CEDAR email: Important Announcement related to NSF CEDAR solicitation update

[Raizada, Shikha]

Dear Colleagues,

    NSF revises solicitations periodically to accommodate any new research trends and community needs. We have recently revised NSF CEDAR<https://new.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/cedar-coupling-energetics-dynamics-atmospheric-regions/nsf25-510/solicitation> solicitation, which is now NSF 25-510.

Please note that the target change has been modified as indicated below:
New CEDAR proposals target date: March 5, 2025.

In addition to the previous research topics that were part of the past CEDAR solicitation, the new version will also accept proposals that include comparative aeronomy studies of other planets' atmospheres in our solar system directly relevant to Earth's upper atmosphere.
The synopsis of the revised CEDAR solicitation can be found on the NSF website and is given below for your convenience:

Synopsis:
The Coupling, Energetics, and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions (CEDAR) program supports research to increase our understanding of the behavior of atmospheric regions from the middle atmosphere upward through the thermosphere and ionosphere into the exosphere. Projects explore coupling, energetics, chemistry, and dynamics on regional and global scales. The research topics include investigations of upper atmosphere responses due to a) processes driven by the lower atmospheric perturbations and (b) solar radiation and particle inputs from above. The activities supported by this program include observations from ground-based and space-based platforms, as well as theory and modeling of the upper atmosphere of the Earth and other planets in our solar systems. Novel approaches that include AI and ML tools and open data and open science practices are encouraged.

We encourage you to spread this word to interested scientists.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any inquiries.

Best Regards
