Description

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has announced solicitation NNH18ZDA001N-2HSWO2R, called “Second Opportunity for Heliophysics Space Weather Operations to Research”.  This amendment NO. 35 presents a second opportunity in program element B.14 Second Heliophysics Space Weather Operations to Research. In response to the need to advance and coordinate the Nation’s space weather research and operations capabilities, NASA has established the Heliophysics Space Weather Science Applications program under which this second incarnation of the Operations-to-Research (H-SWO2R) program element resides.  NASA is supporting this funding opportunity in coordination with DOC/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) to promote space weather operations-to-research (O2R) activities. For this opportunity, the objective of O2R is broadly defined as the joint pursuit of improvements of operational capabilities and advancements in related fundamental research. For this opportunity, NASA, NOAA, and NSF have identified the following focus area for research and development to advance forecast models of energetic particles in the heliosphere:  Improve forecasts of the energetic proton and/or heavy ion conditions in the heliosphere due to solar eruptions.
