Current Solicitations
NASA ROSES-2008 Applied Sciences Proposal Telecons
May 30, 2008, 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.
The NASA Science Mission Directorate solicits project proposals through the NASA Research Announcement entitled Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES). Since 2005, the annual ROSES solicitation encompasses all aspects of basic and applied supporting research and technology in space and Earth sciences for the NASA Science Mission Directorate. ROSES serves as a joint, overarching announcement that encompasses all the programs within the Science Mission Directorate. Each program has one or more elements within ROSES to specify topics and solicit proposals supporting its objectives.
The NASA Earth Science Division Applied Sciences Program has two elements in ROSES-2008, Elements A.18 and A.19. The descriptions and schedules for the respective elements are below.

ROSES 2008 Element A.18:
Decision Support through Earth Science Research Results
The NASA Applied Sciences Program seeks proposals in this ROSES-2008 element to integrate Earth science research results into decision making activities related to one or more of the Program’s applications areas. Proposals may: A) Enhance the performance of existing organizations’ decision-making activities and processes through the integration of NASA Earth science products, or B) Develop new capabilities for decision making, provided that the need and activity can be clearly defined and that end users are strongly involved in the project and expressly committed to maintaining, supporting, and using the decision-making activity. Multi-organizational and disciplinary teams are strongly encouraged. ROSES-2008 Element A.18 (link TBA)
