Researchers will combine experimental, data-driven, and physics-based modeling to enable...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) is supporting research to investigate the coupling between superelevation and gradient advantage in river avulsions. The $325,029 award to the Trustees of Indiana University will develop a new unified theory and physics-based modeling framework for understanding the processes that prime rivers for avulsion events, where rivers jump out of their banks and carve a new path. The research will test...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $180,000 from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2027 will support a postdoctoral research project using numerical modeling and synthetic stratigraphy generation to evaluate the impacts of extreme storms on delta channel mobility. The key objectives are to: 1) clarify expected rates and types of delta shoreline evolution over 100 to 10,000 years, informing coastal mitigation plans; 2) determine if...
