Description: Atmospheric System Research (ASR) in the Climate and Environmental Sciences Division (CESD), Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), supports research on key cloud, aerosol, precipitation, and radiative transfer processes that affect the Earth&#8217;s radiative balance and hydrological cycle, especially processes that limit the predictive ability of regional and global models. ASR hereby announces its interest in research grant applications for observational, data analysis, and/or modeling studies that use observations supported by CESD, including the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) scientific user facility and the ASR program, to improve understanding and model representation of specified aerosol processes, high-latitude atmospheric processes, and ice cloud processes.
