Amendment 35: B.14 H-SWO2R Second Opportunity

ROSES-18 Amendment 35: Second Opportunity for Heliophysics Space Weather Operations to Research

This amendment presents a second opportunity in program element B.14 Second Heliophysics Space Weather Operations to Research.

NASA is supporting this funding opportunity in coordination with DOC/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) to promote space weather operations-to-research (O2R) activities. For this opportunity, the objective of O2R is broadly defined as the joint pursuit of improvements of operational capabilities and advancements in related fundamental research. For this opportunity, NASA, NOAA, and NSF have identified the following focus area for research and development to advance forecast models of energetic particles in the heliosphere:

Improve forecasts of the energetic proton and/or heavy ion conditions in the heliosphere due to solar eruptions.

Proposals to this program will be taken by a two-step process, in which the Notice of Intent is replaced by a mandatory Step-1 proposal submitted by an Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR). Step-1 Proposals are due 02/01/2019 and Step-2 Proposals are due 04/05/2019.
