NASA ROSES-11 Amendment 26: Text for A.35, Earth Science Applications: Wildland Fires

Amendment 26 presents the text and proposal due dates for Appendix A.35, Earth Science Applications: Wildland Fires.

ROSES-11 Appendix A.35, Earth Science Applications: Wildland Fires is specifically focused on applications addressing cross-cutting and multi-disciplinary issues related to wildland fires in support of management strategies and actions, business practices, and policy analysis and decisions. Projects must span at least two of the Applied Sciences Program’s applications themes, identified within.

This solicitation will initially support one-year feasibility studies of potential applications. NASA will then down-select and continue support of a subset of these applications in subsequent, three-year projects. The three-year projects will develop the application with and transition the application to a public or private organization for sustained use in decision making and services to end users.

Proposals to this solicitation are only for the Stage 1 portion of this enterprise. Notices of Intent to propose (NOIs) are due October 27, 2011. Proposals are due December 16, 2011.

On or about September 15, 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”).
