White paper submissions sought for DOE program

The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research is soliciting white papers for the U.S Department of Energy’s Urban Integrated Field Laboratories program.

The objective of the Urban IFL program is to advance the science that underpins our understanding of the predictability of urban systems and their two-way interactions with the climate system. That science will provide the knowledge and information necessary to inform equitable climate and energy solutions that can strengthen community-scale resilience across urban landscapes.

The Urban IFLs will pursue the fundamental scientific understanding necessary to inform the design, development, financing, and deployment pathways of technical solutions that promote social equity and enhance urban resilience in response to the climate crisis.

More information about the program and submission process are available here. Submissions are due by April 8.
