ICDP International Continental Scientific Drilling Program ICDP Funding, 1. Leg: Grants to cover parts of the operatioal costs $$$$$$ - €€€€€€
Funding Strategies of ICDP: Due to limited resources in ICDP, funds are granted for project development and drilling-related expen-ses, but not for science support. • Foster International Cooperation and Project Development through Workshops (seed money to lift projects) • Form partnerships with other scientific, private, governmental or industry groups for project funding • Direct money to drilling and drill site operations, technical on-site support, facilitiy and data management support through OSG ICDP Management & Operational Support
Objectives • To obtain secure funding for an effective planning, implementation and execution of a viable strategic drilling program • to meet scientific objectives of socio-economic significance • to identify sites for international cooperation in scientific drilling and thus • to provide a cost effective means of answering key scientific questions in the ICDP´s priority fields • to ensure that appropriate pre-site surveys are carried out to provide a core of technical support for drilling projects • to facilitate their effective planning and operation ICDP Management & Operational Support
Essential Elements of ICDP: • ICDP is a Science-driven Program featuring: • Unsolicitaed Proposals • Peer Reviews by independant Science Advisory Group • Priorities are based on: • Scientific Merit - Technical Feasibility - Budget Realities - Relevance to Societal Issues - Degree of International Coordination - Educational Potential • Funds and Operational Support of scientific teams to provide flexible, low-cost drilling capabilities • GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (Executive Agency) Management and Finances - Operational Support Group ICDP Management & Operational Support
