Next Major Funding Opportunity: The California 5th Climate Change Assessment will be issuing RFPs for climate research in March/April. The Office of Planning and Research has published a list of “26 Research Topics” for the 5th Assessment. The RFPs will not track one-to-one with the 26 topics, but will employ “a more coordinated competitive call for various research proposals that demonstrate alignment with at least one of the topics and other criteria that will be specified in the final solicitation.” Stay tuned.
