This award provides support to U.S. researchers participating in a project competitively selected by a 55-country initiative on global change research through the Belmont Forum. The Belmont Forum is a consortium of research funding organizations focused on support for transdisciplinary approaches to global environmental change challenges and opportunities. It aims to accelerate delivery of the international research most urgently needed to remove critical barriers to sustainability by aligning and mobilizing international resources. Each partner country provides funding for their researchers within a consortium to alleviate the need for funds to cross international borders. This approach facilitates effective leveraging of national resources to support excellent research on topics of global relevance best tackled through a multinational approach, recognizing that global challenges need global solutions.This project focuses on a critical issue in ocean sustainability. The ocean provides resources and ecosystem services to multiple marine sectors and stakeholders and the goal of ocean sustainability is to accomplish a fair and sustainable use of these resources and services. This means simultaneously achieving economic development (blue growth), environmental sustainability, social equity and inclusion across space and time, in a context of growing demands. Often, the needs and actions of the various sectors and stakeholders are at cross purposes to one another resulting in conflict. This project seeks to develop and implement qualitative modeling strategies to address various ocean conflicts. The project will investigate six case studies located in three ocean regions with diverse income levels and characterized by rapid ecological and/or social change such as ocean warming, acidification or resource exploitation, urbanization, industrial development. The project will assess the origin, drivers, and mitigation strategies of these ocean conflicts in each case study where a different combination of social and ecological pressures together with trade-off decisions trigger ocean conflicts. Data produced from the case studies will be used for graphic visualizations that construct different narratives about the conflict that will ultimately promote long lasting equitable resource allocations and impartial transitions to achieve sustainable ocean management. The project will benefit a broad range of local and national-level stakeholders, including local communities, government, marine planning agencies, and local and national decision-makers by increasing the knowledge base of sustainable ocean multi-use practices to help improve and foster the blue (ocean) economy while preserving ocean space and resources.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.

该奖项为参加一个由55个国家通过Belmont论坛进行全球变更研究的计划竞争性选择的项目提供了支持。 Belmont论坛是一个研究资助组织的财团，专注于支持全球环境变化挑战和机遇的跨学科方法。 它的目的是加快迫切需要的国际研究的交付，以通过结盟和动员国际资源来消除可持续性的关键障碍。每个合作伙伴国家为财团内的研究人员提供资金，以减轻资金越过国际边界的需求。这种方法促进了有效利用国家资源的利用，以支持通过跨国方法解决全球相关性主题的出色研究，并认识到全球挑战需要全球解决方案。该项目着重于海洋可持续性的关键问题。 海洋为多个海洋领域和利益相关者提供资源和生态系统服务，海洋可持续性的目标是实现对这些资源和服务的公平和可持续使用。 这意味着在需求不断增长的情况下，同时实现了经济发展（蓝色增长），环境可持续性，社会公平和包容性。 通常，各个部门和利益相关者的需求和行动彼此之间存在交叉目的，导致冲突。 该项目旨在制定和实施定性建模策略来解决各种海洋冲突。 该项目将调查位于三个海洋地区的六个案例研究，其收入水平不同，其特征是快速生态和/或社会变革，例如海洋变暖，酸化或资源开发，城市化，工业发展。 该项目将在每个案例研究中评估这些海洋冲突的起源，驱动因素和缓解策略，在每个案例研究中，社会和生态压力的不同组合以及权衡决策引发了海洋冲突。案例研究产生的数据将用于图形可视化，这些可视化构建了有关冲突的不同叙述，这些叙述最终将促进持久的公平资源分配和公正的过渡，以实现可持续的海洋管理。 该项目将通过增加可持续海洋多用途实践的知识基础，以改善和促进蓝色（海洋）经济的知识基础，在维护蓝色（海洋）经济方面提高蓝色（海洋），同时保留了NSF的范围，通过评估NSF的法定传教士和资源，将有助于改善和促进蓝色（海洋）经济的知识，从而使众多的合法传教士和资源通过提高蓝色（海洋）经济的支持，将受益于各种本地和国家利益相关者，包括当地社区，政府，海洋规划机构以及当地和国家决策者。 标准。
