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 award provides support for the U.S. researchers to cooperate in consortia that consist of partners from at least three of the participating countries. The teams will establish transdisciplinary networks to develop innovative solutions for sustainable development pathways and seek to assess the positive and negative inter-linkages between the economy, technology, institutions with the environment, climate, biodiversity, and human well-being to understand potential pathways to a sustainable world.This project seeks to establish cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable transdisciplinary processes, methods and networks to assist stakeholders, scientists, public officers and citizens of the Pacific Islands to share common objectives and actions to achieve environmental sustainability. The project will build a network focusing on two pilot sites, Fiji and New Caledonia. The project will examine the impacts of climate change and other stressors on the ocean environment and ecosystem services. The team will investigate the consequences of these impacts on the environment, society, and economy, to develop sustainable and complementary pathways for future development and sustainable ocean stewardship. These pilot sites will create the framework and methodology and serve as a guide for application and adaptation to other interested Pacific Island Countries. PACPATH will integrate a broad range of existing data sets, generate new data sets, and develop new, locally relevant products that will rely on freely available sources such as from the Copernicus Marine Service.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。这种方法促进了国家资源的有效利用，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。该奖项为美国研究人员提供了支持，以在财团中合作，该公司由至少三个参与国家的合作伙伴组成。 The teams will establish transdisciplinary networks to develop innovative solutions for sustainable development pathways and seek to assess the positive and negative inter-linkages between the economy, technology, institutions with the environment, climate, biodiversity, and human well-being to understand potential pathways to a sustainable world.This project seeks to establish cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable transdisciplinary processes, methods and networks to assist stakeholders, scientists, public officers太平洋岛屿的公民共享共同的目标和行动以实现环境可持续性。 该项目将建立一个关注两个试点网站的网络，即斐济和新喀里多尼亚。 该项目将研究气候变化和其他压力源对海洋环境和生态系统服务的影响。 该团队将调查这些影响对环境，社会和经济的后果，以开发未来发展和可持续海洋管理的可持续和互补途径。这些试点站点将创建框架和方法论，并作为对其他感兴趣的太平洋岛屿国家的应用和适应的指南。 PALPATH将整合广泛的现有数据集，生成新的数据集，并开发新的，本地相关的产品，这些产品将依赖于自由可用的来源，例如来自Copernicus Marine Service。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影响的评估来评估Criteria通过评估的支持。
