Opportunity Title:
Biodiversity on a Changing Planet (BoCP)
Funder/Agency:
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Opportunity Number:
24-574
Description:
The program encourages proposals that integrate ecological and evolutionary approaches in the context of the continual gain, loss, and reorganization of biodiversity on a changing planet. To advance a comprehensive understanding of functional biodiversity requires a highly integrative approach – including consideration of spatial and temporal dimensions from the organismal to the ecosystem level, and from recent to deep timescales.
The BoCP program is a cross-directorate and international program led by NSF that invites submission of interdisciplinary proposals addressing grand challenges in biodiversity science within the context of unprecedented environmental change, including climate change. Successful BoCP proposals will test novel hypotheses about functional biodiversity and its connections to shifting biodiversity on a changing planet, with respect to both how environmental change affects taxonomic and functional biodiversity, as well as how the resulting functional biodiversity across lineages feeds back on the environment.
Proposals that seek to improve predictive capability about functional biodiversity across temporal and spatial scales by considering the linkages between past, present, and future biological, climatic, and geological processes are also encouraged. While this focus complements several core programs at NSF, it differs by requiring an integrative approach to understanding functional biodiversity as it relates to shifting biodiversity under changing environmental conditions.

Athens tram toward Monastiraki, crash game on my phone, and a script pinned at the top: two safe exits, one stretch only if the climb behaves. I prewrote cash-out points so I wouldn’t improvise. Mid-ride I tried savaspin bonus code; the cautious flights leveled the line and the third floated over target. Greece is built for compact sessions—decision, outcome, exit before the next stop. I grabbed loukoumades and logged the note by the Ancient Agora. The Ancient Agora clears my head; I’d rather keep coins for souvlaki than donate them to a late tilt. Athens can be loud, so my ritual is balance over buzz and friends over graphs.
