- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $170,516 Project Grant under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to investigate periodicity patterns in abyssal hill morphology in the Atlantic Ocean. The project aims to employ a newly-developed algorithm to detect and quantify any periodic signals embedded within the otherwise random abyssal hill profiles, which could provide insights into mid-ocean ridge dynamics and plate formation processes....
- This Project Grant award of $690,855 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports the development of novel, low-cost methods to measure seafloor motion over time. The University of Houston System, doing business as the University of Houston, is leading this collaborative research effort to address the challenge of precisely monitoring the ocean floor, where many natural hazards such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides originate. The project...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) project grant award to the University of Texas at Austin provides $175,290 over 3 years starting November 1, 2024 to conduct a novel 2D/3D seismic experiment investigating the early stages of seafloor spreading in the Atlantic Ocean. The project aims to shed light on the anomalous geology and mantle dynamics that occurred during the first 50 million years after the breakup of the Pangea supercontinent and the formation of...
- This two-year, $388,669 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research analyzing sediment and basalt core samples from the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 391. The University of Houston will collaborate to study the paleolatitude record of Walvis Ridge hotspot volcanoes in the late Cretaceous and early Cenozoic eras. Researchers will produce a paleolatitude timeline for comparison...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $507,530 to The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027. The project aims to develop an unsupervised deep learning algorithm to automatically identify and classify different types of seismic activity, such as icequakes, lava lake eruptions, and ash vent signals, at Erebus Volcano in Antarctica. Once validated at Erebus, the method will...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $197,841 to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography is part of the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports fundamental research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. The award funds a collaborative research project to study the history of the Earth's magnetic field strength over the last five million years, with a focus on addressing significant gaps in data from the...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a Project Grant of $372,159 to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct research on understanding the relationship between localized perturbations in the Earth's magnetic field and associated magnetospheric and ionospheric phenomena. The research aims to improve the ability to predict geomagnetically induced currents that can impact power grids and other critical infrastructure. The three-year...
- This $195,036 two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research analyzing paleomagnetic data from sediment and basalt core samples extracted during the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 391. A team of researchers led by The Leland Stanford Junior University will study samples cored from the Walvis Ridge in the South Atlantic Ocean to develop a paleolatitude record for Late Cretaceous and early Cenozoic volcanoes...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $208,680 will support research into the role of a basal magma ocean in influencing early Earth's magnetic field processes. Awarded on August 15, 2022 to the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography, with performance through July 31, 2025, the grant is part of NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The research team will conduct dynamic and static compression experiments to measure physical properties of...
