The Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) of the U.S. Department of Energy is offering a grant for environmental system science research. This grant aims to enhance Earth system model capabilities by advancing the representation of terrestrial ecosystems and subsurface processes. The focus is on improving climate model projections and informing energy decisions. Applicants are encouraged to conduct measurements, experiments, modeling, or synthesis to gain a better quantitative and predictive understanding of non-managed terrestrial ecosystems in the context of a changing climate. The deadline to submit research applications is December 5, 2014.

| Description: | The Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) hereby announces its interest in receiving research applications for environmental system science. The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to improve the representation of terrestrial ecosystems and subsurface processes appropriate for advancing Earth system model capabilities, thereby improving the quality of climate model projections and providing the scientific foundation needed to inform DOE?s energy decisions. The FOA will consider applications that focus on measurements, experiments, modeling or synthesis to provide improved quantitative and predictive understanding of terrestrial ecosystems that, in turn, influence atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations and thereby affect the greenhouse gas forcing of climate. The emphasis of this FOA is to understand non-managed terrestrial ecosystems in the cont ext of a changing climate. Applicants should pose their research applications in the context of representing terrestrial ecosystem and/or subsurface processes appropriate for improving the predictability of climate based on Earth system models. |
