Antarctic Research Not Requiring U.S. Antarctic Program (USAP) Field Support
Funds Antarctic science that needs no field logistics — existing data and samples, modelling, and work at analogue sites elsewhere.
This is the other half of NSF's Antarctic pair: the same scientific aims, for projects that do not need the US Antarctic Program's field support.
The aims match the fieldwork notice. Understanding how the Antarctic region interacts with global systems, the links between Antarctic and Southern Ocean processes and the wider Earth system, fundamental understanding of the biological, geochemical and …
Antarctic and Southern Ocean research needing no US Antarctic Program field logistics — cross-disciplinary work, analysis of existing data and samples, modelling, and studies at analogue sites outside Antarctica.
