Description
The Chemical Oceanography Program supports research into the chemistry of the oceans and the role of the oceans in global geochemical cycles. Areas of interest include chemical composition, speciation, and transformation; chemical exchanges between the oceans and other components of the Earth system; internal cycling in oceans, seas, and estuaries; and the use of measured chemical distributions as indicators of physical, biological, and geological processes. The program provides grants to support these research activities with funding amounts ranging from $200,000 to $2,000,000 per award. The total funding amount available is $26,000,000 with an expected 20 awards.
