The Trustees of Tufts College, doing business as Tufts University, received a $103,499 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities on September 1, 2021 to complete the project by August 31, 2024. The award supports the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: EARTHCUBE DATA CAPABILITIES: VOLCANOLOGY HUB FOR INTERDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATION, TOOLS AND RESOURCES (VICTOR)" project under the Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050).

The goal of the project is to create an open data and collaboration hub focused on volcanology. Specifically, Tufts University will develop tools and resources to enable researchers from different disciplines to share and analyze volcano-related data through EarthCube, a data infrastructure platform for the geosciences. This aligns with the objectives of the Geosciences program to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research support.
