NCPOR is launching a national call for research proposals from universities and research institutions to promote collaborative research on Geoscientific Studies of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of India.

National Centre for Polar and Ocean Research (NCPOR) serve as the nodal agency for implementing the national program on “Geoscientific Studies of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of India”, in collaboration with partner institutions. Through several scientific expeditions, the programme has generated extensive marine geoscientific data, including the systematic collection and archiving of sediment samples from deep-water regions (>500 m water depth) of the Indian EEZ.

To further promote collaborative research and enhance the scientific value of these archived resources, NCPOR is launching a national call for research proposals from universities and research institutions. This initiative aims to foster innovative research, expand collaborative networks, and define future research directions using the EEZ sediment core samples.

The last date for submitting the proposal has been extended to 25 November 2025
