The NOAA Weather Program Office (WPO) is currently accepting proposals for FY25 Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFO). These NOFOs will fund six competitions, totaling up to $12.8 million per year, to support the following program objectives and priorities: 1) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES), 2) Testbeds, 3) Observations, 4) Subseasonal to Seasonal (S2S) forecasting, 5) Air Quality Research and Forecasting (AQRF), and 6) VORTEX-USA. Each competition is published on grants.gov.

Testbeds
VORTEX USA
Subseasonal to Seasonal
Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES)

Projects should focus on advancing science and technology from research innovations to transitionable outputs or prototype products that NOAA or external partners could further develop into practical applications and operations. In alignment with the Weather Forecasting and Innovation Act of 2017 (Public Law 115-25), this funding opportunity will allow NOAA to support new weather, water, and earth system observing and forecasting applications, including improved analysis techniques, better statistical or dynamic forecast models and techniques, and communication of that information to better inform the public.
