Description
The purpose of this document is to advise the
public that NOAA is soliciting research proposals for projects of 3 to
5 years in duration for development of modeling and mapping tools to
better understand and predict the impacts of sea level rise on coastal
ecosystems, including ecologically and economically valuable natural
resources, to support proactive coastal management and mitigation
decisions. The area of interest includes the coastal ecosystems in the
northern Gulf of Mexico, ranging from the eastern boundary of the
Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve to the western extent
of the Mississippi coast. Projects should be interdisciplinary,
multiple investigator, and well integrated studies designed to develop
capabilities for understanding, predicting, and mitigating the effects
of long term sea level rise. Funding is contingent upon the
availability of Fiscal Year 2010 Federal appropriations. It is
anticipated that final recommendations for funding under this
announcement will be made in early calendar year 2010, and that
projects funded under this announcement will have a July 2010, start
date. Electronic Access: Background information about NOAA's efforts in
the Ecological Effects of Sea Level Rise Program can be found at http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?from=leavingFR.html&log=linklog&to=http://www.cop.noaa.gov/stressors/climatechange/welcome.html.
