About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation's Geomorphology and Land-use Dynamics (GLD) program is seeking grant applications for innovative research into the processes that shape and modify landscapes. The program encourages research that quantitatively investigates the coupling and feedback among such processes, their rates, and their relative roles, especially in the contexts of variation in climatic, biologic, and tectonic influences and in light of changes due to human impacts. The research may involve fieldwork, modeling, experimentation, theoretical development, or combinations thereof. Proposals will be evaluated based on their potential to expand scientific knowledge about the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences.
The GLD program typically awards grants ranging from $79,139 to $4,893,936, with project periods spanning 1-5 years. The work is 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
The Geomorphology and Land-use Dynamics Program supports innovative research into processes that shape and modify landscapes over a variety of length and time scales. The program encourages research that quantitatively investigates the coupling and feedback among such processes, their rates, and their relative roles, especially in the contexts of variation in climatic, biologic, and tectonic influences and in light of changes due to human impacts. Such research may involve fieldwork, modeling, experimentation, theoretical development, or combinations thereof.
