About this award
Massachusetts Institute of Technology received a $150,000 research grant awarded December 1, 2024, by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center to conduct research on "Characterizing the Behavior and Carbon Cycle Implications of Southeast Asian Peat Fires." The work will be performed at MIT's Cambridge, Massachusetts campus with an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2027. This grant is not restricted to any specific business set-aside category and represents a straightforward research funding mechanism for scientific inquiry.
The project focuses on understanding the environmental and climatic implications of peat fires in Southeast Asia, an important area of study given the carbon cycle's role in climate change and the region's significant peatland resources. MIT's substantial research infrastructure and expertise in earth sciences, climate systems, and environmental analysis position the institution to conduct rigorous investigation into fire behavior and associated carbon emissions. As a leading federal research institution with extensive experience across multiple scientific domains, MIT regularly receives grant awards from federal agencies to support fundamental and applied research that addresses national and global scientific priorities.
