isciplinary topics.

"SEES Research Coordination Networks are a unique portfolio of NSF-funded activities that bring together researchers to develop sustainability science," says David McGinnis, lead NSF program director for the SEES-RCN awards.

"By linking U.S. and international scientists in research on energy, water, biofuels, sustainable cities, engineering and manufacturing sustainability, and related subjects," says McGinnis, "the SEES RCNs are creating avenues where new directions in sustainability science will emerge."

2011 SEES-RCN Awards

The Marcellus Shale Research Network
PI: Susan Brantley, Pennsylvania State University
Summary: This research coordination network will generate knowledge about natural gas extraction from the Marcellus shale in Pennsylvania, the largest site of new shale gas in the United States by organizing water chemistry and flow data collected from the shale. The network will enable sustainable development of the Marcellus Shale through the creation of a database of information from geochemical and hydrological studies.

Urban Sustainability: Research Coordination and Synthesis for a Transformative Future
PI: Daniel Childers, Arizona State University
Summary: This project will establish an interdisciplinary Urban Sustainability Research Coordination Network to integrate and synthesize urban research while developing solutions-oriented products to enable sustainable transitions for cities. The network of academics, students, postdocs, policy-makers, city planners, managers and other urban players represents 14 cities in various stages of transition.

Climate, Energy, Environment, and Engagement in Semi-Arid Regions (CE3SAR)
PI: Luis Cifuentes, Texas A & M University, Corpus Christi
Summary: The CE3SAR RCN is a comprehensive partnership of researchers at south Texas and other major research universities that will develop and test an in
