As a major public research university, USF leverages its...
- This $366,015 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) will fund research to improve understanding of volcanic processes on Mars. The research aims to validate terrestrial lava flow propagation models for Martian applications, determine eruption conditions that produced Martian lava flows, and assess variations in flow rheology and crystal content. The work leverages data from the recent 2012-2013 Tolbachik...
- This is a $276,284.34 grant awarded by NASA to the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, a science and engineering university, to advance the numerical modeling methods used to quantify magma migration within the non-uniform rheological structure and stress field of an active volcano. The project aims to improve the interpretation of InSAR data for active volcanoes by developing tools to estimate parameters and uncertainties that describe the shape of the magma chamber, the history of...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $699,998.00 grant to the University of South Florida (USF) for research related to the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission and the GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO) mission. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will fund research that provides insights into important aspects of ocean circulation using the long record of ocean bottom pressure data from these missions. USF, a metropolitan research...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $398,990.91 grant for research to the University of South Florida (USF) on May 1, 2018. The grant is to investigate key aspects of phosphorus cosmochemistry, including the presence of volatile forms of phosphorus, oxidation reactions between phosphorus minerals and silicates/oxides, and an analysis of why specific phosphate minerals are more common in meteorites than on planetary bodies. This research aims to better constrain the...
- This is a $178,017.94 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Florida (USF) for a research project titled "The Dual-Frequency Radar Satellite NASA ISRO Will Provide Simultaneously and for the First Time a Wide Wavelength Spectrum Which Will Be Critical to Discriminate Surface Roughness Based on Different Backscattering Characteristics." The award, which has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2023, will allow...
This is a training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Florida (USF) in the amount of $88,799.84. The purpose of the grant is to investigate the relationships between the flow mobility metrics of recent volcanic mass flow events, such as pyroclastic density currents and lahars, and the topographic parameters of five selected active volcanoes. The research will leverage high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) from various remote sensing tools and products to better understand the processes associated with volcanic mass flows and improve their mitigation and hazard assessment. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a major public research university, USF frequently receives federal contracts and grants to support its diverse research and educational initiatives across disciplines like health sciences, engineering, marine science, and education.
