Description

The Terrestrial Ecosystem Science (TES) program in the Climate and Environmental Sciences Division (CESD), Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), announces its interest in receiving research applications seeking to improve the understanding and representation of terrestrial ecosystems in ways that advance Earth system model parameterizations and capabilities. This FOA will consider applications that utilize and couple measurements, experiments, modeling and/or synthesis of terrestrial ecosystems across a continuum from the subsurface to the top of the vegetated canopy and from molecular to global scales. TES hereby announces its interest in grant applications that advance the understanding and predictive representation of terrestrial ecosystem in the following areas: 1) Interactions and feedbacks between aboveground and belowground processes; and, 2) The role of disturbance at the terrestrial-aquatic interface. Applicants are required to pose their research applications in the context of representing terrestrial ecosystem processes in ways that improve the predictability of Earth system models.

Catch-all / unrestricted eligibility mark · DE-FOA-0002043

Grants.gov marks Terrestrial Ecosystem Science with a catch-all / unrestricted eligibility code (Unrestricted / see official listing).
