This National Science Foundation project grant award of $249,068 provides funding from February 1, 2022 through January 31, 2025 to support collaborative research understanding the influence of tectonic setting on the depth of magmatic processes in the mid-ocean ridge system. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system, this award will...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a 3-year, $325,841 Project Grant to the University of Wyoming under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on understanding the processes and timescales of basalt petrogenesis and oceanic crustal construction at slow-spreading mid-ocean ridges. The research will measure the chemical characteristics of volcanic rock produced along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge to understand mantle melting and...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $360,704 Project Grant to the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology (SDSM&T) under the Geosciences CFDA Program (47.050) to assess the paleoenvironmental and geobiological significance of carbonates from the Eocene-Oligocene boundary in the White River Group in southwestern South Dakota. The key objectives are to: 1) identify the extent of these lake deposits and understand their sedimentology and...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded $851,808 to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for a project grant running from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2025. The grant will support research analyzing tectonic degassing as a potential driver of the mid-Miocene climate transition approximately 14 million years ago, when the Earth experienced sustained cooling. Key products include new biomarker-based sea surface...
This National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences Project Grant of $478,929 will fund collaborative research on reaction pathways during the alteration of seafloor mantle rocks by seawater, known as serpentinization. This three-year award to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution beginning August 1, 2022 will conduct laboratory experiments to better understand the underlying processes of serpentinization. The results will improve models and allow scientists to better interpret altered...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $561,018 project grant to the University of South Carolina under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research examining three decades of foraminiferal assemblages in the Santa Barbara Basin. Over the three-year period from July 2022 to June 2025, the University will create a thirty-year record of planktic foraminifera abundances from stored samples collected in the Santa Barbara Basin, California....
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $260,366 Project Grant to the University of Washington's Office of Sponsored Programs to support collaborative research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The research aims to conduct shipboard measurements of dissolved aluminum, iron, and manganese to trace inputs to the South Pacific Gyre and Southern Ocean from September 2021 through August 2024. The Geosciences program seeks to expand fundamental knowledge of...
