Collaborations in Mathematical Geosciences (new NSF solicitation)

Dear Colleagues:

NSF has updated the 'Collaboration in Mathematical Geosciences' (CMG) solicitation, and will be accepting new proposals in 2009 and 2010. The solicitation number is NSF 09-520, and it can be accessed at:

http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=503342

Full Proposal Window : February 24, 2009 - March 10, 2009
Full Proposal Window : January 8, 2010 - January 22, 2010

Program Synopsis:

The purpose of the Collaboration in Mathematical Geosciences (CMG) activity is to enable collaborative research at the intersection of mathematical sciences and geosciences, and to encourage cross-disciplinary education. Projects should fall within one of three broad themes: (1) mathematical and statistical modeling of complex geosystems, (2) understanding and quantifying uncertainty in geosystems, or (3) analyzing large/complex geoscience data sets. Research projects supported under this activity must be essentially collaborative in nature. Research groups must include at least one mathematical/statistical scientist and at least one geoscientist. Proposals that address problems with relevance to global change and sustainability are especially encouraged.

FYI: Topics ARE NOT restricted to global change or sustainability.

Feel free to contact me if you need further information.
