The Geosciences Open Science Ecosystem (GEO OSE) program seeks to realize the benefits of open science practices toward advancing research and education in the geosciences. To achieve this vision, the GEO OSE program encourages efforts to foster adoption of open scientific practices across geoscience domains. The program supports development of innovative open science approaches that advance geosciences research and education through leveraging expanding information resources and computing capabilities. The program also supports initiatives to strengthen the capacity of current and future geoscientists to access, utilize, and collaborate within the growing ecosystem of open science resources. GEO OSE projects may pursue a variety of activities to advance open science practices within the geosciences. This includes community/cohort building around defining a shared vision for open science and adopting open science practices within and across geoscience domains. It also includes development and implementation of open science approaches that accelerate geoscience research discovery via seamless workflows connecting data, software, physical collections, and computing. In addition, GEO OSE supports educational activities that instill open science practices and broaden adoption of cyberinfrastructure resources to reduce barriers to geoscience research and education.

NSF's TechAccess: AI-Ready America commits up to $224 million to build one AI-readiness coordination hub in every state, DC, and U.S. territory. Round 1 closed July 16, 2026 — but Rounds 2 and 3 are still open, and most states are still up for grabs. Here is how the hub structure works, who is eligible, why cost sharing is banned, and how to position an institution to own its state's hub.
Read articleNSF just put $83 million into six national-scale data systems through its Integrated Data Systems and Services program — the plumbing that makes AI-for-science actually work. Here is who won, how the three-category structure (national-scale, transition, planning) really functions, why the Category III planning grant is the on-ramp most teams should be aiming at, and how to build readiness before the next fourth-Tuesday-in-July deadline.
Read articleNSF's new AI Datasets solicitation puts up to $100 million behind a specific bet: that the bottleneck in AI-for-science is not models but data. Here is how the three award tiers work — Flagship up to $5M, Impact up to $2M, Planning up to $200K — who is eligible, why voluntary cost sharing is banned, and how to build a proposal that survives review before the November 4, 2026 deadline.
