Abstract:
NOAA’s National Centers for Coastal and Ocean Science Competitive Research Program (NCCOS/CRP) is pleased to announce a Fiscal Year 2024 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Social, Cultural, and Economic Assessment of Harmful Algal Blooms.
https://coastalscience.noaa.gov/about/funding-opportunities/
For this opportunity, NCCOS/CRP is soliciting proposals that assess the social, cultural and economic impacts of HAB events. Research funded through this opportunity may guide future research on the impacts of HAB events and inform the selection of management strategies. NOAA is making up to approximately $1.5 million available through this competition and anticipates supporting 3 to 5 projects, for up to three years, at the level of $300,000 to $400,000 per year per proposal pending availability of appropriations.
NCCOS/CRP envisions funding at least one project focused on social, cultural and/or subsistence impacts of HAB events and at least one project focused on economic impacts of HAB events.
A letter of intent is required. The deadline for letters of intent is October 13, 2023; and full applications are due by 11:59 PM ET on January 17, 2024. Please see the full NOFO in Grants.Gov for additional details and instructions.
