REQUEST FOR STATEMENTS OF INTEREST
NUMBER W912HZ-19-SOI-0015
PROJECT TO BE INITIATED IN 2019
Project Title: USCRP Research Topic 12: Quantitative Model for Optimizing Coastal Community Systems Performance
Responses to this Request for Statements of Interest will be used to identify potential investigators for studies to be sponsored by the U.S. Army of Engineer (USACE) Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL). The intent of this request is to seek researchers interested in developing a quantitative systems model that incorporates community perspectives, data, and future environmental and coastal infrastructure conditions so that potential future alternatives can be tested and optimized for coastal communities. The systems model developed from this research should facilitate community input to and examination of alternatives, given anticipated changes in community values and priorities, physical infrastructure, and coastal forcing over years to multiple decades. Estimated award amounts for individual proposals of $50,000 to $500,000 may be accepted. Multiple awards may be funded. Possibly no awards will be made if the submitted proposals do not meet the objectives outlined in this RSOI.
