- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) awards $675,795 to the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa's School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) to support the "Earth Science on Volcanic Islands" (ESVI) Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site. The program aims to provide 30 undergraduate students from across the nation with cutting-edge STEM research and professional development opportunities focused on...
- This $109,466 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), will fund collaborative research between the University of Texas at El Paso and researchers in Ecuador. The research aims to provide insights into the geologic processes and hazards along ocean-continent subduction plate boundaries through an integrated study of sedimentary basins and magmatism records across Ecuador. Researchers will employ...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $352,839 to the University of Texas at El Paso from April 2021 through September 2023. The funding supports analysis of a high-quality aftershock data set from the 2017 Tehuantepec (M8.2) offshore Mexico earthquake. As part of basic research into integrated earth systems, the University will leverage the unique data to gain insights into seismic processes within subduction zones. Results from the...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $142,251 supports research examining the influence of critical zone processes on topography in Puerto Rico. Funded under the Integrative Activities program, the award will test hypotheses about how differences in bedrock geology and associated soil characteristics impact landslide occurrence, sediment grain sizes in rivers, and flood frequencies. Researchers from the University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez and Colorado State University will conduct...
- This $850,370 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will enable the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. to develop collaborative digital workflows to integrate field and laboratory data for the Subduction Zones in Four Dimensions (SZ4D) research community. The project will enhance the existing Strabo Spot data system to facilitate collaborative data collection, analysis, and knowledge sharing among geoscientists studying...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $386,037 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the formation and eruption behavior of volcanoes in subduction zones. The project aims to investigate the origin of silicic, volatile-rich magmas in young Mexican volcanoes to determine whether they form deep within the Earth's mantle or develop in the crust above the mantle. Researchers will analyze the...
- This $164,006 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research initiative to enhance community resilience to landslide hazards in underserved rural, isolated, and small communities (RISC) in southwestern Puerto Rico. The primary objectives are to: (1) establish new partnerships with federal and local stakeholders to facilitate data access and coordinated disaster response; (2) co-produce research questions and...
This $297,732 National Science Foundation project grant will fund the Guatemala Geohazards International Research Experiences for Students program led by the University of Missouri-Kansas City from August 2022 to July 2025. The program aims to develop undergraduate students' skills in conducting and communicating scientific research on the long-term records of volcanic, seismic, and landslide hazards in Guatemala. Students will utilize field and lab research with digital technology and modern analytical equipment to collaborate with Guatemalan students, professors, and industry partners on research questions related to geological hazards in Guatemala City. The program aligns with the Office of International Science and Engineering's mission to strengthen international partnerships and advance scientific discovery through enabling U.S. leadership in the global scientific community.
