This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences provides $523,416 to support the REU Site: Summer Program at Harvard in Earth and Environmental Research (SPHEER): Investigating a Changing Planet Across Multiple Timescales. The funding supports a 10-week intensive research experience for undergraduate students working closely with Harvard University faculty and graduate students on projects involving atmospheric chemistry and physics, climate change, geochemistry, geology, and geophysics. Specific objectives include mentoring students in pioneering environmental change research, familiarizing them with integrating field and laboratory work, data analysis, and modeling, and engaging a diverse group of students in careers centered on studying the changing Earth system. The award falls under the Geosciences program ($47.050 million CFDA), which aims to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research support.
