This project brings together professionals in science, public policy, law, and journalism in an interdisciplinary symposium on sea level rise (SLR) aimed at addressing opportunities and challenges to effective U.S. coastal resilience policy and practices.The Environmental Law Institute will engage scholars and student researchers from law schools and academic departments to: 1) develop white papers on key legal topics related to sea level rise; and 2) deliver their findings at an interdisciplinary symposium in Florida. The research will underscore themes raised at previous workshops such as the inevitability of significant sea level rise, the increasing urgency of developing comprehensive responses to it, and the necessity of adapting the legal system to address immediate and accelerating societal impacts. The potential Broader Impacts include promoting the ability of scientists, policymakers, and the general public to understand and make decisions based on the emerging science of sea level rise and coastal adaptation and resilience. The conference and its attendant activities will contribute to increasing cross-disciplinary understanding of the issues by the participants and the communities with whom they interact and enable them to communicate more effectively as necessary.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.

该项目汇集了科学，公共政策，法律和新闻业专业人士在海平面上升的跨学科研讨会（SLR）中，旨在应对有效的美国沿海弹性政策和实践的机遇和挑战。环境法律研究所将与法律学校和学术部门的学者和学生研究人员互动，以：1）与：1）开发有关Sea Level Inspics of Sea Leals Rises Rises Rises of Sea Leastic sea Leals Rises的白人; 2）在佛罗里达州的跨学科研讨会上发表他们的发现。这项研究将强调在先前的研讨会上提出的主题，例如海平面急剧上升的必然性，对其进行全面反应的紧迫性以及适应法律制度以解决即时和加速社会影响的必要性。潜在的更广泛的影响包括促进科学家，政策制定者和公众根据海平面上升和沿海适应和韧性的新兴科学理解和做出决定的能力。会议及其随之而来的活动将有助于提高参与者和与之互动的社区对问题的跨学科理解，并使他们能够根据需要进行更有效的沟通。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来通过评估来通过评估来提供支持的。
