Opportunity Summary:
ROSES 2011 Heliophysics Data Environment Enhancements (HDEE) was a NASA Headquarters funding opportunity released under the broader Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2011 umbrella solicitation (NRA number NNH11ZDA001N). It targeted research and development activities that strengthen the heliophysics data environment, meaning efforts that improve how heliophysics data are accessed, managed, processed, analyzed, and used by the science community. HDEE sat within a much larger ROSES framework that funds both basic and applied research and technology across NASA Science Mission Directorate programs, including Earth Science, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, and Astrophysics.
The solicitation opened around February 18, 2011, with a rolling set of deadlines across ROSES program elements. For ROSES overall, Notices of Intent (NOIs) were requested for most elements beginning March 18, 2011 (and continuing through February 8, 2012), and proposals were due starting April 29, 2011 through April 30, 2012 depending on the specific appendix/program element schedule. For the HDEE listing as posted on Grants.gov, key posting metadata included a posted date of April 13, 2011, and an original/current closing date of July 22, 2011 (with archive on August 21, 2011). Applicants were expected to follow the specific appendix instructions and due dates provided in the ROSES tables for the relevant program element, since ROSES used multiple appendices with different schedules and requirements.
In terms of what NASA was willing to fund, ROSES 2011 broadly covered theory, modeling, and data analysis; development of experiment techniques and mission concepts; advanced technologies relevant to future missions; laboratory and analytical work tied to samples and measurements; field campaigns and observations supporting missions; integrated modeling; and applied information systems that help convert research data into broader use. Within that landscape, HDEE was about the data side of heliophysics: enhancements to data systems, tools, services, and environments that enable more effective discovery, access, interoperability, and analysis of heliophysics observations and related products. Awards could support anything from smaller, focused efforts (often under $100K per year) to large, extensive activities (sometimes exceeding $1M per year), depending on scope and the specific program element budget. NASA noted that program-element funding pools ranged from less than one million to several million dollars, which typically translates into anywhere from a handful to dozens of selections depending on merit and program priorities. Typical periods of performance were about four years, with some exceptions and an upper limit generally capped at five years.
From an administrative and eligibility standpoint, proposals had to be submitted electronically, either through NSPIRES (NASA’s proposal system) or through Grants.gov, with NSPIRES registration required in all cases. Organizations submitting via Grants.gov also had to be registered there in addition to NSPIRES. Submission had to be made by an authorized organizational representative, and all investigators and participants (such as co-investigators) needed NSPIRES registration. NASA allowed proposals from a wide range of organization types, including universities, nonprofits, for-profits, and government entities, and did not restrict the number of proposals or teaming arrangements. However, as a general policy NASA primarily funds U.S. institutions; non-U.S. organizations could participate under NASA’s “no exchange of funds” policy (meaning NASA would not send money to the non-U.S. entity), with additional instructions referenced in the NASA NRA Guidebook. Some joint solicitations can include special rules for foreign participation, but absent that, proposers were directed to the guidebook sections that cover non-U.S. organizations and cases involving U.S. personnel requesting NASA support.
The funding instruments available included grants and cooperative agreements (and in some cases contracts or inter/intra-agency transfers), chosen based on the nature of the work and the proposing organization. The opportunity was categorized under CFDA 43.001 (Science) and did not require cost sharing or matching. NASA emphasized that ROSES was amended periodically and advised proposers to monitor the NSPIRES solicitation page and the ROSES 2011 web archive for amendments, clarifications, and corrections through the solicitation’s active period. For general ROSES policy and procedural questions, the contact listed was Dr. Max Bernstein at NASA Headquarters (sara@nasa.gov, 202-358-0879), while element-specific questions were handled by the program officers named in the relevant ROSES appendices.
