Management; 4) Protection and Restoration of Resources; 5) Equatorial Oceanography; 6) Climate Research and Impacts; 7) Tropical Meteorology; and 8) Tsunamis and Other Long-period Ocean Waves.

The CI will be established at a research institution not only having outstanding graduate degree programs in NOAA-related sciences, but also located within a commuting distance of NOAA facilities on the Island of Oahu, HI allowing direct interactions with CI and NOAA scientists on a regular basis.

If the CI is comprised of multiple member institutions, only the lead institution applying for the award and where the CI will be established must satisfy the commuting distance requirement.

This announcement provides requirements for the CI and includes details for the technical program, evaluation criteria and competitive selection procedures.

Applicants should review the CI Interim Handbook prior to preparing a proposal for this announcement (available at www.nrc.noaa.gov/ci).
