Opportunity Summary:
ROSES 2010 NPP Science Team for Climate Data Records (Funding Opportunity Number NNH10ZDA001N) is part of NASA Headquarters broader Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2010 solicitation. Released around February 12, 2010, the ROSES 2010 NASA Research Announcement is designed to fund a wide spectrum of basic and applied research and technology development that supports NASA Science Mission Directorate priorities. While this specific listing references an NPP Science Team focus for Climate Data Records, it sits within the larger ROSES framework that spans Earth Science, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, and Astrophysics, and it uses ROSES appendices to define the precise program elements, requirements, and evaluation details for each area.
The opportunity invites proposals that can range from traditional science and data analysis work to more technology driven or mission enabling activities. Examples of the kinds of work NASA indicates as in scope include theory, modeling, and analysis of NASA science data; development of new measurement or experiment techniques for future space missions; conceptual studies for new missions; advancement of technologies relevant to future missions; laboratory analysis techniques for extraterrestrial samples returned by spacecraft as well as supporting terrestrial samples; determination of atomic and compositional parameters needed to interpret observations and returned samples; Earth surface observations and field campaigns supporting NASA Earth system science missions; development of integrated Earth system models; and creation of applied information systems that translate Earth science research data into societal benefit. In other words, ROSES 2010 is intentionally broad, and individual program elements narrow that breadth into specific topical calls, schedules, and deliverables.
Funding levels and project scale are described as highly variable depending on the program element and the nature of the proposed work. NASA notes that awards can be under $100,000 per year for focused efforts such as data analysis, and can exceed $1 million per year for extensive activities such as developing science experiment hardware. Overall, the funds available within each ROSES program element can range from less than $1 million to several million dollars, which typically means only a few awards might be made in some elements while others could support dozens of selections, depending on proposal quality, alignment with objectives, and available budgets. The typical period of performance is about four years, with some program elements allowing shorter or longer durations up to a maximum of five years.
ROSES 2010 supports multiple award instruments, reflecting the diversity of performers and project types NASA expects. Selections may be made as grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, or interagency or intra agency transfers, depending on the proposing organization and program needs. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary, with funding instruments listed as grants and cooperative agreements, and the activity category is science and technology and other research and development. No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated.
Eligibility is broadly open in terms of organizational type: domestic and foreign organizations, government and private entities, for profit and non profit organizations, and universities can submit proposals, with no stated restrictions on the number of submissions or teaming arrangements. At the same time, NASA emphasizes a key policy constraint for international participation: investigations involving non U.S. organizations are generally conducted on a no exchange of funds basis. In practice, that means non U.S. organizations may participate, but NASA typically does not send funding to them; they would need to support their participation through their own resources or separate funding arrangements. The solicitation also points proposers to the NASA Guidebook for Proposers for detailed rules, including special cases where non U.S. proposals involve U.S. personnel for whom NASA support is requested.
The submission timeline is structured as a rolling set of due dates across the ROSES 2010 appendices, rather than a single deadline for everything. For this ROSES cycle, Notices of Intent (NOIs) were requested for most program elements beginning March 15, 2010 and continuing through February 9, 2011. Full proposals were due on schedules beginning April 30, 2010 and running through April 30, 2011, with exact dates depending on the specific program element listed in the ROSES tables and appendices. In the listing metadata, the posting date is March 4, 2010, with an original and current closing date shown as May 14, 2010, and an archive date of June 13, 2010, which reflects how this particular entry was tracked in the government opportunity database even though ROSES as a whole spans many internal deadlines.
NASA requires electronic submission and strongly signals that administrative readiness matters. Proposals must be submitted electronically by an authorized organizational representative, either through NSPIRES (NASA Solicitation and Proposal Integrated Review and Evaluation System) or via Grants.gov, depending on the program element and organizational approach. Any organization intending to propose must be registered in NSPIRES, and if submitting through Grants.gov the organization must also be registered there. NASA also requires that all investigators and participants, including principal investigators and co investigators, be registered in NSPIRES regardless of which submission portal is used. Because registration and system familiarization can take time, proposers are urged to begin well ahead of the relevant due dates.
The solicitation directs applicants to rely on ROSES 2010 appendices for the program specific details that ultimately determine whether a proposal fits, what it must contain, and how it will be reviewed. It also notes that NASA may issue amendments, clarifications, corrections, and even add new programs during the ROSES open period, and it encourages interested parties to monitor the NSPIRES solicitation page or subscribe to notifications, including an amendment archive and RSS feed hosted by NASA. For questions, the opportunity points to program officers listed within the appendices for element level guidance, and it identifies Dr. Max Bernstein at NASA Headquarters as a contact for general ROSES policies and procedures (sara@nasa.gov, telephone 202 358 0879).
