Proposal framing
Project Overview
Start here for the proposal-facing argument: why this problem matters now, how the project fits the FIRE-MODEL call, and how the scientific idea is translated into a competitive submission.
What this section is for
This section frames the proposal as a proposal. It keeps the sponsor context, review logic, resubmission strategy, and project-level argument visible so the scientific materials do not drift away from the actual NSF task.
Start with these pages
- Program Context for the problem statement, proposal logic, and why the moment is right.
- Review and Resubmission Strategy for the revision logic and collaborator-facing alignment memo.
- Requirements Checklist for compliance tracking against current working funder materials.
Historical and causal framing
The project's scientific argument is easier to understand when placed in historical sequence. Use the Causal History of Wildfire Modeling to see what modeling traditions came before and why this proposal argues for a geometry-first middle layer.
What else is here
- Funder Materials keep the collected sponsor guidance in view.
- FIRE-MODEL Briefing summarizes the current working understanding of the program.
- Rebid Context, Pitch, and Scientific Program captures the integrated argument joining proposal positioning and scientific architecture.
