Natural or human-made activities that occur immediately above, on, or within the Earth impact humans and the physical environment over different time and spatial scales. Earth sciences offer information and approaches to understand, manage, and respond to those impacts. The long-term mission of the Board on Earth Sciences and Resources (BESR) to coordinate the Earth science issues of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). The Board identifies opportunities to advance basic research and understanding of Earth processes for policy decisions, to report on applications of Earth sciences to important societal issues, and to address the overall health of research and education programs related to Earth sciences. By developing interdisciplinary activities aimed toward understanding how fundamental processes within the terrestrial system interact, the Board enables sharing and exchange of information among government agencies and entities; private, professional, non-governmental, and academic organizations; and the general public to continue raising the profile of science and increase public scientific literacy. Specific impacts following from the consensus study reports and other activities may include language that is input to congressional legislation, changes that are made to agency programs, organization, or priorities; information that is shared by professional or trade organizations through social media platforms, and news coverage of scientific issues.The Board on Earth Sciences and Resources (BESR) is the focal point for Earth science activities at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). The Board develops and oversees consensus studies and other activities that provide independent, objective scientific and technical information to the Earth science community, policy and decision makers in government, non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and the public. The Board manages a range of projects to advise the nation, advance dialogue, and connect thought and research leaders on a range of challenges with fundamental Earth science components. Through a variety of engagement platforms, products, and communication tools, the Board provides a unique and trusted interface among the Earth science research community, many stakeholders, and those in policy- and decision-making roles. This award enables the Board to conduct activities that develop and share Earth science information to inform and advise policy- and decision-making at multiple levels, across the nation.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.

自然或人工制造的活动在地球上方，在地球上或内部发生，在不同的时间和空间尺度上影响人类和物理环境。地球科学提供了了解，管理和应对这些影响的信息和方法。地球科学和资源委员会（BESR）的长期任务是协调国家科​​学，工程和医学学院（NASEM）的地球科学问题。董事会确定了进步基础研究和对政策决策的地球过程的理解的机会，报告地球科学对重要社会问题的应用，并解决与地球科学相关的研究和教育计划的整体健康。通过开发旨在了解陆地系统中基本过程如何相互作用的跨学科活动，董事会可以在政府机构和实体之间共享和交流信息；私人，专业，非政府和学术组织；公众将继续提高科学概况并提高公共科学素养。共识研究报告和其他活动所产生的具体影响可能包括对国会立法的意见，对代理计划，组织或优先事项的变化的意见；专业或贸易组织通过社交媒体平台共享的信息，以及科学问题的新闻报道。地球科学和资源委员会（BESR）是美国国家科学，工程学和医学学院（NASEM）地球科学活动的焦点。董事会开发和监督共识研究和其他活动，这些研究为地球科学界，政府，非政府组织，私营部门和公众提供独立，客观的科学和技术信息。董事会管理一系列项目，以建议国家，并与思想和研究领袖联系，以解决基本地球科学组成部分的一系列挑战。通过各种参与平台，产品和通信工具，董事会在地球科学研究界，许多利益相关者以及政策和决策角色的界面之间提供了独特而值得信赖的界面。该奖项使董事会能够开发和共享地球科学信息的活动，以在全国范围内多个层面的政策和决策提供信息和建议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估来审查标准的评估。
