This workshop will bring together members of the established and emerging scientific community interested in seafloor deformation using geodetic tools deployed on the seafloor. The workshop will offer the first opportunity to foster communications between scientists and engineers to explore how to utilize existing resources to maximize science goals. Geodetic instruments can capture motions offshore that give us important insight into earthquakes and submarine volcanic activity. The workshop is focused on seafloor deformation because ninety percent of Earth's active tectonic plate boundaries are underwater and our ability to measure the deformation that leads up to an earthquake is predominantly on-land, which doesn’t capture most of the seafloor movement. This is particularly important along subduction zones, where tsunamis may be generated by the movement on a fault during an earthquake. The conference will include 90 participants. The timing of the conference is important because a new resource is being developed for the community, a set of seafloor geodetic instruments that can measure precise long-term horizontal and short-term vertical movements. At the workshop, the community will discuss how to apply these resources to maximize science and accessibility of data, leading to proposals for future offshore projects. The workshop will broaden participation in the field of seafloor geodesy and a significant number of the participants will be early career scientists. The workshop will offer an opportunity to foster connections between scientists and engineers.This workshop will bring together and build the seafloor geodesy community, including scientists from academic institutions, government agencies, and international partners focused on understanding scientific and engineering problems associated with measuring deformation on the seafloor. During the workshop the organizers will address the current status of existing, the development of emerging, and plans for future technologies in the field. As well, the workshop is essential to develop plans for the use of a recently funded pool of GNSS-Acoustic and Bottom Pressure Recorder seafloor geodetic instruments. The workshop will identify high priority scientific questions and targets for this pool of instruments and the community preferred structure for managing the instrument pool. The community will help identify the highest priority scientific questions and targets addressable with the instrument pool and develop a plan for managing the equipment to effectively answer geophysical questions in earth deformation in the offshore environment.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.

该研讨会将使用部署在海底上的地板变形感兴趣的已建立和新兴科学界的成员。该研讨会将为培养科学家与工程师之间的沟通提供第一个机会，以探索如何利用现有资源来最大化科学目标。大地仪器可以在海上捕获动议，从而使我们对地震和海底火山活动的重要见解。该研讨会集中在海底变形上，因为地球活跃的构造板边界中有百分之九十是在水下，我们测量导致地震的变形的能力主要是在陆上，这并没有捕获大部分海底运动。这尤其重要，沿俯冲带，在地震期间，在断层上的运动可能会产生海啸。会议将包括90名参与者。会议的时机很重要，因为正在为社区开发一种新资源，该社区是一组可以衡量精确的长期水平和短期垂直运动的海底测量工具。在研讨会上，社区将讨论如何应用这些资源以最大程度地提高科学和数据的可访问性，从而为未来的离岸项目提出建议。该研讨会将扩大对海底大地测量学领域的参与，大量参与者将是早期的职业科学家。提供了一个机会来建立科学家与工程师之间的联系。该研讨会将汇集在一起​​并建立海底的地理社区，包括学术机构，政府机构和国际合作伙伴的科学家，专注于了解与测量海藻变形相关的科学和工程问题。在研讨会期间，组织者将解决现有的现状，新兴的发展以及该领域未来技术的计划。同样，研讨会对于制定了使用最近资助的GNSS声学和底部压力录音机海底大地测量器池的计划至关重要。该研讨会将确定该工具池的高优先级科学问题和目标，以及社区的首选结构来管理仪器池。社区将有助于确定最高优先级的科学问题，并针对可以通过仪器池解决的目标，并制定计划，以管理设备有效地回答地球物理问题的地球物理问题。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力和更广泛的影响来审查Criteria，通过评估来通过评估来获得支持。
