The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution received a three-year, $887,327 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant falls under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system.

Through this funding, Woods Hole will conduct the US GEOTRACES GP17-OCE AND GP17-ANT project to study sources and rates of trace element and isotope cycling derived from the radium quartet. The research aims to strengthen knowledge of biogeochemical cycles by tracking the behavior of key radium isotopes in the ocean. Woods Hole will leverage its expertise in ocean sciences to deliver data and insights that further the program's goals of illuminating Earth's physical and biological processes.
