About this award

Missouri University of Science & Technology, a component of the University of Missouri System, received a $489,593 research grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded on January 20, 2022, for the project "Testing for Active Subduction off Northern Hispaniola with Geodetic Data and Crustal Deformation Modeling" (21-ESI21-0045). The work addresses seismic hazard assessment in the Caribbean region, where Haiti and the Dominican Republic on the island of Hispaniola have experienced significant earthquakes historically. The contract, structured as a grant for research with no set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by June 30, 2026, and will be performed at the university's Rolla, Missouri campus. This research aligns with NSF's Earthquake Science Initiative (ESI) program, which funds projects investigating earthquake mechanics, hazard assessment, and risk reduction in seismically active regions.

Missouri S&T brings substantial expertise in geotechnical research, advanced computational modeling, and scientific research delivery to this project. The university has established itself as a premier federal research institution with extensive funding from NSF, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and other agencies across diverse disciplines including materials science, engineering, and environmental research. As a child entity of the University of Missouri System parent organization, Missouri S&T contributes to the broader system's robust federal research portfolio while maintaining dedicated focus on specialized technical and engineering disciplines essential to addressing complex geological and seismic phenomena.
