The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $178,445 Project Grant to The Washington University to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: REDOX RATIOS IN AMPHIBOLES AS PROXIES FOR VOLATILE BUDGETS IN IGNEOUS SYSTEMS" from June 15, 2021 through May 31, 2024. This grant will fund basic research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the grantee will conduct collaborative research analyzing redox ratios in amphibole minerals as proxies for volatile element budgets in igneous rock systems. This work will provide insights into volatile cycling processes and budgets important to Earth's evolution. The place of performance is The Washington University in University City, Missouri.
