About this award
The Trustees of Dartmouth College was awarded a $305,585 research grant by a civilian federal agency to investigate the evolution of marine-terminating glaciers in the Amundsen Seas region. The project, which runs through December 31, 2024, combines remote sensing observations with ice and ocean models to explore the dynamic response of West Antarctica to ocean variability. This research grant supports Dartmouth College's established expertise in climate science and glacial dynamics, leveraging the institution's capabilities in environmental research and computational modeling. The work will be performed at Dartmouth's location in Hanover, New Hampshire, and no small business set-aside designation applies to this award.
As a premier research university, Dartmouth College regularly receives federal funding across diverse scientific domains including climate science, oceanography, and polar research. The institution's track record of successful grant administration and research execution across federal agencies including the National Science Foundation and NASA demonstrates its capacity to deliver high-quality scientific research. This award represents part of the broader federal investment in understanding climate change impacts on polar regions, a critical area for advancing climate science and predicting sea-level rise implications.
