Atmospheric Chemistry Program is a grant from NSF Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences that funds research on atmospheric gases and aerosols. Supported topics include sources and sinks of atmospheric species, chemical transformations, photochemistry, heterogeneous and aqueous-phase reactions, aerosol formation and optical properties, and development of improved measurement methods for trace species. The program funds models, observations, and laboratory experiments. Universities, nonprofits, state and local governments, and individual researchers are eligible to apply. NSF encourages proposals from principal investigators across a wide variety of institutions and backgrounds. Funding amounts vary depending on scope of research.
NSF 26-516 folds Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, Earth Sciences and Ocean Sciences into a single GEO Core solicitation: $110 million, 200 to 350 awards, proposals accepted anytime. Geosciences piloted no-deadline review nine years ago and knows what it does to submission volume. Here is the per-award math, the ship-time and permitting traps, and the two-year data-archive clock that now governs every award.
Read articleNSF's Arctic Research Opportunities solicitation funds roughly 75 awards a year — up to $50 million — across six program areas from natural sciences to social sciences to the Arctic Observing Network. The July 15, 2026 target date is not a hard deadline, and understanding that distinction is the first strategic decision an Arctic researcher makes. Here is how the six doors differ and how to choose the right one.
