Nordic Centres of Excellence within eScience in Climate and Environmental Research - A Grand Challenge Research Programme within the Nordic eScience Globalisation Initiative
Who can apply?
The NeGI NCoE must have commitment from institutions in at least three Nordic countries, and the ProjectLeader should be an established senior researcher based in one of the NeGI co-funding countries, i.e. Finland, Norway or Sweden. The formal applicant must thus be an institution, organisation or other legal entity based in one of these three countries.

Thematic framework
The NeGI NCoE should perform excellent research on eScience in climate and/ or environmental research with a special focus on Nordic/ Arctic conditions. The research should be focused on the development of new modelling frameworks, computational models and methods, algorithms and software addressing major problems in climate and/ or environmental research with the goal of producing new research opportunities in the topical fields within the project period. The effort should be founded on tight interaction between topical eScience research ("eClimate/ eEnvironment research") and research on more generic eScience tools and methods, including groups from topical research fields and computer science/ scientific computing/ applied mathematics.
