ROSES 2025: A.40 Science of Coastal Resilience
This funding opportunity supports research aimed at improving the understanding and resilience of coastal regions facing climate change and environmental challenges, targeting eligible institutions and researchers in the U.S. and abroad.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has announced a funding opportunity under the Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2025 solicitation. The specific program element, A.40 Science of Coastal Resilience, aims to support research that enhances understanding and resilience in coastal regions, particularly in response to climate change and environmental stressors. This program is part of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD) efforts to advance scientific knowledge in space and Earth sciences.
Funding will be provided through grants or cooperative agreements. The opportunity falls under the category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development, specifically designated under Assistance Listing 43.001 for Science. The expected number of awards has not been specified, and there is no stated award ceiling or floor. Cost sharing or matching is not a requirement for applicants.
Eligible applicants must be affiliated with an institution listed on NASA’s NSPIRES system. While NASA generally funds only U.S. institutions, foreign organizations may apply under a no-exchange-of-funds policy, with specific provisions outlined in NASA’s Proposer’s Guide. Some program elements may be jointly issued with non-U.S. organizations, particularly those involved in international space science collaborations.
The application process includes an optional Notice of Intent (NOI) due via NSPIRES by May 1, 2025. The final application submission deadline is June 26, 2025. Applications must be submitted through NSPIRES, and proposers are required to retrieve the associated instructions and required forms from the application package. Most program elements under ROSES-2025 will be available for submission through Grants.gov only if requested at least 30 days in advance of the due date.
