- This $178,059 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will enable the University of Southern California to develop a machine learning-based table extraction tool to help streamline paleoclimate data analysis. The goal is to create an AI-powered Python toolbox that can automatically identify and extract tabular paleoclimate data from unstructured files, reducing the time scientists spend wrangling and annotating these datasets before...
- This $431,120 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Southern California. The grant, titled "CAIG: PALEOPAL: An AI Research Assistant for Paleoclimatology", will develop an artificial intelligence system called PALEOPAL to assist researchers in accessing and analyzing datasets, selecting appropriate analytical techniques, and interpreting results related to the study of past climate change....
- This Project Grant award, valued at $269,066, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Southern California (USC) Department of Contracts and Grants. The project aims to develop and implement a new 4D variational framework for multiscale proxy assimilation, leveraging recent data syntheses of paleoclimate proxy observations. The goal is to connect seasonal to millennial timescales and ocean to atmosphere in climate modeling and...
- This three-year, $520,660 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to constrain cloud and convective parameterizations in climate models using paleoclimate data assimilation. Specifically, the awardee, the University of Arizona, will conduct fully coupled, isotope-enabled climate simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, and pre-industrial periods using an ensemble of cloud and convective parameter sets. Paleoclimate...
- This three-year, $511,918 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds research to develop a new framework for advancing climate model representations of cloud and convective processes. The grantee, Columbia University, will conduct fully-coupled, isotope-enabled climate simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, and Pre-Industrial periods using an ensemble of cloud and convective parameter sets. Paleoclimate data assimilation will...
- The University of Southern California will receive $240,634 from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The research aims to illuminate fundamental climate processes that influenced terrestrial ecology in western Pangea during Earth's previous icehouse period between 304-280 million years ago. Researchers will identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary in...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded a $177,674 Project Grant to the Smithsonian Institution under the Geosciences program (CFDA# 47.050) to enhance the discoverability and use of paleontological specimen data. The 2-year project aims to: (1) connect existing open science cyberinfrastructure resources to better integrate data from fossil and biological collections; (2) democratize access to digitized paleontological data for research; and (3) expand...
- This $372,195 federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports a collaborative research project to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity using a high-resolution fossil record and novel AI workflows. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award, which began on November 1, 2024, include: Generating 3D datasets from micro-CT scans of mammalian fossils to characterize functional...
- This $409,233 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to connect seasonal to millennial timescales through a new 4D variational framework for assimilating paleoclimate proxy data. The key products and services to be delivered include: Developing and implementing a new data assimilation approach to integrate high-resolution (monthly to decadal) paleoclimate proxies, such as coral records and sediment...
- This $198,435 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project titled "P4CLIMATE--A Paleo Perspective on the Links Between Climate and Food Security." The project will quantitatively assess shifts in maize production in North America over the past 1,200 years by merging paleoclimate, weather generation, and crop modeling data. This research aims to understand the impacts of prolonged droughts,...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $877,305 to the University of Southern California from September 2021 through August 2024 to develop PaleoCube capabilities. PaleoCube will enable cloud-based access to paleoclimatology data and tools. The funding will support developing cloud-based infrastructure and services for storing, analyzing, and visualizing paleoclimate data. Northern Arizona University will receive a sub-award as part of the effort to build these cloud-based paleoclimatology capabilities. The overarching goal of the Geosciences program is to expand fundamental knowledge of Earth's integrated systems through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. This award advances that goal by facilitating improved access and analysis of paleoclimate data using cloud computing.
