Encourages proposals to support both the Arctic and Antarctic research communities by leveraging existing data, physical samples and non-physical samples to advance polar science.

Encourages submission of proposals for projects that use/reuse long-term environmental data to advance understanding of ecological and evolutionary questions.

This activity is designed to enhance the professional development of science educators through participation in new or on-going NSF-funded research projects. GEO encourages current grantees to identify talented teachers for participation in this opportunity.

Invites proposals to existing NSF programs focused on advancing understanding of geoscience with artificial intelligence or machine learning.

Encourages proposals for workshops, research coordination networks, and Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) to assemble teams of geoscientists and computer scientists working on geosciences-themed artificial intelligence research.

Encourages proposals that foster innovative and diverse uses of collections and/or associated digital data for novel research, education and training applications within and across STEM.

Invites U.S.-Swiss collaborations at the intersection of the Swiss National Science Foundation’s three research divisions and participating NSF programs.

Invites proposals from researchers hindered by teaching and mentoring loads, start-up packages, institutional infrastructure, or by lack of research support personnel. Proposals would be submitted to existing programs in the Geosciences Directorate.

Invites U.S.- German collaboration on proposals investigating climate change that will undergo a single review process.

Encourages proposals on research and development projects that facilitate access to polar research efforts in undergraduate education, informal science education and preK-12 science or math education.

Encourages interdisciplinary research proposals in collaboration with Nordic and Canadian research communities to engage Indigenous perspectives and address security, natural resources and societal changes for the sustainable development of the Arctic.

Invites geoscientists to seek supplemental funding for graduate students to complete six-month internships with public health or medical professionals on mutually beneficial projects exploring the linkage of human health and the earth environment.
