The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $198,753 project grant to Carnegie Mellon University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct interdisciplinary research on tropical glacierized volcanoes as sentinels of global change. The project aims to determine how climate change is driving glacier retreat on Andean volcanoes in the inner tropics, and how this is triggering impacts on water supply, vegetation, and elemental cycling in these ecologically...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $286,415 Project Grant to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the impacts of climate change on tropical glacierized volcanoes in the Andes of Ecuador. The overarching objective is to determine how glacier retreat on culturally and ecologically critical Andean volcanoes is triggering impacts on water supply, vegetation, land-use, and elemental...
This $158,481 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research by Lehigh University to investigate the relationship between changes in glaciers, topography, and the behavior of active volcanoes in Chile over the past 50,000 years. The research aims to generate high-resolution records of volcanic activity, ice retreat, and landscape evolution, and use this data to explore how crustal loading changes driven...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences provides $379,540 to The Trustees of Columbia University in New York to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: UNDERSTANDING GLACIAL-GEOMORPHIC-CLIMATIC CHANGES IN THE ARID ANDES: CORDILLERA ORIENTAL AS A CASE STUDY." The research aims to strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system changes through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, as outlined in the...
This Project Grant award of $247,233 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to advance the understanding of volcanic processes, natural hazards, and landscape evolution at the Puyehue-Cordón Caulle volcanic complex in Chile. The key products and services to be delivered through this 5-year project include: Integrated study of the interplay between surface processes, shallow magmatism, and hydrothermal activity to evaluate...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $120,831 Project Grant to the University of Wyoming (UW) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the interplay of surface evolution, shallow magmatism, and a large hydrothermal system at the Puyehue-Cordon Caulle volcanic complex in Chile. The goal of this 5-year project is to enhance understanding of the natural hazards associated with volcanic intrusions and transitions between explosive and effusive eruption behaviors. The...
The Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $832,098 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) on September 15, 2023. The award will fund a 4-year collaborative research project to investigate the impacts of climate change-driven glacier retreat on Andean volcanoes in the inner tropics, including effects on water supply, vegetation, elemental cycling, and local indigenous Kichwa communities. The...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $552,562 Project Grant to Columbia University under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 15, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research between Columbia University researchers and the Natural Environment Research Council in the United Kingdom to enhance understanding of trans-hemispheric climate variability through analysis of a novel...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $493,422 over 3 years to The Trustees of Columbia University for a collaborative research project to diagnose global climatic responses to large volcanic eruptions.

This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $236,141 supports research by Columbia University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) from May 15, 2022 to April 30, 2025. The research aims to reconstruct the missing geological record of late Proterozoic tectonism along the western margin of Laurentia using low-temperature thermochronology. Researchers will study the thermal imprint of sedimentary cover on basement rocks beneath major unconformities to fill a one-billion-year gap in the...

The National Science Foundation awarded a $274,166 Project Grant to Columbia University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the linkages between glacio-climatic, hydrothermal, and volcanic processes in the central Andes from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2025.

Specifically, the research aims to establish spatial and temporal relationships between glacier fluctuations including deglaciation and the onset of hydrothermal and/or volcanic activity through constraining the distribution and timing of events. It will also make quantitative estimations of hydrothermal responses to glacial unloading and changes in water and heat supply using field data, ice thickness models, and numerical models of multiphase flow and deformation in heterogeneous porous media. The interdisciplinary project brings together experts from US institutions and Chile to advance understanding of competing controls on hydrothermal responses related to glacier distribution, thickness, rates of advance/recession, rheology, permeability, and reservoir depth.
