As the temperature of frozen soils and substrates warms up, the amount of unfrozen water increases,” said Nathan Basiliko, professor and Canada Research Chair (Tier 2 Environmental Microbiology) at the Vale Living With Lakes Centre. Universities can submit proposals requesting up to $800,000 from the CFI, with a maximum total eligible cost of $2 million. The Adaptation Fund Board has also made available three new funding windows for accredited National Implementing Entities (NIEs) to access small grants for innovation, learning and project scale-up. It was established under the Kyoto Protocol of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, and since 2010 has committed funds for localized climate adaptation and resilience activities. It will also yield valuable information about how these physical changes to frozen ground may affect physical infrastructure, including difficult-to-manage industrial (mine, forestry) wastes in colder climates. Nathan Basiliko, Pascal Roy-Léveillée, and Naida Mykytczuk were awarded a share of this year’s John R. Evans Leaders Fund by the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI).
Proposals are accepted three times a year: twice before the biannual Adaptation Fund Board meetings and once during an intersessional review cycle. Kindly e-mail your proposal submissions to the Adaptation Fund Board secretariat: afbsec@adaptation-fund.org.
To apply for project and programme funding, countries must submit proposals through an accredited institution.
After accreditation, the entity may submit project proposals aligned with national priorities for consideration by the Adaptation Fund Board.

One of the team’s major goals is to categorize frozen soils and substrates as they warm. “Even at below-zero temperatures, a fraction of unfrozen water supports biological activity responsible for movement of carbon and pollutants. The Adaptation Fund (AF) was established to finance concrete adaptation projects and programmes in developing countries that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. The amount of below-zero-Celsius liquid water also has important implications for ground stability and physical infrastructure in permafrost environments.”.
