训； 4）开发下一代关键区域模型的途径。该RCN将涉及至少100位科学家，包括早期职业教师，博士后员工和研究生。参与者将从代表性不足的种族，社会经济，能力和性认同群体中招募。除了参加参与者的大型和小型会议外，该RCN还将在年度会议上和网络研讨会上提供讲习班，并通过网络研讨会进行网络，多样化的研究技能和提案开发，这将使早期职业专业人士的更广泛的横向截面。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估基金会的智力效果和广泛的评估来反映出值得的支持，并具有值得的评估。
