Funding Opportunity Description: NOAA’s National Weather Service, Office of the Director of the Office of International Affairs is soliciting proposals for Capacity Development for Weather,Water, and Climate Forecasting and Disaster Risk Reduction (CDDRR). The CDDRR program’s goal is to improve the performance of all operational meteorological hydrological, and disaster and emergency management services worldwide. Improving agencies’ performance for enhanced decision support services is done through collaboration between operational hydrologists and meteorologists, scientists, and other staff with expertise across a wide range of environmental, economic, and social and behavioral sciences. These activities engage operational hydrologists, meteorologists, and researchers in development and implementation of innovative programs which are pivotal to the improvement of weather and climate early warning services in developing countries.
