The National Science Foundation's Aeronomy Program seeks proposals for fundamental research to understand phenomena related to the mesosphere, thermosphere, and ionosphere of the Earth's atmosphere. The program aims to expand knowledge about processes of ionization, recombination, chemical reactions, photo emission, and energy/momentum transport within and between these regions, as well as their coupling to the stratosphere and magnetosphere. The Coupling, Energetics, and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions (CEDAR) program is a key component, focusing on understanding short-term and long-term atmospheric changes through comprehensive observational, theoretical, and modeling efforts. Applicants of any type are eligible, and proposals will be evaluated based on their scientific merit, broader impacts, and alignment with the program's research objectives.

Award amounts for this program can vary substantially, with recent grants ranging from $79,139 to $4,893,936 and typically spanning 1-5 year project periods. The work is predominantly performed at academic facilities, field sites, scientific observatories, and research vessels across the United States, with opportunities for interdisciplinary and international collaboration.
