This program is closely linked with other programs of the National Science Foundation, NASA, NOAA, and others. Applications for FY 1998 awards are due June 12. CFR Part 605. Program Notice 97-12. Wetlands Conservation Proposals for FY 1998 awards from the Fish and Wildlife Service's North American Wetlands Conservation Council may be submitted any time through August 1.
All activities related to wetlands acquisition, restoration, or enhancement are eligible.
Upcoming deadlines for proposals include June 1 and October 1. In addition to being ultimately commercially viable, the developed technologies should preferably be useful within a clinical setting. The Geophysics Program supports laboratory, field, theoretical, and computational studies related to composition, structure, and processing of the earth's interior. The Tectonics Program supports studies in structural geology, tectonics, geochronology, petrology, paleomagnetics, and other fields related to understanding the tectonic history of the lithosphere through time. The Petrology and Geochemistry Program supports research on igneous, metamorphic, and hydrothermal processes that occur within the earth and other planetary bodies and on the minerals, rocks, fluids, and ore deposits resulting from these processes.
