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.

格陵兰岛大部分地区被广阔的格陵兰冰盖覆盖，如果冰盖全部融化，将导致海平面上升 20 英尺以上。自 20 世纪 90 年代中期以来，格陵兰岛的冰融化速度特别快，对当地和全球渔业产生了影响。 AccelNet 项目 (GRISONET) 旨在促进快速有效的合作建设，并促进对格陵兰冰盖、海洋、海洋生态系统及其相互作用的发现。 GRISONET 将通过建立国际和跨学科合作来评估、规划和加速冰海生态系统研究，从而解决当前的知识差距和社区确定的需求。 网络中的网络将制定共享知识、数据和综合的战略，这将改善对格陵兰岛未来变化及其对全球社会影响的预测。GRISONET 将增进​​对冰盖/海洋热交换和热交换作用的理解。淡水在推动冰损失和引导融水远离冰盖方面发挥着作用。 该网络汇集了海洋学家、冰川学家、大气和气候科学家、海洋生态系统和渔业专家，以解决社区确定的需求。 GRISONET 的目标包括建立一个可公开访问的现有冰/海洋数据数据库、共享未来测量数据收集的协议、改进模型中冰/海洋交换的表示以及可以持续的协作网络结构。 活动将利用美国境内不同网络（例如美国北极观测网络、机构间北极研究政策委员会）、国际项目（国际冰巡逻、冰盖模型比对项目、国际北极科学委员会）以及欧洲、加拿大合作伙伴的设施的资源和日本。 通过工作组、国际研讨会、每年一次的青年科学家暑期学校、学术交流和专业培训，GRISONET 将为 40 多名美国青年科学家提供科学合作和相关跨学科科学方面的培训。通过国际网络间合作加速研究 (AccelNet) 计划旨在加速科学发现的进程，并为下一代美国研究人员进行多团队国际合作做好准备。 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，这些网络将利用研究和教育资源来应对需要重大协调国际努力的重大科学挑战。该奖项的共同资助由 NSF 十大创意之一的“航行新北极”(NNA) 计划提供。 NNA 支持的项目旨在解决快速变化的北极的融合科学挑战，增强新的研究伙伴关系，使下一代北极研究人员多样化，加强正规和非正规教育的努力，并在适当的情况下整合知识的共同生产。该奖项与这些目标相一致。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并且通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
