This $696,926 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds collaborative research between the University of New Mexico, University of South Florida, and Harvard University to advance understanding of global mean sea level variations and the relative contributions of polar ice sheets and glaciers. The researchers will use geological records preserved in coastal cave deposits to reconstruct global mean sea level history over the past 130,000 years...
This $221,255 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to better understand spatial variability in sea level change during the last interglacial period approximately 120,000 years ago. The grantee will develop high-resolution global models of mantle flow to predict dynamic topography change across the greater Caribbean region over this timeframe. They will also compile a comprehensive dataset of interglacial sea level indicators...
This $999,721 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project titled "RAISE: SAFEGUARDING U.S. COASTAL GROUNDWATER SUPPLIES FROM FLOODING AND SALTWATER INTRUSION" at the University of Florida. The project aims to develop strategies and decision-support tools to address challenges faced by coastal communities due to rising sea levels, climate change, urban sprawl, and agricultural impacts on...
This Project Grant award for $322,497.00 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Wisconsin System. The award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2027, will support a postdoctoral fellowship to research the timing and magnitude of sea-level changes during the Last Interglacial period approximately 125,000 years ago. The research aims to leverage existing samples from fossil coral reefs in Western Australia and the...
This $129,726 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project to develop a 500,000-year speleothem growth history near the southern margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet in New York State. The research aims to determine if the ice sheet reached New York during each of the past five ice ages, which will provide insights into the consistency of ice sheet response to climate change drivers and improve estimates...
This $200,000 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at the University of Michigan from September 2022 to August 2025 to investigate the importance of sea-level feedbacks in stabilizing marine-based ice sheets during retreat. The research will combine new late Pleistocene/Holocene relative sea-level data from Scotland with glacial isostatic adjustment models to understand sensitivity of the former Minch Ice Stream to local...
The National Science Foundation awarded Morgan State University a $549,616 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "Identification of Absolute Sea Level Rise and Land Subsidence from Long-Term Tide Gauge Records along Coasts of the Gulf of Mexico and the Chesapeake Bay." The three-year grant, awarded July 1, 2021 and concluding June 30, 2024, will fund research to strengthen understanding of sea level rise and land subsidence through analysis of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $162,339 to Trustees of Boston College, doing business as Boston College, for a research project titled "Developing a 500 kyr Speleothem Growth History near the Southern Laurentide Ice Sheet Margin in New York State." The project will use speleothem (cave formation) data to determine if the Laurentide Ice Sheet advanced to near its Last Glacial Maximum extent during each of...
The University of South Florida (USF) received a $441,804 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on characterizing Northern Hemisphere atmospheric variability from Central American wind gap-induced upwelling. This 2-year grant, starting on February 1, 2024, will leverage sediment proxy measurements, climate model simulations, and data product examinations to investigate the driving mechanisms behind the variability...
The University of South Florida received a three-year, $352,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant funds collaborative research on dissolved concentrations, isotopes, and colloids of the bioactive trace metals. The Geosciences program supports basic research to strengthen understanding of Earth's integrated system. This award will further such understanding through research on key trace metal...
