Western Arctic Shelf-Basin Interactions  (SBI III)

PROGRAM GUIDELINES

Solicitation  07-532

SYNOPSIS

This solicitation is for proposals to conduct research aimed at understanding how the Arctic Ocean margins (from the shore to the basin) function within the arctic system as a whole. Priority will be placed on research efforts that focus on data integration, synthesis, and modeling activities that lead to new system-level understanding, rather than projects that generate new data from field studies. This solicitation is intended to support the final phase (Phase III) of the Shelf-Basin Interactions (SBI) project, which has accumulated nearly ten years of field investigation data and analyses. SBI science planning and implementation documents and additional information are available through the SBI webpage at: http://sbi.utk.edu.
