In recent years, this has resulted in 2-3 top awards in both Life Sciences and in Engineering. Post-doctoral Fellows also are eligible to participate. There will be one award for post-doctoral fellows across the two post-doc categories. To participate: 1. Submit an abstract of your research by 11:59 PM, Tuesday February 04, 2020.

In light of recent appropriations, we have significantly increased the amount of available funding for these awards: * A maximum of $3,000,000 will be awarded for projects focusing on the Midwestern region. Funding for individual projects will not exceed $600,000. * $800,000-$1,000,000 will be awarded for projects focusing on the Northeastern region. Funding for individual projects will not exceed $390,0000.

Projects may focus on any of the following: * Expansion, engagement, synthesis, or implementation related to recent or current research initiatives to deliver the best available science to resource managers * Climate impact science in response to natural or cultural resource management challenge * Novel research in the design and evaluation of climate adaptation, including anticipatory, autonomous, and planned adaptation These emphases align with the NE CASC’s overarching goals, which include: * Responding to high priority management challenges * Fostering substantive, sustained engagement between scientists and managers * Advancing the understanding of the impacts of climate change on fish, wildlife, water, and land * Providing science to support sound resource management and adaptation Statements of interest must be responsive to the NE CASC FY20 Priorities identified by the NE CASC advisory committee and adhere to the proper format and guidelines for statements of interest.
