Description
The Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) supports the modeling and data assimilation needs of NASA's
Earth science mission, to characterize, understand, and predict how the Earth as a system is changing on both
weather and climate time scales. The GMAO develops the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) model and
data assimilation system, including comprehensive atmosphere, ocean, ice, and land surface components, and
including atmospheric trace gases and aerosols and ocean biogeochemistry. Activities include developing an
Integrated Earth System Analysis (IESA) capability, which links simultaneous analyses of Earth system components
and captures the necessary interactions among them; development and generation of atmospheric, ocean, and land
reanalyses; conducting experimental weather and climate prediction to decadal time scales; conducting carbon and
water cycle research using the GEOS model and assimilation systems; and developing and using the GEOS systems
for observing system science studies. Proposals are invited for investigations using GMAO reanalyses, weather and
climate predictions, or for simulations and investigations that contribute to GEOS system development and
evaluation. Investigations related to improving the use of satellite observations in GMAO systems are particularly
encouraged.
