The Announcement of Opportunity for the Earth System History (ESH)
Program can be found at:
http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2002/nsf02191/nsf02191.htm
The announcement includes "Modes of Arctic Variability and Warmth" as an
ESH "Area of Research Interest" (see supporting documents on the web
site). Because this is an ESH AO, proposals must emphasize ESH program
goals, including the new Arctic "Area of Research Interest" and the
relevance of the Arctic within the broader Earth System.
The deadlines for proposals are Jan 15 and Oct 15, 2003.
In fiscal year 2003, the ESH deadline is January 15, 2003. Beginning in
fiscal year 2004 (and for each year thereafter), the ESH competition
will be held in October at the beginning of the fiscal year. There will
only be one competition deadline for ESH each year. Although the new
ESH AO shows 2 dates, remember that Oct 15 is within a new fiscal year
for the US government.
