About this opportunity

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering a grant opportunity under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) called the Coupling, Energetics, and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions (CEDAR) program. This broad-based research program aims to enhance the understanding of atmospheric behavior from the middle atmosphere through the thermosphere, ionosphere, and exosphere. The program supports observations, theory, and modeling of the coupling, energetics, chemistry, and dynamics of these regions on regional and global scales. The grant is open to unrestricted applicant types, and the evaluation will focus on advancing scientific knowledge and developing innovative technologies in this domain.

The award amounts and project durations are flexible, with recent grants ranging from $79,139 to $4,893,936 and typically spanning 1-5 years. The research is primarily conducted at academic facilities, field sites, scientific observatories, and research vessels across the United States, with opportunities for interdisciplinary and international collaboration.

Synopsis

The Coupling, Energetics, and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions (CEDAR) program is a broad-based research program with the goal of understanding the behavior of atmospheric regions from the middle atmosphere upward through the thermosphere and ionosphere into the exosphere in terms of coupling, energetics, chemistry, and dynamics on regional and global scales. These processes are related to the sources of perturbations that propagate upward from the lower atmosphere as well as to solar radiation and particle inputs from above. The activities within this program include observations from ground-based and space-based platforms, theory, and modeling.
