Fall 2016: Arctic Domain Awareness Center releases Arctic IoNS report, RFP
by Michelle Saport |
The Arctic Domain Awareness Center (ADAC) announces a request for proposals, accepting
applications through Friday, Oct. 14, 2016.
This RFP responds to an Arctic "Incidents of National Significance" (Arctic IoNS) workshop hosted by ADAC in Anchorage June 21-22. The purpose of the workshop was to present current research and determine technology shortfalls associated with U.S. and Canada Coast Guard-discerned areas of concern, in responding to a disabled cruise ship in Arctic waters. (Read about the workshop: ADAC explores what 'opening the Arctic' really means.)
This RFP call is being issued to a wide audience and solicits proposals that will focus on interdisciplinary research, education and technology development in the areas of the Arctic domain. ADAC seeks to address a number of research questions related to the themes of domain awareness, maritime technology research, product transition and education outreach that might interest the public and relevant international, federal, state and local agencies.
Interested applicants must review the IoNS Rapporteurs Report before responding to this RFP. The IoNS report and full details of the RFP are posted to adac.uaa.alaska.edu. Applications are due by Friday, Oct. 14, 2016.
