Reminder: new NSF GeoPRISMS Solicitation, deadline for proposals is August 1 (for 2014 only)
Following significant community input and a great response from NSF we are pleased to announce that there will be likely logistical support for fieldwork in the Aleutians. The official text is below. The deadline for proposals has been adjusted to August 1 (for 2014 only).
The GeoPRISMS Program plans to arrange logistical support for up to two seasons of community field projects, in the form of ship and helicopter support in the Aleutians. Pending proposal success, availability of funds and vessel scheduling, up to 30 days could be available in each of the 2015 and 2016 summer field seasons. This coordination of field logistics at the Alaska Primary Site should maximize the science return for the available funds. Proposals involving field work in the Aleutians should include, as they normally would, personnel budgeting for travel to/from AK, personnel costs during field work, and a timeline for the work. However, we expect to negotiate, at the award stage, final budgets and work plans so that we may best take advantage of the shared field platforms supported by the program.
Questions about this particular effort should be directed to PO Jennifer Wade: jwade@nsf.gov; 703.292.4739
