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.The project aims to develop and build a platform to help understand and predict the transmission dynamics of important zoonotic diseases at the interface of ecology, wildlife and humans. The platform will integrate various tiers of databases and analytical approaches developed by diverse research studies to a single platform, allowing better accessibility to different regions of the world to help monitor and control disease outbreaks. Eco2Health will specifically target avian influenza virus transmission in their platform development and will integrate several analytical tools from existing databases, including the following: a database generated by citizen scientist such as eBird or breeding bird survey with self-developed statistical package; a viral sequence from GenBank database or self-generated from local isolates; and local meteorological parameters and regional climate phenomenon database including El Nino-Southern Oscillation and Indian Ocean Dipole. Eco2Health will also generate an early warning system and risk map by combining different statistical/mathematical and machine-learning based approaches to better understand and predict transmission dynamics of avian influenza viruses over time and space.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.The project aims to develop and build a platform to help understand and predict the transmission dynamics of important zoonotic diseases at the interface of ecology, wildlife and humans.该平台将将各种研究的各种数据库和分析方法整合到一个平台上，从而使世界上不同地区的可访问性有助于监测和控制疾病暴发。 Eco2Health将在其平台开发中专门针对禽流感病毒传播，并将整合现有数据库中的几种分析工具，包括以下数据库：由eBird或Breeding Bird Surveed与自我开发的统计套件产生的数据库；来自GenBank数据库的病毒序列或从局部分离株产生的自我生成；以及当地的气象参数和区域气候现象数据库，包括El Nino-Southern振荡和印度洋偶极子。 Eco2Health还将通过将基于不同的统计/数学和机器学习方法相结合，以更好地理解和预测随时间和空间的禽流感病毒的传播动态来产生预警系统和风险图。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过使用该基金会的知识优点和广泛影响来评估NSF的法定任务。
