Please share this announcement among your respective communities. The Terrestrial Ecosystem Science (TES) program within the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE), Office of Science (SC) Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER), 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 Funding Opportunity Announcement (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.
Applications from this FOA will support the scientific mission for Terrestrial Ecosystem Science (TES) activity (more information on the program can be found at http://science.energy.gov/ber/research/cesd/terrestrial-ecosystem-science/ and http://tes.science.energy.gov/. DE-FOA-0002043 - Terrestrial Ecosystem Science (http://science.energy.gov/grants/foas/open/) Please note the schedule below. Deadline for Pre-applications (required): January 24, 2019; 5 pm eastern time Deadline for Proposals: March 29, 2019; 11:59 pm eastern time Please see the announcement for additional details. __________________________________________ Daniel B.
