    Brief

    This funding scheme supports rapid response to urgent, unforeseen environmental research opportunities that arise from sudden natural events such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, or short-lived ecosystem changes. The program is designed to enable researchers to quickly mobilize and study these transient phenomena before the opportunity is lost. Eligible projects can receive up to £100,000 in funding, covering up to 80% of the full economic cost. Projects must be completed within one year. This is ideal for researchers who can demonstrate scientific merit and the time-sensitive nature of their proposed environmental research.
