About this opportunity

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is seeking proposals for the Solar Terrestrial grant opportunity, which supports fundamental research on the processes by which energy is generated by the Sun, transported to the Earth, and deposited in the terrestrial environment. The key research areas include space weather impacts, solar activity, and the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetosphere. The grant is open to all applicant types, and the evaluation will focus on the scientific merit, broader impacts, and feasibility of the proposed research. Important dates include the posting date of June 6, 2025, with no specified deadline for submissions.

The Solar Terrestrial grant program is part of the NSF's Geosciences division, which has a broad mandate to expand scientific knowledge about the integrated Earth system. Recent awards under this program have ranged from $79,139 to $4,893,936, typically spanning 1-5 year project periods. The research is expected to be conducted at academic facilities, field sites, scientific observatories, and research vessels across the United States, with opportunities for interdisciplinary and international collaboration.

Synopsis

Supports research on the processes by which energy in diverse forms is generated by the Sun, transported to the Earth, and ultimately deposited in the terrestrial environment. Major topics include space weather impacts, helioseismology, the solar dynamo, the solar activity cycle, magnetic flux emergence, solar flares and eruptive activity, coronal mass ejections, solar wind heating, solar energetic particles, interactions with cosmic rays, and solar wind/magnetosphere boundary problems.
