The Department of Energy’s Biological and Environmental Research program is offering grants for Environmental System Science focusing on improving terrestrial ecosystem understanding. This grant aims to enhance Earth system model capabilities by studying ecosystem processes, disturbances, and biogeochemical fluxes in Arctic, Boreal, and coastal ecosystems. Research applications should emphasize representing terrestrial ecosystem processes to advance Earth system model predictability. The closing date for submissions is March 9, 2018.

| Description: | The Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program within the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) hereby announces its interest in receiving research applications for Environmental System Science (ESS). As part of the ESS program, the Terrestrial Ecosystem Science activity seeks to improve the understanding and representation of terrestrial ecosystems in ways that advance Earth system model parameterizations and capabilities. This FOA will consider applications that utilize and couple measurements, experiments, modeling and/or synthesis of terrestrial ecosystem across a continuum from the subsurface to the top of the vegetated canopy and from molecular to global scales. ESS hereby announces its interest in grant applications for improved quantitative and predictive understanding of critical terrestrial ecosystems processes and feedbacks preferentially within high latitude (i.e., Arctic and Boreal) and coastal ecosystems in the following areas: Interactions between above and below-ground processes and traits, impacts of disturbances on ecosystems, and coupled biogeochemical and energy fluxes at the terrestrial-aquatic interface. Applicants are required to pose their research applications in the context of representing terrestrial ecosystem processes appropriate for improving the predictability of Earth system models. |
