• March 4, 2016: When the new version of Appendix A.6 was posted this morning it included an old version of text that incorrectly advertised the proposal due date. This has been corrected. As advertised in several other places, the due date remains March 18, 2016. Apologies for any confusion.
• March 4, 2016. To address questions regarding the last paragraph in Section 2.1 ("A proposed field campaign scoping study must…") vs. the second paragraph in Section 2.1.1 ("Proposals should identify the scientific questions…") we have added the following text to section 2.1.1 of A.6 Biodiversity: "Please note that a funded scoping study will develop the final key questions and the study design to implement them. The proposal should identify initial questions/topics to be pursued by the scoping study. These questions/topics should be developed, fleshed out, and refined by the scoping study." New text is in bold. The due date has not changed, proposals are due March 18, 2016.
