<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The NSF’s Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences announces the new iteration of the DASI solicitation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The Distributed Array of Small Instruments (DASI) solicitation is designed to address the increasing need for high spatial and temporal resolution measurements to determine the local, regional, and global scale
processes that are essential for addressing the fundamental questions in solar and space physics. This solicitation will be formally divided into two tracks: 1) development of instrumentation for future deployment in arrays and 2) deployment and operation
of existing instruments in distributed arrays. This DASI solicitation emphasizes both strong scientific merit and a well-developed plan for student training and involvement of a diverse workforce.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Typical awards from this competition are expected to be $200,000 - $500,000 per year for 3 to 4 years in duration. The total award size over its duration shall not exceed $2,000,000. In FY24, NSF expects to fund 3 to 4 awards contingent
on the availability of funds. NSF anticipates funding a mix of project sizes across Track 1 (Instrument Development) and Track 2 (Deployment and Operations).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
