Closing date for proposals: 16:00 on 24 August 2017
Proposals are invited for submission to a new jointly funded activity between funding agencies in the UK and Japan. Proposals will deliver ‘proof of concept’ projects that will underpin exploration and testing of new innovative and disruptive approaches that could, with further development, provide a step change in the technology available to make autonomous biogeochemical and biological observations in the marine and aquatic environment.
This programmes aims to build on recent research investments in novel marine technologies in the UK and Japan and deliver proof of concept projects for high-risk high-reward innovative sensing technologies.
It is expected that this announcement will lead to the funding of three projects, with a maximum cost of £300,000 per project.
