The NFRP Exploration - Hypothesis Development Award supports the initial exploration of innovative, high-risk, high-gain, and potentially groundbreaking concepts in NF research. Studies supported by this award mechanism are expected to lay the groundwork for future avenues of scientific investigation. The proposed research project should include a well-formulated, testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale and study design. The presentation of preliminary and/or published data is not required.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, and civil society groups to implement programs that strengthen U.S.-Honduras relations and promote shared values such as democracy and economic prosperity.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations and institutions working to combat the online recruitment of youth by terrorist groups, focusing on reducing terrorist content and empowering communities to recognize and counter such threats.

The specific research question to be addressed by this agreement is How do bed material loads, hydraulic roughness, and bedform regimes change based on hydraulic parameters, such as temperature, shear stress, stream power, slope, water velocity, etc. To answer this complex research question, a bed material load sediment transport capacity function will be derived using the best available data, including USGS suspended sediment concentration/load and the Missouri River 2014 sediment data collection effort. A bedform/roughness predictor algorithm will also be developed for the Missouri River. The effectiveness of these algorithms at predicting observed data must be demonstrated in a journal article to be coauthored by USACE. The methodology and results must also be discussed in the journal article. Two in-person meetings will be held (kickoff and final presentation) between USACE and the award recipient, as well as monthly virtual meetings.
