This project will develop the Center for Collective Impact in Earthquake Science, which has the vision to become a leading-edge earthquake research center dedicated to improving resiliency from seismic hazards in an equitable, accessible, and sustainable manner. The mission will be to advance earthquake science with the aim of meeting the natural hazard mitigation needs of all communities in regions of low probability, high impact earthquake risk. Low probability disasters tend to have an oversized impact on local communities. Additionally, even small- to moderate-magnitude human-made (induced) earthquakes induced by anthropogenetic activities have resulted in heightened public awareness, damages to the built environment, and the shutting-down of economic and energy infrastructure. Low probability, high impact earthquakes sometimes occur in places not easily identified by the theory of plate tectonics and typically present unique challenges to understanding how communities respond to risks from these earthquakes. By studying low probability, high impact earthquakes, including induced events, the project will develop strategies for better identifying and potentially quantifying seismic hazards, plus inform many aspects of fundamental earthquake science of broad importance. The goals of the center will be to: 1) Advance basic earthquake science and engineering; 2) Establish a foundation for sharing, value-driven understanding of science; 3) Be responsive to the needs of all kinds of communities through use-inspired research; 4) Recruit, retain, and train the next generation of diverse earth scientists; and 5) Develop a framework for impactful geoscience that translates results of scientific discovery into actions that can improve resilience and reduce risk from seismic hazards. To achieve these goals requires an innovative and robust research plan that incorporates community engagement. The project will adopt the collective impact model for establishing this center, which develops a network of community members, organizations, and institutions through the development of a common agenda, centralized support, continuous communication, mutually reinforcing activities, and shared measurement. The center will emphasize research with potential to respond to the needs of vulnerable populations that have been historically underserved by current earthquake science, engineering, and public policy. The investigators will solicit pilot projects and use them these pilot projects to establish mechanisms for increasing partnership and for evaluation of the proposals. Using these pilot projects as case studies, a strategic plan we will be developed on how to structure the center. All projects will begin as pilot projects, be evaluated and given feedback, and then transition to a full project when the center is fully funded. In this fashion, the project can guarantee that the full-scale projects meet the goals of the center prior to implementation. Each project must include four elements: 1) the basic science question that must align with the research themes discussed above, 2) the use-inspired research where results may lead to implementation of practical solutions for the community, 3) the social impact of the project, and 4) the community engagement. The pilot projects will be designed to address key science challenges and reach deep into the communities that they will impact. Our initial projects may include projects on 1) investigating earthquake risk in under-resourced communities, 2) using citizen science to understand the earthquake hazard in New England, 3) developing new techniques to get more information out of seismic data, 4) refining the earthquake hazard in a vulnerable, bi-national, multi-lingual community (El Paso, TX), and 5) using crowdsourcing to help with cataloging vulnerable buildings. Priority will be given to projects that engage low-resourced communities (such as small rural towns) or historically marginalized populations (such as low-income or immigrant populations). Second, pilot projects will be asked to include an element of workforce development, particularly of those who are historically under-represented in geosciences. Third, pilot projects will be asked to articulate their contributions towards promoting interdisciplinary research or practice. Fourth, full center projects will be asked to fund graduate and/or undergraduate students and provide opportunities for students to be cross trained between projects. By adopting collective impact as a guiding principle for the center along with funding pilot projects, the center will, by necessity, make Inclusive Excellence, Diversity, Equity, and Community a fundamental principle of the center.

该项目将发展地震科学中的集体影响中心，该中心有愿景成为一个领先的地震研究中心，致力于以公平，易于访问和可持续的方式提高地震危害的弹性。 任务是提高地震科学，以满足低概率，高影响地震风险的所有社区的自然危害需求。低概率灾害往往会对当地社区产生过大的影响。此外，即使是由人类发生活动引起的人性化地震至中等地震（引起的）地震，也导致公众意识提高，对建筑环境的损害以及对经济和能源基础设施的关闭。低概率，高影响地震有时会发生在板块构造理论不容易确定的地方，通常会提出独特的挑战，以了解社区如何应对这些地震的风险。通过研究低概率，包括诱发事件在内的高影响力地震，该项目将制定策略，以更好地识别和潜在地量化地震危害，并为基本地震科学的许多方面提供广泛重要的重要性。该中心的目标将是：1）进步基本的地震科学和工程； 2）为分享，价值驱动的科学理解建立基础； 3）通过以使用启发的研究来响应各种社区的需求； 4）招募，保留和培训下一代不同的地球科学家； 5）为有影响力的地球科学开发一个框架，将科学发现的结果转化为可以提高弹性并降低地震危害风险的行动。为了实现这些目标，需要一项创新且强大的研究计划，以结合社区参与。该项目将采用集体影响模型来建立该中心，该模型通过开发共同的议程，集中的支持，持续的沟通，相互加强的活动和共同的衡量标准来开发社区成员，组织和机构网络。该中心将强调研究，并有可能响应当前地震科学，工程和公共政策在历史上乏味的脆弱人群的需求。调查人员将征求试点项目，并使用这些试点项目来建立增加伙伴关系和评估建议的机制。将这些试点项目作为案例研究，这是一项战略计划，我们将针对如何构建中心。所有项目将从试点项目开始，评估并给予反馈，然后在中心充分资助时过渡到一个完整的项目。以这种方式，该项目可以保证全面项目在实施之前符合中心的目标。每个项目必须包括四个要素：1）必须与上面讨论的研究主题保持一致的基本科学问题，2）使用启发性的研究结果可能导致社区实施实用解决方案，3）3）项目的社会影响，以及4）社区参与。试点项目将旨在应对关键科学挑战，并深入到他们将影响的社区。我们的最初项目可能包括关于1）研究不足社区中的地震风险的项目，2）使用公民科学了解新英格兰的地震危险，3）3）开发新技术以从地震数据中获取更多信息，4）在易于攻击的，双向的，多语言社区（El cataso）（El cataso，tx，tx）和5）和5 crows and crows and carcol and crowss and 5）和5。将优先考虑与低资源社区（例如小城镇）或历史上边缘化的人口（例如低收入或移民人口）相关的项目。其次，将要求试点项目包括劳动力发展的要素，特别是在地球科学中代表不足的人中。第三，将要求试点项目表达他们对促进跨学科研究或实践的贡献。第四个中心项目将被要求为研究生和/或本科生提供资金，并为学生提供在项目之间进行交叉培训的机会。通过将集体影响作为中心的指导原则以及试点项目的资助，该中心将有必要使卓越，多样性，公平和社区成为该中心的基本原则。该奖项得到了地球科学划分和地球科学局领导力领导力的地球科学机会的支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准通过评估来获得支持的。
