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.The project will quantitatively evaluate the impact of culturing corals and seaweed together in an effort to reduce ocean acidification and mitigate coral bleaching. This project will assess whether this practice is a feasible intervention with quantifiable benefits, and whether this approach has potential to be implemented in other coral reef locations. The study sites include Onna-son, Okinawa, Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, and Mayotte, France. The results will help in measuring the impacts of ocean acidification on marine ecosystems and will provide a summary of mitigation measures to reduce the ocean acidification impacts. The work is critical in providing information to assist scientists around the globe to understand different elements of ocean acidification which is considered to be an emerging threat in many regions.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.

该奖项为参与由 55 个国家的全球变化研究倡议通过贝尔蒙特论坛竞争性选出的项目的美国研究人员提供支持。 贝尔蒙特论坛是一个由研究资助组织组成的联盟，致力于支持跨学科方法应对全球环境变化的挑战和机遇。 它旨在通过调整和调动国际资源，加速交付最迫切需要的国际研究，以消除可持续发展的关键障碍。每个伙伴国家都在一个联盟内为其研究人员提供资金，以减轻跨境资金的需求。这种方法有助于有效利用国家资源，支持通过多国方法最好地解决全球相关主题的优秀研究，认识到全球挑战需要全球解决方案。该项目将定量评估珊瑚和海藻一起养殖的影响，以努力减少海洋酸化并减轻珊瑚白化。该项目将评估这种做法是否是一种具有可量化效益的可行干预措施，以及这种方法是否有可能在其他珊瑚礁地点实施。研究地点包括冲绳恩纳村、夏威夷卡内奥赫湾和法国马约特岛。 研究结果将有助于衡量海洋酸化对海洋生态系统的影响，并将提供减少海洋酸化影响的缓解措施摘要。这项工作对于提供信息以帮助全球科学家了解海洋酸化的不同要素至关重要，海洋酸化被认为是许多地区的新兴威胁。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的评估进行评估，认为值得支持。智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
