About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation's Hydrologic Sciences (HS) program is seeking grant proposals for fundamental research on continental water processes at all scales. The program supports observational, experimental, theoretical, and modeling approaches related to hydrologic processes, water fluxes, hydrologic transport, and the coupling of hydrological processes with other systems. The program is particularly interested in research that advances understanding of hydrologic responses to changes in land use, climate, or watershed management. Proposals will be evaluated based on their intellectual merit and potential broader impacts. The application deadline is not specified.
Funding for successful proposals is not quantified, but the Geosciences program, under which the HS program is assigned, has recently awarded grants ranging from $79,139 to $4,893,936 with typical project periods of 1-5 years. 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.
Synopsis
The Hydrologic Sciences Program is a disciplinary program within the Division of Earth Sciences. Hydrologic science has a distinct focus on continental water processes at all scales, and the program supports research with a primary focus on these processes. The program supports fundamental research about water on and beneath the Earth's surface, as well as relationships of water with material and living components of the environment. A major focus is the study of hydrologic processes (e.g., rainfall and runoff; infiltration and subsurface flow; evaporation and transpiration), as well as fluxes of water (e.g. in soils, aquifers, and streams). Many projects involve the study of hydrologic transport (e.g., of dissolved solutes, sediment), coupling of hydrological processes with other systems (e.g., ecosystem processes, geochemical cycles, food and energy systems, socio-ecological systems), or hydrologic responses to change (e.g., changes in land use, climate, or watershed management). Observational, experimental, theoretical, and modeling approaches are supported.
