2. The NSF Directorate of Geosciences (GEO) will host the next GEO-EMpowering BRoader Academic Capacity and Education (GEO-EMBRACE) drop-in Virtual Office Hour (VOH) on 24 July 2023 (Monday) between 4-5 PM Eastern Time.  We invite faculty members at emerging (non-R1) academic institutions (e.g., Community Colleges, Tribal Colleges and Universities, MSIs, HBCUs, Undergraduate, Masters, and R2 Institutions) to engage with GEO Program Directors to address concerns and ask questions about opportunities found in the GEO-EMBRACE web portal<https://www.nsf.gov/geo/geo-embrace/>.

3. The NSF Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) has released a new Dear Colleague Letter on Extreme, Compound, and Cascading Hazards (EC2H)<https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2023/nsf23125/nsf23125.jsp>. The DCL encourages submission of proposals that advance our fundamental understanding of natural disasters, extreme events, and other natural hazards including extreme space weather.  The focus is on proposals that explore:  1) system of systems approaches, 2) cascading or compound hazards, 3) interactions between longer-term trends and extreme events, and 4) processes occurring at multiple scales ranging from local to regional to planetary.
