The National Institute for Global Environmental Change (NIGEC) will be announcing the annual Request for Proposals on the World Wide Web for FY 1996-97.
NIGEC is attempting to answer top-down questions by collection of data and process-oriented studies at the regional level, which will be scaled up to the continental level.
To this end, cross-collaboration and integration between different institutions/investigators/programs within a region and between regions is encouraged.
The RFP and information on the six regions within NEGEC is available at URL http://nigec.ucdavis.edu/.
Alternatively, contact Linda Ono, 916/752-7300, westgec@ucdavis.edu.
