Description: |
Navigating the New Arctic (NNA), one of NSF's 10 Big Ideas, embodies the Foundation's forward-looking response to
these profound challenges. NNA seeks innovations in Arctic observational networks and fundamental convergence
research across the social, natural, environmental, and computing and information sciences, and engineering that
address the intersection of natural, social, and built systems. NNA promotes initiatives that empower new research
communities, diversifies the next generation of Arctic researchers, integrates the co-production of knowledge, and
engages partnerships, particularly among international stakeholders. NNA also strongly encourages projects that
include or focus on advancing STEM education and workforce development objectives on the scientific themes
described below. Major goals of NSF's NNA Big Idea include:
Improved understanding of Arctic change and its local and global effects that capitalize on innovative and
optimized observation infrastructure, advances in understanding of fundamental processes, and new
approaches to modeling interactions among the natural environment, built environment, and social systems.
New enhanced research communities that are diverse, integrative, and well-positioned to carry out
productive research at the intersections of Arctic natural and built environments and social systems.
Research outcomes that inform U.S. national security and economic development needs and enable
resilient, sustainable Arctic communities. |

Application Details: |
This solicitation requests proposals that fall within two tracks. Track 1 supports research activities, while Track 2 is
dedicated to planning grants to develop convergence research teams to tackle projects of larger scope in the future.
This solicitation is the first of what is envisioned to be at least a five-year agency-wide program to support the
research needed to inform decisions about the economy, security, and resilience of the Nation, the larger region, and
the globe with respect to Arctic change. NSF anticipates that future calls will further define "larger scope," with the
potential to include projects up to the scale of centers and/or consortia Full Proposals:
Full Proposals submitted via FastLane: NSF Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) guidelines
apply. The complete text of the PAPPG is available electronically on the NSF website at:
