The Pennsylvania State University received a $385,650 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences on September 1, 2021 to fund research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) through August 31, 2023. The research project, titled "Mesoarchean Diamond-Bearing Sediments: Implications for Archean Continental Roots and Their Surface Expression," aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences as supported by the Geosciences program. Specifically, the grant will support Penn State University researchers in studying Mesoarchean diamond-bearing sediments to learn more about Archean continental crust and how its deep roots were expressed at the Earth's surface during this early period. The total funding amount of $385,650 will support this research effort over the two-year award period concluding on August 31, 2023.
