ROSES-14 Amendment 14 releases the final text for A.7, Carbon Monitoring System Continuing Prototype Product Development, Research, and Scoping

NASA requests proposals for investigations to advance the development of a carbon monitoring system. Emphasis is to be directed towards continued development of the established Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) pilot studies, acquisition, field sampling, quantification, and development of prototype Monitoring Reporting and Verification system capabilities which can provide transparent data products achieving levels of precision and accuracy required by current carbon trading protocols. NASA is also looking for advancements from past CMS activities that will substantially contribute to the above activity. Successful applicants will become members of the NASA CMS Science Team.

Notices of Intent are requested by May 19, 2014; proposals are due June 17, 2014, 60 days after the release of this Amendment. The time between the release of this text and the due date for proposals is 60 days because of congressional direction and the timing of the FY 2014 budget.

On or about April 18, 2014, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2014" (NNH14ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ and will appear on the RSS feed at: http://science1.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2014/
