SERDP Special Solicitation
Proposals Due January 5, 2012
On
September 20, 2011, the Strategic Environmental Research and
Development Program (SERDP) released a new solicitation for the Defense
Coastal/Estuarine Research Program (DCERP).
SERDP
requests proposals to perform fundamental ecological research on
estuarine, coastal, and associated terrestrial ecosystems that are
necessary to sustain military readiness. The desired outcome of the
requested research is to: (1) understand the effects of military
activities and infrastructure on these ecosystems and (2) support their
sustainable and adaptive management.
The
DCERP is an existing SERDP program that involves the execution of
ecological research within the context of military land and other
resource use. DCERP has been executed since late 2006 at Marine Corp
Base (MCB) Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. This call for research
proposals is intended to fund a new DCERP effort for a period of five
years and also provide new thematic directions to guide the research
effort.
Researchers
from Federal organizations, universities, and the private sector can
apply for SERDP funding. For complete details about this opportunity,

UPCOMING: SERDP and ESTCP Funding Opportunities for FY 2013

and the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP)
will soon announce their annual solicitations for FY 2013 funding.
