Most of Greenland is covered by the expansive Greenland Ice Sheet, which, if it all melted, would cause sea level to rise by more than 20 feet. Greenland has been losing ice at a particularly rapid rate since the mid-1990s, with impacts for local and global fisheries. This AccelNet project (GRISONET) is designed to facilitate rapid and effective collaboration-building and foster discovery about the Greenland ice sheet, the ocean, the marine ecosystems and their interactions. GRISONET will address current knowledge gaps and community-identified needs by establishing international and interdisciplinary collaborations to assess, plan for, and accelerate ice-ocean-ecosystem research. The network of networks will develop strategies for the sharing of knowledge, data and syntheses, which will improve projections of future changes in Greenland and of their impact on global societies.GRISONET will advance understanding of the role that ice sheet/ocean exchanges of heat and freshwater play in driving ice loss and in routing the meltwater away from the ice sheet. The network of networks engages oceanographers, glaciologists, atmospheric and climate scientists, marine ecosystem and fisheries experts to tackle the community-identified needs. GRISONET objectives include the establishment of a publicly-accessible database of existing ice/ocean data, protocols for the shared collection of future measurements, improved representation of ice/ocean exchanges in models, and a collaborative network structure that can be sustained. Activities will leverage resources from different networks within the US (e.g. US Arctic Observing Network, Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee), international programs (International Ice Patrol, Ice Sheet Modeling Intercomparison Project, International Arctic Science Committee) and facilities of partners from Europe, Canada and Japan. Through working groups, international workshops, yearly summer schools for junior scientists, scholarly exchanges and professional training, GRISONET will prepare over 40 junior US scientists in science collaboration and the relevant cross-disciplinary science. The Accelerating Research through International Network-to-Network Collaborations (AccelNet) program is designed to accelerate the process of scientific discovery and prepare the next generation of U.S. researchers for multiteam international collaborations. The AccelNet program supports strategic linkages among U.S. research networks and complementary networks abroad that will leverage research and educational resources to tackle grand scientific challenges that require significant coordinated international efforts. Co-funding for this award is being provided by Navigating the New Arctic (NNA) program one of NSF's 10 Big Ideas. NNA supports projects that address convergence scientific challenges in the rapidly changing Arctic, empower new research partnerships, diversify the next generation of Arctic researchers, enhance efforts in formal and informal education, and integrate the co-production of knowledge where appropriate. This award aligns with those goals.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.

格陵兰岛的大部分被广阔的格陵兰冰盖覆盖，如果全部融化，它将导致海平面上升20英尺以上。自1990年代中期以来，格陵兰一直以特别快速的速度损失冰，对地方和全球渔业产生影响。 这个Accelnet项目（Grisonet）旨在促进有关格陵兰冰盖，海洋，海洋生态系统及其相互作用的快速有效合作建设和促进发现。 Grisonet将通过建立国际和跨学科合作来评估，计划和加速冰山生态系统研究，以解决当前的知识差距和社区认同的需求。 网络网络将制定共享知识，数据和综合的策略，这将改善格陵兰岛未来变化的预测及其对全球社会的影响。Grisonet将提高人们对冰盖/海洋往来在驱动冰上损失以及将冰损失以及将Meltwater远离冰盖方面的冰盖/海洋交流的作用。 网络的网络吸引了海洋学家，冰川学家，大气和气候科学家，海洋生态系统和渔业专家，以满足社区认同的需求。 Grisonet目标包括建立现有冰/海洋数据的公开访问数据库，用于共享未来测量值的协议，改善模型中的冰/海洋交流的表示以及可以维持的协作网络结构。 活动将利用美国境内不同网络的资源（例如美国北极观察网络，机构间北极研究政策委员会），国际计划（国际冰巡逻，冰盖模型对比项目，国际北极科学委员会）以及来自欧洲，加拿大和加拿大和日本的合作伙伴的设施。 通过工作组，国际研讨会，初级科学家的年度暑期学校，学术交流和专业培训，Grisonet将为40多名美国科学合作中的初级科学家和相关的跨学科科学做好准备。通过国际网络到网络合作（ACCELNET）计划进行加速研究旨在加速科学发现的过程，并为下一代美国研究人员做好了多次国际合作的准备。 Accelnet计划支持美国研究网络和国外互补网络之间的战略联系，这将利用研究和教育资源来应对需要大量协调国际努力的宏伟科学挑战。通过浏览新的北极（NNA）计划，为此奖项提供了共同的资金。 NNA支持在迅速变化的北极，赋予新的研究伙伴关系，使下一代北极研究人员多样化，加强正规和非正式教育方面的努力以及在适当的情况下整合知识的项目。该奖项与这些目标保持一致。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准的评估值得支持的。
