Amendment 48: A.5 Carbon Cycle Science Final Text and Due Dates.

A.5 Carbon Cycle Science (CCS) solicits proposals for research focused on the improved understanding of carbon stocks and fluxes between and within ecosystems, and their exchange with the atmosphere. It also targets improved understanding of carbon cycle processes and feedbacks in critical ecosystems, as highlighted by the research topics below:

  1. Carbon Fluxes within the ocean
  2. Carbon Cycle of Critical Ecosystems
  3. Vulnerability of Dryland Ecosystems
  4. Vulnerability of Tropical Forests
  5. Carbon Fluxes between Terrestrial Ecosystems and the Atmosphere

Substantive use of remote sensing and/or airborne data is required in all studies.

ROSES-2024 Amendment 48 releases final text and due dates for A.5 CCS. NOIs are requested by October 17, 2024, and proposals are due February 3, 2025. Proposals submitted to this program will be evaluated using a dual-anonymous review process. See Section 5 and in the associated "Guidelines for Anonymous Proposals" document under "Other Documents" on the NSPIRES page for this program element.

On or about September 16, 2024, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2024" (NNH24ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024

Questions concerning A.5 CCS may be directed to Laura Lorenzoni at Laura.Lorenzoni@nasa.gov and/or Ryan Pavlick at ryan.p.pavlick@nasa.gov.

Going Back-to-School with NASA Data

As students head back to school, teachers have a new tool that brings NASA satellite data down to their earthly classrooms. For over 50 years of observing Earth, NASA’s satellites have collected petabytes of global science data (that’s millions and millions of gigabytes) – with even more terabytes more coming in by the day. Since 2004, […]
