This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities and Directorate for Geosciences, totaling $200,000, supports the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) aim to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system.

The University of Wisconsin-Madison will deliver coordination network activities to improve disciplinary practices in past global change research from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025. Key products and services include developing guidance for interoperability among long-tail community curated data resources to promote adoption of common metadata standards and FAIR data principles. Additionally, the University will foster data curation and stewardship best practices, particularly for early-career researchers, and support equity and improved access to science by promoting CARE principles in disciplinary data resources. Communities of practice will be established through annual symposia, workshops, working groups, and webinars to further aims around interoperability, data science training, and broadening participation in the geosciences.
