PROGRAM GUIDELINES
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies &
Procedures Guide (PAPPG), NSF 09-1, was issued on October 1, 2008
and is effective for proposals submitted on or after January 5, 2009. Please be
advised that the guidelines contained in NSF 09-1 apply to proposals submitted
in response to this funding opportunity. Proposers who opt to submit
prior to January 5th, 2009, must also follow the guidelines
contained in NSF 09-1.
One of the most significant changes to the PAPPG is
implementation of the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act.
Each proposal that requests funding to support postdoctoral researchers must
include, as a separate section within the 15-page project description, a
description of the mentoring activities that will be provided for such
individuals. Proposals that do not include a separate section on
mentoring activities within the Project Description will be returned without
review (see the PAPP Guide Part I: Grant Proposal Guide Chapter
II.C.2.d for further information).
Apply to PD 98-1620 as follows:
For full proposals submitted via FastLane:
standard Grant Proposal Guidelines apply.
For full proposals submitted via Grants.gov:
NSF Grants.gov Application Guide; A Guide for the Preparation and Submission of NSF Applications via Grants.gov Guidelines apply
(Note: The NSF Grants.gov Application Guide is available on the Grants.gov website and on the NSF website at:

SYNOPSIS
The Marine Geology and Geophysics program supports research on all aspects of geology and geophysics of the ocean basins and margins, as well as the Great Lakes.
The Program includes:
- Structure, tectonic evolution and volcanic activity of the ocean basins, the continental margins, the mid-ocean ridges, and island arc systems
- Processes controlling exchange of heat and chemical species between seawater and ocean rocks
- Genesis, chemistry, and mineralogic evolution of marine sediments
- Processes controlling deposition, erosion and transport of marine sediments
- Past ocean circulation patterns and climates and
- Interactions of continental and marine geologic processes
