Additional Information on Eligibility: All types of domestic applicants are eligible to apply, except nonprofit organizations described in
section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that engaged in lobbying activities after
December 31, 1995.
Federally affiliated entities must adhere to the eligibility standards below:
1. DOE/NNSA National Laboratories
DOE/NNSA National Laboratories are eligible to submit applications under this FOA and may
be proposed as subrecipients under another organization’s application. If recommended for
funding as a lead applicant, funding will be provided through the DOE Field-Work Proposal
System and work will be conducted under the laboratory’s contract with DOE. No administrative
provisions of this FOA will apply to the laboratory or any laboratory subcontractor. If
recommended for funding as a proposed subrecipient, the value of the proposed subaward will be removed from the prime applicant’s award and will be provided to the laboratory through the DOE Field-Work Proposal System and work will be conducted under the laboratory’s contract
with DOE. Additional instructions for securing authorization from the cognizant Contracting
Officer are found in Section VIII of this FOA.
2. Non-DOE/NNSA FFRDCs
Non-DOE/NNSA FFRDCs are not eligible to submit applications under this FOA but may be
proposed as subrecipients under another organization’s application. If recommended for funding as a proposed subrecipient, the value of the proposed subaward may be removed from the prime applicant’s award and may be provided through an interagency agreement to the FFRDC’s sponsoring Federal Agency. Additional instructions for securing authorization from the
cognizant Contracting Officer are found in Section VIII of this FOA.
3. Other Federal Agencies
Other Federal Agencies are not eligible to submit applications under this FOA but may be
proposed as subrecipients under another organization’s application. If recommended for funding as a proposed subrecipient, the value of the proposed subaward may be removed from the prime applicant’s award and may be provided through an interagency agreement. Additional

Additional Information

Agency Name: Office of Science
Description:

The DOE SC programs in Biological and Environmental Research (BER) and Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) announce their interest in receiving applications from multi-disciplinary teams to establish collaborative projects under the SC-wide Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program in specific targeted topic areas that relate to the BER and ASCR missions. This FOA invites new research applications for the SciDAC-5 Partnerships in Earth System Model Development that enable or accelerate scientific discovery employing deep, necessary, and productive collaborations between earth-system scientists on the one hand and applied mathematicians and computer scientists on the other, that overcome the barriers between these disciplines and consequently fully exploit the capabilities of DOE high-performance computing (HPC) in order to accelerate and enhance the DOE’s Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) development, supported by the Earth System Model Development Program Area (ESMD) of the Earth and Environmental Systems Modeling Program (EESM) within the Earth and Environmental Systems Sciences Division (EESSD) under BER. This SciDAC opportunity targets current challenges of the E3SM to improve its representations and performance of the Atlantic Meridional Ocean Circulation (AMOC), the Antarctic ice sheet, marine biogeochemistry, and quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), as well as improved physics and numerics to enhance coupling of the various components with high and variable resolutions of the E3SM.
