Amendment 9: Due Date delayed for Appendix A.24, Enhancing the Capability of Computational Earth System Models and NASA Data for Operation and Assessment.
This solicitation offers investigators an opportunity to analyze, assess, and increase the impact of NASA data in research and operational environments, particularly in the areas of weather prediction, climate projection assessment, and global carbon cycle modeling in anticipation of carbon management regulations. This solicitation seeks three areas of proposals: (a) Acceleration of Operational Use of Research Data including Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation (JCSDA), (b) data for IPCC climate projection assessment, and (c) computational support of Earth system modeling.
This amendment delays the NOI due date for Appendix A.24. The change in peer review contract and concomitant move of computer hardware means that the NSPIRES web interface through which proposals and NOIs are submitted will not be available from Thursday July 15 through Sunday July 18. Thus, the NOI due date for Appendix A.24 has been changed to Thursday, July 22, 2010. The proposal due date remains unchanged at September 17, 2010. Table 2 and Table 3 of the Summary of Solicitation for this NRA have been updated to reflect this change in the due date of the NOI.
