The Leland Stanford Junior University received a $422,120 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to develop computational models of volcanic eruptions. The period of performance for this research is from June 15, 2023 through May 31, 2026. Under this award, Stanford will develop computer simulations to model magma flow through volcanic conduits, fragmentation processes, and the generation of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences Project Grant award for $180,000 from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2026 will support research to develop a new "Eruption Stability Diagram" classification system for volcanic eruptions. The objective is to better understand and predict the evolution of volcanic hazards, such as ash clouds and pyroclastic density currents, by accounting for the effects of varying eruption rates and micrometer-scale processes. The research...
The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $470,000 Project Grant to Stanford University to support research entitled "Insights into Episodic Caldera Collapse and Magmatic Systems from the 2018 Eruption of Kilauea Volcano." The grant period runs from May 15, 2021 through April 30, 2024. The funding will support basic research conducted under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system...

The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences through basic research. This particular grant will further...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to compare the geochemical and temporal links between volcanism and plutonism at a single arc magmatic system in Washington State. The $182,791 award to The Leland Stanford Junior University will fund a 3-year project to reconstruct the record of volcanic eruptions and subvolcanic intrusive activity by analyzing the geochemistry, geochronology, and petrology of igneous rocks in the...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $484,930 Project Grant to Columbia University to develop a novel multi-camera system for continuous, real-time monitoring of active volcanoes. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), this two-year project aims to create an integrated system that can autonomously observe volcanoes across visible, thermal, and ultraviolet wavelengths to extract critical monitoring data. The system will automatically analyze the video...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $296,096 to Brown University provides funding to investigate the crust and uppermost mantle beneath active volcanoes using new seismic analysis techniques. The 2-year project, starting on Sep 1, 2024, aims to advance understanding of how magma storage and migration affect the eruptibility of volcanoes in regions like Yellowstone, the Cascades Arc, and the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex. Key...
