Biological Influence on Ocean Carbon: Novel Modelling Approaches
UKRI / NERC with NASA
A UK-US research funding opportunity to develop novel modelling approaches that better represent biological processes influencing ocean carbon storage and improve understanding of climate-related carbon uptake and export.
Deadline
Jul 14, 2026Theme
Ocean carbon storage, climate research and modellingWhy it matters
This is a specialized research call, but it is relevant for climate researchers, modelling teams, ocean science groups, AI-for-science collaborators and institutions connected to UK or US research partners. It also gives the network a serious climate-science benchmark for international research collaboration.
Who should look at it
UK project leads and UK researchers must be based at UKRI-eligible UK research organisations. US researchers must be affiliated with a US institution at application submission. A mandatory notification of intent was required before the full application.
Application details
Total fund is GBP 1,000,000. UK component full economic cost can be up to GBP 312,500, with NERC funding 80% of FEC.
July 14, 2026, 4:00 p.m. UK time.
NERC and NASA support UK-US projects connected to BIO-Carbon and NASA EXPORTS research objectives.
UK lead must be at an eligible UKRI research organisation; US researchers must be affiliated with a US institution. Full applications require prior notification of intent.
