This $160,021 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Division of Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078 Polar Programs) to Rutgers, The State University's Research Financial Services Division. The funding will support a collaborative research project called "GREENFJORD-FIBER, Observing the Ice-Ocean Interface with Exceptional Resolution" that aims to better understand how Greenlandic glaciers flowing into the ocean change between winter and summer. The project will...

The National Science Foundation awarded a $2.8 million project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University for the period of October 1, 2022 to December 31, 2026. The project aims to map changes in Greenland resulting from ice thinning and explore emerging landslide and hazard risks. Researchers will integrate local observations from Greenlandic communities with remote sensing data to understand how hazards evolve over time. Advanced...

The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $1.89 million Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York to support the collaborative research project "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: GRATE - INTEGRATING DATA AND MODELING TO QUANTIFY RATES OF GREENLAND ICE SHEET CHANGE, HOLOCENE TO FUTURE" from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2025. This award will fund research under the official federal grant program titled "Polar...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $497,704 to the University of Washington supports a collaborative research study called the "GREENFJORD-FIBER" project. The goal of this project is to use advanced instrumentation, including distributed temperature sensing (DTS) and distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) systems, to better understand how Greenlandic glaciers interact with the ocean, particularly the processes by which icebergs detach...
