This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $119,293 to James Madison University for collaborative research on quantitative paleoclimatology of the East African monsoon from August 15, 2021 to July 31, 2024. The grant supports basic research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through expanded knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the university will conduct collaborative research to develop quantitative reconstructions of East African monsoon variability over the past two millennia using paleoclimate proxy records, advancing fundamental knowledge of this key regional climate system. Findings will enhance understanding of natural and anthropogenic factors influencing monsoon changes.
