- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Pomona College a $114,019 Project Grant under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on halogen behavior in the pluton-to-volcanic arc system from August 15, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The research will measure halogen concentrations in intrusive plutonic rocks and extrusive volcanic rocks from the same ancient arc system now exposed in the Sierra Nevada, California. This will help...
- This $198,248 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate the magmatic evolution and timing of the Independence Dike Swarm in eastern California. The principal objectives are to: 1) characterize the chemical composition and age of dikes across the swarm, including segments that are only tentatively correlated, to better understand the magmatic processes and emplacement history; 2) develop a dating...
- Amherst College received a $105,974 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences on August 1, 2021 to support research activities through July 31, 2024. The grant was awarded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system. Specifically, the funding will support collaborative research examining feedbacks between thermal structure, petrologic transformation, and rheologic...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $385,643 project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College to investigate magma diversification and mobilization processes in the lower continental crust. The 3-year research project will link field mapping, microstructural analysis, geochemistry, and geochronology to test competing models for how magmas form and are extracted from the deep roots of continental arcs. The...
- This three-year, $337,782 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at California State University Fullerton and Princeton University to determine the time and length scales of magma bodies in magmatic arcs. The grant recipients will study potassium feldspar phenocrysts and megacrysts up to 12 cm long containing mineral inclusions from the Tuolumne Intrusive Complex in Yosemite National Park. Electron microprobe, laser...
- The Pennsylvania State University received a two-year, $212,219 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund collaborative research on the behavior of boron during prograde diagenesis and metamorphism of pelagic sediments from the Nankai Trough. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanding fundamental Earth system knowledge, the NSF Geosciences program supports basic research in...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program provides $1,704,632.00 to Pomona College to conduct a comprehensive national survey on research development and administration (RD/RA) functions at four-year colleges and universities. The project aims to sharpen understanding of the unique challenges and support needs of research-intensive but less-established institutions, including emerging and primarily undergraduate...
- The National Science Foundation awarded the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College a three-year, $288,924 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research resolving conflicting tectonic models for the Laramide orogeny and flat-slab subduction in southern California. The University will perform three field seasons of data collection in the San Gabriel Mountains, along with geochronology, geochemistry, and microstructural laboratory...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $172,594 Project Grant to Oregon State University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for a 3-year collaborative undergraduate research project. The grant will fund an investigation into the tectonic and landscape evolution of the Klamath Mountains region of the Pacific Northwest, which was shaped by the accretion of the Siletzia oceanic plateau onto the North American plate millions of years ago. The principal...
- This $303,170 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research on magma diversification and mobilization processes in the lower continental crust. The primary awardee, The University Corporation, a non-profit auxiliary organization affiliated with California State University, Northridge, will work with researchers in New Zealand to link field data, geochemistry, and geochronology to investigate whether...
