 Dear Deans,

The Institute of the Environment, Water Sustainability Program, and
Renewable Energy Network are offering a large number of grants to faculty
and graduate students this semester for research, equipment, travel,
speakers, and workshops.  Many of these opportunities are associated with
the renewal of TRIF funds for a proposal we wrote with the VPR to support UA
work at the intersections of  water, environment and energy and solutions
(WEES).  We want to invest the funds to support excellent research at UA and
support faculty and departments.  That is why we have developed this special
email alert for department heads and deans  with environmental, energy and
water faculty so that you are aware of these opportunities.  

We have established an advisory committee for WEES of leading UA researchers
and all competitions are reviewed by peer/faculty selection committees.
There are some limits on how we can spend the funds and we are expected to
generate return on investment for the university overall.  The attached file
provides details on eligibility, funding amounts, and deadlines. Of
particular note are mid-February deadlines for grants for equipment,
capacity building workshops, and (for grad students) fellowships and travel.
Note that faculty can request match for proposals. Please help us spread the
word and encourage proposals. If you have any questions or concerns please
contact Betsy Woodhouse, Jackie Moxley or Ardeth Barnhart at the emails
below, or feel free to contact myself or Sharon Megdal who co-direct the
WEES program (Raina Maier will be standing in while Sharon is on sabbatical
for some of the term). We would be happy to meet with you to discuss the
TRIF/WEES initiative - for example at a College Heads and Directors meeting.

We also include some of the opportunities that are funded by other funds,
such as the Institute for Environment program of faculty exploratory grants
and the Udall fellowships.

If you wish to have input into the selection of awardees, please let us know
who in your college is willing to help evaluate proposals--we are
desperately in need of  reviewers. We can work around conflicts of interest.
Send names to Betsy Woodhouse at woodhou1 at email.arizona.edu, Jackie Moxley
at jmoxley at cals.arizona.edu, or Ardeth Barnhart at ardethb at email.arizona.edu

Also let us know if there is a dean, dept head or college/dept admin we
should add to this list. We decided to send individual email rather than use
a list serve in the hope it would get your attention. The list of heads that
received this email is below.

Thank You

Diana Liverman
Co-Director, Institute of the Environment
Sharon Megdal, Director, Water Resources Research Center
