This grant, the Frontiers in Earth System Dynamics (FESD) program, is for fostering a comprehensive understanding of the Earth’s dynamic and interconnected systems. It aims to support inter-disciplinary and multi-scale research into how Earth’s subsystems interact and respond to perturbations. The program seeks to catalyze significant advancements by improving data resolution and modeling capabilities, enabling more realistic simulations of complex processes. A key objective is to enhance the ability to forecast disruptive or threshold events and deepen knowledge regarding the resilience of the Earth and its various components. This initiative targets research poised to make major contributions to global system understanding.

| Description: | The Earth is often characterized as "dynamic" because its systems are variable over space and time, and they can respond rapidly to multiple perturbations. The goals of the Frontiers in Earth System Dynamics (FESD) program are to: (1) foster an inter-disciplinary and multi-scale understanding of the interplay among and within the various sub-systems of the Earth, (2) catalyze research in areas poised for a major advance, (3) improve data resolution and modeling capabilities to more realistically simulate complex processes and forecast disruptive or threshold events, and (4) improve knowledge of the resilience of the Earth and its subsystems. |
