Description
This
ROSES-2014 NRA (NNH14ZDA001N) solicits basic and applied research in support of
NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD). using
space-based observations in order to improve understanding of the structure and
function of global terrestrial ecosystems, their interactions with the
atmosphere and hydrosphere, and their role in the cycling of the major
biogeochemical elements and water. The focus of this solicitation is the initial
research to begin the Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) field campaign -- a large-scale study of ecosystem
responses to environmental change in western North America’s Arctic and boreal
region and the implications for social-ecological systems. The Overarching
Science Question for ABoVE
is: How vulnerable or resilient are ecosystems and society to environmental
change in the Arctic and boreal region of western North America? Research for
ABoVE will link field-based, process-level studies
with geospatial data products derived from airborne and satellite sensors,
building a foundation for improving the analysis and modeling capabilities
needed to understand and predict ecosystem responses and societal implications.
Names, due dates, and links for the individual calls are given in Tables 2
and 3 of this ROSES-2014 NRA. Table 2, organized by due date, can be found at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2014table2
and Table 3, organized by subject area can be found at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2014table3.
Interested proposers should monitor http://nspires.nasaprs.com/
or subscribe to the electronic notification system there for additional new
programs or amendments to this ROSES NRA through February 2015, at which time
release of a subsequent ROSES NRA is planned. Questions concerning general ROSES
NRA policies and procedures may be directed to Max Bernstein, Lead for Research,
Science Mission Directorate, at sara@nasa.gov.
