Coming Soon: Long-Term Trends Funding Opportunity – NOAA, The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration RESTORE Science Program – Inergency
[ad_1]
The NOAA, The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration RESTORE Science Program plans to release its next funding opportunity in March or April 2024 to support projects that will contribute to our knowledge of long-term trends in the Gulf of Mexico ecosystem.
This funding announcement will invite proposals that plan to identify, track, understand, or predict trends and variability in the Gulf of Mexico’s natural resources and the abiotic and biotic factors driving those trends. Applicants are required to form a team of researchers, resource managers, and other relevant stakeholders focused on the selected natural resources they intend to investigate.
The Science Program plans to make approximately $17.5 million available for this competition to fund approximately six projects that will run for five years with the option for a five-year, non-competitive renewal award for high-performing projects.
A letter of intent (2-page maximum) is required for each proposal. It will be due about eight weeks after the full announcement for the competition is publicly released. A full proposal will be due about nine weeks after the Science Program provides feedback on the letter of intent.
After the competition is announced, the Science Program will hold a series of webinars to clarify the application process and answer questions. Please email noaarestorescience@noaa.gov with any questions that arise before then.
Keep an eye out for more updates and information in the coming months!
