About this opportunity

The NOAA Climate Program Office is soliciting applications for its Adaptation Sciences Program through Fiscal Year 2024 funding to advance knowledge of adaptation to climate change. NOAA seeks to support transformative resilience strategies and approaches. Eligible applicants include universities, nonprofits, commercial entities, and state/local/tribal governments. Applications are due March 20, 2024 and must demonstrate scientific/technical merit, qualifications, a sound budget, and alignment with NOAA's program priorities. Awarded projects will involve substantial involvement from NOAA program managers.

Funding is available up to $150,000 per year for projects focusing on evidence building, evaluation and learning for climate adaptation. Awards between $150,000 to $300,000 over two years are available for developing a social science research agenda supporting adaptation and resilience efforts. Funded work will analyze climate impacts, vulnerabilities and strategies to inform regional and local decision-making, with awards anticipated to begin September 2024 and place of performance expected to be at applicant institutions.

Synopsis

The Adaptation Sciences (AdSci) program, an interdisciplinary research and engagement program, is housed in the NOAA Climate Program Office's (CPO's) Climate and Societal Interactions (CSI) Division. The AdSci program advances the knowledge, methods, and frameworks needed to move society beyond incremental adaptation toward more widespread, connected, and transformative adaptive pathways and resilience strategies with clear economic, social, cultural and environmental co-benefits. This work is conducted through a combination of dedicated partnerships that support capacity building and engagement activities, and competitive research awards designed to address key knowledge and information needs. Given the global complexities involved in climate impacts and society's adaptive strategies, the AdSci program supports work both within and outside of the United States.


AdSci has two core objectives:


*Developing an understanding of key drivers and conditions that shape and enable adaptation across multiple temporal and spatial scales, in particular geographies and settings where this knowledge can be practically applied to efforts to reduce risk and enhance resilience in equitable ways; and


*Identifying key aspects of and promoting opportunities for the use of scientific information to best support preparedness and planned adaptation of high value to social and economic goals.

Through the FY24 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), the AdSci Program is soliciting applications for two competitions:


1. Evidence-building, Evaluation and Learning Approaches to Support Adaptation to a Changing Climate

2. Developing a Social Science Research Agenda to Support Adaptation and Resilience
