The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $990,272 project grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in New York City to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: GRATE - INTEGRATING DATA AND MODELING TO QUANTIFY RATES OF GREENLAND ICE SHEET CHANGE, HOLOCENE TO FUTURE." The period of performance for this research is from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2025.

The research aims to strengthen understanding of the Greenland Ice Sheet and its response to climate change over time through integrating geological, glaciological and climate modeling datasets. This work aligns with the goals of the NSF Polar Programs' CFDA #47.078 to encourage basic research conducted in or about the polar regions to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding. Key products will include analyses quantifying historic and projected future rates of change in the Greenland Ice Sheet mass based on merging paleoclimate proxy records with numerical ice sheet models.
