Marine social-ecological systems (SES) are shaped by many related social and environmental processes, such as ocean warming and acidification, human migration, and seafood trade. Together, these environmental and social processes have major influences on coastal marine ecosystems and the human communities that depend on them. They affect abundance and diversity of marine species, shape social and economic life within a community, and influence systems of governance. Understanding these effects is particularly relevant for small-scale fisheries as they employ over 90% of fishers globally and provide food and labor opportunities for hundreds of millions of people. This study will identify and evaluate responses to social and environmental change that shape the governance and sustainability of natural resource systems. The focal SES of this study encompasses small-scale fisheries. After 25 collaborative projects conducted over the last 20 years, the research team is well-positioned to create a model for SES synthesis and analysis that is grounded in knowledge from diverse disciplines and perspectives and is relevant to small-scale fisheries in coastal marine systems and communities around the globe. The project will build capacity in integrated SES science by supporting an early career investigator and education and training activities for graduate and undergraduate students and postdoctoral scholars. In addition, it will develop interdisciplinary collaboration in marine conservation and management, lead to information-sharing through further development of an open source digital platform, and engage decision makers, fishers, and other community members through workshop activities.This project will produce novel and generalizable insights concerning the operation and transformation of integrated socio-environmental systems (SES) and improve scientific understanding of adaptive responses to environmental and social change in a culturally and economically important transboundary marine ecosystem. The focus is on the SESs associated with small-scale fisheries and the work is guided by the overall research question: What are the observed responses, either adaptive or maladaptive, to social and environmental drivers of change that shape the governance and sustainability of natural resources and the human communities that depend on them? The investigators will synthesize diverse datasets covering oceanographic, ecological, fishery, socioeconomic, and governance system components that the team has assembled through previous research projects and sustained engagement with regional stakeholders and ecosystems. They will use a series of spatially explicit and hierarchically structured models, informed by expert knowledge of individuals with diverse disciplinary and institutional perspectives, to test hypotheses related to 1) the frequency and spatial extent of environmental and social drivers of change; 2) influences of these drivers on governance arrangements; and 3) the ability of cooperative governance arrangements to withstand shocks and exhibit adaptive strategies in the face of change. The goal is to understand causal pathways and processes leading to divergent socio-environmental outcomes and contribute to the theory of adaptation in practice.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.

海洋社会生态系统（SES）是由许多相关的社会和环境过程（例如海洋变暖和酸化，人类迁移和海鲜贸易）塑造的。这些环境和社会过程共同对沿海海洋生态系统以及依赖它们的人类社区产生了重大影响。它们影响海洋物种的丰富和多样性，塑造社区内的社会和经济生活，并影响治理体系。了解这些影响与小型渔业尤其重要，因为它们在全球占有90％以上的渔民，并为数亿人提供食物和劳动机会。这项研究将确定并评估对塑造自然资源系统治理和可持续性的社会和环境变化的反应。这项研究的焦点包括小型渔业。在过去20年中进行了25个合作项目之后，研究团队的姿势良好，可以为SES合成和分析创建模型，该模型以不同的学科和观点为基础，并且与全球沿海海洋系统和社区中的小规模渔业有关。该项目将通过为研究生和本科生以及博士后学者的早期职业研究员以及教育和培训活动提供支持，从而建立SES科学的能力。 In addition, it will develop interdisciplinary collaboration in marine conservation and management, lead to information-sharing through further development of an open source digital platform, and engage decision makers, fishers, and other community members through workshop activities.This project will produce novel and generalizable insights concerning the operation and transformation of integrated socio-environmental systems (SES) and improve scientific understanding of adaptive responses to environmental and social change in a culturally and economically重要的跨界海洋生态系统。重点放在与小型渔业相关的SES上，而这项工作的指导下是由整体研究问题指导：观察到的反应是自适应或适应不良的反应，这是对改变自然资源的治理和可持续性以及依赖于他们的人类社区的治理和可持续性的变化的驱动因素？调查人员将合成涵盖海洋学，生态，渔业，社会经济和治理系统组件的各种数据集，这些数据集已通过先前的研究项目组装，并与区域利益相关者和生态系统持续互动。他们将使用一系列具有空间和层次结构的模型，这些模型由具有多种纪律和机构观点的个人的专家知识所启示，以检验与1）变化环境和社会驱动因素相关的假设； 2）这些驱动因素对治理安排的影响； 3）面对变化，合作治理安排应承受震惊和表现出适应性策略的能力。目的是了解导致社会环境成果不同的因果途径和过程，并为实践中的适应理论做出贡献。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优点和更广泛的审查标准通过评估来进行评估的。
