NASA's ROSES 2025: A.17 Hydrosphere invites research proposals on hydrosphere topics, requiring a Step-1 proposal by Oct 8, 2026 and Step-2 by Jan 28, 2027, with dual anonymous peer review.
Funder: NASA Headquarters
Due Dates: October 8, 2026 (Step-1 proposal) | January 28, 2027 (Step-2 proposal)
Funding Amounts: Typical period of performance is 3 years; award size varies by project; no specified ceiling or floor.
Summary: Supports research advancing understanding of the Earth's hydrosphere through NASA's Earth Science Division under the ROSES-2025 program.
Key Information: Step-2 proposals require prior submission of a compliant Step-1 proposal; dual-anonymous peer review applies.
This opportunity, part of NASA's Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES-2025), solicits research proposals focused on the Earth's hydrosphere. The program element is managed by NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Earth Science Division, and aims to advance scientific understanding of hydrospheric processes, interactions, and their broader impacts. Proposals may address observational, modeling, or theoretical studies, and are expected to align with NASA's strategic research goals in Earth system science. The program encourages both basic and applied research that leverages NASA data, missions, or technology.
