NEON and the NSF Environmental Synthesis Center Solicitation (NSF 10-521) and Other Relevant Solicitations (10-524, 10-530, NNL10ZB1011C)

The recent NSF solicitation for an Environmental Synthesis Center mentions NEON, OOI and other NSF observatories as potential partners. NEON is excited to provide transformational capabilities in support of current or potential future NSF solicitations and welcomes inquiries from prospective Principal Investigators. NSF’s proposed investment in NEON infrastructure, and particularly data and data management capability, workflow environment for complex models and algorithms and data publishing capability, would be available to a Synthesis Center. As an NSF Facility, NEON will provide infrastructure to the scientific and educational communities, including future research projects, Centers and other activities. However, as an NSF-supported Implementing Organization, NEON, Inc. cannot offer exclusive support to any proposal in any way that would unfairly affect the outcome of competition. Please contact the NEON Principal Investigator with any inquiries (dschimel@neoninc.org).
