:Application excerpt:
 
::Complex interactions among the atmosphere, the ocean, the land, the biosphere, and human behavior pose daunting challenges in understanding the causes of observed phenomena such as climate change and its associated impact on biodiversity and urbanization. Through collection, preservation, and semantic integration of data that are now very difficult to assemble and analyze, the Data Conservancy will transform the ability of scientists to answer grand challenge questions that are important to the nation and the world.

::The Tropical Ecology Assessment and Monitoring (TEAM) Network was designed to address questions that are fundamental to understanding the dynamics of biodiversity, ecosystem services and human well-being as they interact from local to global scales in the context of multiple changing drivers (e.g., climate change and land cover change). The TEAM Network is currently a partnership among Conservation International, The Missouri Botanical Garden, The Wildlife Conservation Society and the Smithsonian Institution. The TEAM Network monitors biodiversity and a set of ecosystem services using a relatively small suite of standardized protocols implemented at TEAM Sites. These protocols include: Climate, Carbon Stocks, Tree Species Diversity, Liana Species Diversity, Bird and Mammal Species Diversity and the Zone of Human Dynamics and Ecosystem Change (ZoHDEC). The protocols facilitate comparisons among sites and continents using metrics that quantify changes in climate, land use/land cover, biodiversity and carbon sequestration. The protocols were designed and vetted through a series of workshops involving more than 200 scientists from around the world and are freely available on the web. Multi-disciplinary data is collected from technician collected field measurements, mobile devices, ground based sensors and satellite sensors. As a result the TEAM Network has worked extensively to develop one of the first operational cyberinfrastructure that supports a global observatory network.  Our main cyberinfrastructure partner is the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UC San Diego.

Back to Partnership -- The following applications have been posted for review by the Partnership Committee

February 2024 Class

NASA Science Explorer - Type II

In 2023, NASA invited the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) to expand it's focus into the Earth sciences, heliophysics, planetary science, biological sciences, and physical sciences, giving rise to the digital library portal known as NASA Science Explorer (SciX). Crafted to be as invaluable to Earth science as ADS is to astrophysics, SciX efficiently cross-links diverse bibliographic and data sources, fostering inclusivity and comprehensive scientific exploration. Offering researchers unparalleled access to a wealth of knowledge, SciX actively embraces Open Science principles, indexing NASA's PubSpace, Earth Science journals, preprints, meeting abstracts, theses, data sets, software, and more. Beyond being a comprehensive library resource, SciX empowers researchers with advanced citation metrics and data visualizations to pinpoint potential collaborators, establishing itself as a dynamic resource capable of supporting accessible and collaborative scientific research across all NASA science mission directorate areas.
