[esip-semantictech] Cyberinfrastructure for Sustained Scientific Innovation (CSSI) - Data and Software (NSF 18-531)

[Carlos Rueda]

Hi Lewis, 

Thanks for initiating this discussion, and sorry, I had to leave the call at the end of the hour. 
I would be interested, please keep me posted.

> Technologies to promote seamless discovery, access, and transfer of data and
> metadata across data resources and centers that are supported by GEO.

> =======================================

> The Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) is interested in the following research
> fields: atmospheric and geospace science, earth science, ocean science, and
> polar science. The directorate welcomes proposals that focus on the development
> and implementation of automated, executable, and optimized workflows that:

>    * are capable of real- and near-real-time archiving and manipulation of sensor
>     and other field-based data, including experimental and/or simulation data;
>    * promote seamless discovery, access, and transfer of data and metadata across
>     data resources and centers that are supported by GEO;
>    * “leverage-through-sharing” of existing investments in university, federal, and
>     commercial computing and infrastructure;
>    * engage community models for the assimilation and use of data for
>     initialization, state estimation, or sensitivity analysis; and
>    * encourage the development or reuse of computational techniques (i.e.,
>    high-performance distributed computing, machine learning, cloud computing,
>    etc.) without which simulations would be difficult to conduct or large volumes
>    of data could not be manipulated, analyzed, and transferred. The proposed
>    computational techniques must be framed as sub-tasks within the proposed
>     workflow.

> All workflows must be designed to overcome significant bottlenecks to solving
> compelling Earth science questions.

> Programmatic areas of interest within GEO include:

> The Office of Polar Programs (OPP)

> is interested in activities that advance understanding of the current and future
> states of

> high latitude ocean circulation, atmospheric conditions, marine and terrestrial
> ecosystems, and biogeochemistry, and the

> mechanisms that drive the seasonal evolution of sea and land ice melt. OPP
> welcomes interdisciplinary research that focuses

> on how the components of the polar regions (land, atmosphere, ocean, sea and
> land ice, etc.) interact as a system, with

> feedbacks and unanticipated emergent properties. OPP also welcomes proposals
> related to polar astrophysics and geospace

> research. Investigators who are interested in Arctic social science research are
> encouraged to also read the SBE

> Programmatic Areas of Interest below, and to contact the cognizant OPP and SBE
> program officers.

> The Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences (AGS)

> is interested in answering fundamental science questions related

> to atmospheric and geospace research, including a wide variety of important
> processes that impact humans and society, such

> as space weather, tropospheric weather, physical and dynamic meteorology,
> climate, and air quality.

> The Division of Earth Sciences (EAR)

> is interested in improving our understanding of the structure, composition, and
> evolution

> of the Earth, the interaction with life, and the processes that govern the
> formation and behavior of the Earth's materials. EAR

> interests include the fields of "solid-earth" science (geology and paleontology,
> geochemistry, geophysics, continental

> hydrology, geomorphology, tectonics, and geobiology).

> The Division of Ocean Sciences (OCE)

> is interested in activities that advance understanding of all aspects of the
> global

> oceans and ocean basins, including their interactions with people and the
> integrated Earth system.
