NASA ROSES-11 Amendment 20: Revised text for Appendix A.2, Land-Cover Land-Use Change (LCLUC)

Amendment 20 presents revised text for Appendix A.2, Land-Cover Land-Use Change (LCLUC), which, for this year, is now entitled Land-Cover Land-Use Change for Early Career Scientists.

The NASA LCLUC program supports research at the intersection of physical and social science involving the use of remotely sensed data. The program encourages the development of early career scientists that excel in this area of research. There is a growing community within academia, including students, that is engaging in interdisciplinary research of societal relevance.

This amendment extends the period for the eligibility to apply; those who received their Ph.D. no earlier than 2005 are eligible to propose. Step-1 proposals still due by December 1, 2011, and Step-2 proposals due by June 1, 2012.

On or about August 19, 2011, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2011” (NNH11ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ (select “Solicitations” then “Open Solicitations” then “NNH11ZDA001N”).
