The Dynamics of Coupled Natural and Human Systems (CNH) Program offers this grant to support interdisciplinary research focusing on integrated socio-environmental systems. This CNH Program grant is for projects examining the intricate processes and interactions between human and natural systems across diverse scales. Successful proposals must analyze four critical components: the dynamics of a natural system, the dynamics of a human system, how the natural system impacts the human system, and how the human system affects the natural system. The CNH Program also supports Research Coordination Networks (CNH-RCNs) designed to foster collaborative activities that promote future comprehensive research in this vital area.

| Description: | The Dynamics of Coupled Natural and Human Systems (CNH) Program supports interdisciplinary research that examineshuman and natural system processes and the complex interactions among human and natural systems at diverse scales. Research projects to be supported by CNH must include analyses of four different components: (1) the dynamics of a natural system; (2) the dynamics of a human system; (3) the processes through which the natural system affects the human system; and (4) the processes through which the human system affects the natural system. CNH also supports research coordination networks (CNH-RCNs) designed to facilitate activities that promote future research by broad research communities that will include all four components necessary for CNH funding. |
