Methane Network
Announcement of Opportunity
Closing date: 16:00 on 10 March 2009
The Natural Environment Research Council invites proposals to establish a three-year Methane Network.
There is significant research activity within the UK concerning methane hydrates and the contemporary methane cycle. NERC wishes to build on this activity by creating an opportunity - a three year Methane Network - to increase collaboration between research groups and also with relevant Living With Environmental Change (LWEC) and industry partners. The network will improve the co-ordination and collaboration of methane research activities, seek to identify the key uncertainties in our knowledge to facilitate the development of innovative scientific outputs, and provide added value to existing investments. A total of £300k FEC is available.
The network would be expected to commence in Summer 2009.
Please see the Announcement of Opportunity document below for full details of the call.
