National Research Initiative - Global and Climate Change: Carbon Cycle Science

The sustainability of agriculture, forest and rangelands depends on understanding the factors that influence climate change, the mechanisms that may enhance or mitigate this change, and its effects on food and fiber production and natural resources. Program priorities are drawn primarily from the US Climate Change Strategic Plan (http://www.climatescience.gov/Library/stratplan2003/default.htm), and include human dimensions of these issues. Past initiatives include carbon cycle science and land use and land cover change. For 2007-2008, the Program is partnering with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Applied Science Program in seeking applications in Carbon Cycle Science. Please submit applications through NASA's Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2007 funding opportunity.
