The Pennsylvania State University received a two-year, $212,219 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund collaborative research on the behavior of boron during prograde diagenesis and metamorphism of pelagic sediments from the Nankai Trough. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanding fundamental Earth system knowledge, the NSF Geosciences program supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. This particular award will advance understanding of integrated Earth processes by investigating boron cycling during sediment burial and metamorphism offshore Japan.
