In support of the National Integrated Drought Information System, SARP announces 2015 awards

The NOAA Sectoral Applications Research Program (SARP) did not hold a competition in 2015 due to severe budget cuts.  However, the SARP funding received from NIDIS to support the Coping with Drought Initiative, along with a small contribution from the SARP general funds, will be used to fund five top-rated proposals saved from the 2014

Monitoring the Global Ocean through Ocean Climate Indicators

NOAA’s Climate Monitoring program competitively selected two new three-year projects totaling $855,734 in grants to produce observation-based global and (preferably) regional indices that facilitate monitoring the status, trends, extremes, and variability of ocean physical properties for the benefit of research, predictions, and decision makers. The two new projects join 13 multi-year projects totaling $2.2 million, that were funded last year in the same competition.
