About this opportunity
The EarthCube federal grant opportunity is sponsored by a partnership between the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) and Directorate for Computer & Information Science & Engineering (CISE) Division of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (ACI). This community-driven activity aims to transform research in the academic geosciences community by creating an open, transparent, and inclusive environment to share data and knowledge, accelerating the understanding and prediction of the Earth system. The EarthCube portfolio will consist of interconnected projects and activities engaging the geosciences, cyberinfrastructure, computer science, and associated communities. Funding opportunities to develop elements of the EarthCube environment will be described in Amendments to this solicitation, which will include details on the parameters, scope, conditions, and requirements of the proposal call.
The federal grant awards under this opportunity will be flexible and responsive to emerging needs and collaborative processes, with project periods and funding levels varying based on the specific scope and requirements outlined in the Amendments. The work is anticipated to be predominantly performed at academic facilities, field sites, scientific observatories, and research vessels across the United States, with numerous opportunities for interdisciplinary and international collaboration.
Synopsis
EarthCube is a community-driven activity sponsored through a partnership between the NSF Directorate for Geosciences (GEO)and the Directorate for Computer & Information Science & Engineering (CISE) Division of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (ACI)to transformresearch inthe academic geosciences community. EarthCube aims to create a well-connected and facile environment to share data and knowledge in an open, transparent, and inclusive manner, thus accelerating our ability to understand and predict the Earth system. Achieving EarthCube will requirea long-term dialog between NSF and the interested scientific communities to develop cyberinfrastructure that is thoughtfully and systematically built to meet the current and future requirements of geoscientists. New avenues will be supported to gather community requirements and priorities for the elements of EarthCube, and to capture the best technologies to meet these current and future needs. The EarthCube portfolio will consist of interconnected projects and activities that engage the geosciences, cyberinfrastructure, computer science, and associated communities. The portfolio of activities and funding opportunities will evolve over time depending on the status of the EarthCube effort and the scientific and cultural needs of the geosciences community. This umbrella solicitation for EarthCube allows funding opportunities to be flexible and responsive to emerging needs and collaborative processes. The EarthCube vision and goals do not change over time, and this section of the solicitation will remain constant. Funding opportunities to develop elements of the EarthCube environment will be described in Amendments to this solicitation. Amendments will appear in the Program Description section of the solicitation and will include details on the parameters, scope, conditions, and requirements of the proposal call. Researchers who receive alerts related to solicitation releases will receive notification when the EarthCube solicitation is updated with an Amendment.
