- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $386,037 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the formation and eruption behavior of volcanoes in subduction zones. The project aims to investigate the origin of silicic, volatile-rich magmas in young Mexican volcanoes to determine whether they form deep within the Earth's mantle or develop in the crust above the mantle. Researchers will analyze the...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $423,378 project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Illinois State University from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The grant will support collaborative research to investigate subglacial silicic magma systems beneath Vatnajökull glacier in Iceland. Researchers will explore the origin, evolution, age and longevity of magmas in this region to further understand Iceland's glaciological volcanic hazard potential and gain insight into...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $597,142 Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to support collaborative research titled "Volcanism on the Edge - Basaltic Volcanism from Source to Surface across the Colorado Plateau/Basin & Range Transition in SW Utah." The three-year award beginning August 1, 2022 will fund research examining nearly forty Quaternary basaltic volcanic fields...
- Cornell University received a $348,300 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences to investigate volatile evolution and decompression rates of high-intensity basaltic eruptions. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in integrated Earth system sciences, Cornell will conduct field and laboratory research over three years from July 2023 to June 2026. The university will analyze melt inclusions and reconstruct chemical...
- The University of Colorado received a $121,461 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The grant funds basic research to image volcanic transcrustal magmatic systems using teleseismic converted phases. The NSF Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through support of basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Lafayette College $476,890 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the project "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: WHAT LIES BENEATH: AN INVESTIGATION OF SUBGLACIAL SILICIC MAGMA SYSTEMS (VATNAJOKULL, ICELAND)" from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The goal of this project is to explore the origin, evolution, age, and longevity of magmas beneath the Vatnajökull ice cap in Iceland to better understand the country's...
- This $490,303 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project aimed at improving the understanding of lava flow properties and their impact on volcanic eruption hazard assessment. The key products and services to be delivered under this award include: Developing and deploying two new field tools to directly measure the viscosity of natural lava flows, which contain critical elements like bubbles and crystals...
The Space Science Institute will conduct research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: TRANSPORT OF MAGMA IN THE NEAR SURFACE AT SMALL VOLCANOES- EXPERIMENTAL INTRUSION OF BASALTIC MELT INTO UNCONSOLIDATED SEDIMENTS" under a $111,806 National Science Foundation Project Grant in the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The research aims to strengthen understanding of integrated Earth systems through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the Space Science Institute will receive funding from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2024 to experimentally intrude basaltic melt into unconsolidated sediments to better understand magma transport near the surface at small volcanoes. Findings from this research could expand fundamental knowledge of subsurface volcanic processes.
