- This federal Project Grant award, valued at $108,757, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to San Diego State University Foundation. The award, effective August 15, 2024 through July 31, 2026, supports a collaborative research project that investigates changes in prehistoric human foraging, mobility patterns, and population dynamics in response to environmental change during the later Pleistocene. The research...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), will support collaborative archaeological research to investigate the relationship between agriculture, environmental change, and social inequality over time. The $118,277 grant awarded to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) will enable a transdisciplinary team to analyze agricultural practices, food webs, and land use...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $335,194 supports an archaeological investigation of recently discovered monumental hydraulic features at an important archaeological site. The project aims to establish when these features were constructed, whether they were contemporaneous with other monumental constructions, and the functions they served, such as ritual and aquaculture. The study will involve excavations, soil...
- Federal Project Grant Award Summary Utah State University received a $162,477 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) effective June 1, 2025, through July 31, 2027. This award supports an interdisciplinary research initiative investigating long-term human fire management and environmental change within Pacific Northwest high-elevation social-ecological systems. The project...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $191,700 to Arizona State University (ASU) to investigate changes in prehistoric human foraging, mobility patterns, and population dynamics in response to environmental change during the later Pleistocene. The research aims to provide broader context to occupations in a coastal region by comparing new archaeological data analyses to detailed models of the...
The National Science Foundation SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to conduct an archaeological investigation from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2023. The grant was awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in the social sciences. The products and services provided through this award include an archaeological investigation of the climatological, political, and demographic drivers of conflict. To be conducted in Emigration Canyon, Utah, this research aims to contribute scientific insights into how environmental, social, and population factors influence conflict, in line with the goals of the SBE Sciences program to strengthen understanding of human behaviors and institutions.
