About this award
The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York received a $603,355 research grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under solicitation 21-CRYO21-0018, titled "Combined: Channelized Ocean Melting Beneath Ice Shelves: Non-Hydrostatic Ice and Estimating Shelf Densities." The award, issued on January 1, 2022, with completion scheduled for December 31, 2026, supports fundamental research on Antarctic ice shelf dynamics and their contribution to sea-level rise. The research focuses on understanding how ocean-driven melting beneath ice shelves affects ice discharge into the ocean and the buttressing mechanisms that regulate Antarctic ice sheet stability—a critical component of NSF's Cryosphere program addressing climate change impacts. The work will be performed at Columbia University's New York campus, with no set-aside designation applied to this competitive award.
This grant reflects Columbia University's substantial research portfolio with the NSF and other federal agencies, where the institution serves as a premier research partner across multiple scientific domains including climate science, materials research, and advanced technologies. As an established federal contractor and grant recipient since 2002, Columbia leverages its world-class faculty and research infrastructure to advance national scientific priorities. The university's cryosphere research complements its broader environmental science initiatives, including previous NSF-funded work on ecosystem dynamics and climate-related impacts on Department of Defense installations, demonstrating Columbia's capacity to execute sophisticated, multi-year research initiatives that address critical national scientific objectives.
Description
ICE shelves in antarctica buttress the ICE discharge from the continent into the oceans, mediating ICE ocean interactions and regulating antarctic contributions to sea level rise. ICE shelf thinning reduces the buttressing of the adjacent grounded IC
