Washington Water Research Center Research Seed Grant
Note: This is not a limited submission and is being announced as a courtesy only.
There is a request for proposals for a seed grant program funded through the federal Water Resources Research Act Program and managed by the State of Washington Water Research Center.
Proposals on any water-related topic of relevance to Washington State and the region will be considered, but proposals addressing the following priorities will be given preference:
- Climate change effects on water supply, demand, and quality.
- Analysis of policy and law relating to water resource management.
- Fate and transport of nutrients and emerging contaminants in the environment.
- Remote sensing and/or AI for water systems and management.
- Equity and justice in water resource access and management.
- Surface-groundwater interactions and conjunctive use management.
This is a great opportunity for early-career faculty to build partnerships with senior faculty, initiate new multidisciplinary collaboration, and support thesis and dissertation research.
