This $425,988 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to reconstruct precipitation and snowpack patterns in the south-central Sierra Nevada, California during the Holocene epoch. The project aims to use an interdisciplinary approach involving geomorphic field investigations, luminescence geochronology, and hydrologic modeling to develop detailed water-level records and understand long-term climate variability in...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $272,434 Project Grant to Brown University to reconstruct the hydroclimate of Glacial Lake Mojave from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Early Holocene (approximately 24,000 to 8,000 years ago). The project will use a combined approach of basin analysis, isotopic analysis, and hydrologic modeling to quantify changes in lake depth, volume, and the climatic drivers of these changes over this period. The research will...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $225,073 Project Grant to the CSU Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corporation Sponsored Programs Office (CSU Fullerton ASC) to support a collaborative research project focused on reconstructing the late glacial to early Holocene hydroclimate for Glacial Lake Mojave in California. The project will use a combined basin analysis, isotopic, and modeling approach to quantify past changes in water availability and assess the...
This $234,419 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to advance understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric water isotope ratios. The awardee, New Mexico Consortium, will utilize the Community Earth System Model to develop a new water tagging capability and directly assess the influence of physical mechanisms on isotopic composition. This will allow simulated water vapor to record evaporation conditions and...
This $1,800,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research at the University of California, Davis to analyze the role of decentralized investment partnerships in developing aquifer storage infrastructure. The goal is to promote economic productivity and environmental benefits, while enhancing community access to safe and reliable drinking water under a changing climate. The research will integrate political and institutional...
This $176,789 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research into the impact of evaporation and waves on groundwater dynamics in tidally influenced beaches. Over a two-year period, the University of Delaware will collect detailed field measurements at three sites in Delaware to better understand how evaporation interacting with wave action affects both salinity distributions and groundwater flowpaths in beach aquifers. The research...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) aims to improve understanding of managed aquifer recharge (MAR) processes and their long-term impacts on water availability in California's Central Valley. The $290,925 award, granted to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), will leverage airborne geophysical surveys and advanced computer modeling to provide detailed insights into how water moves through the regional aquifer system and how...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $145,352 to the University Enterprises, Inc. at Sacramento State University to develop a diverse hydrology workforce through an undergraduate hydrological research experience in a coastal California watershed. The project will engage sophomore and transfer students across three California State University campuses in a year-long learning...
This $117,414 five-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund the development of an integrated hydrologic model to better understand groundwater dynamics in the Great Lakes Basin. The University of Arizona, on behalf of the State of Arizona, will fuse hydrologic modeling with GPS, satellite imagery, and Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data to more accurately simulate surface and subsurface flows. Through data...
The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $191,470 Project Grant to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas to support research investigating the link between modern spring activity and associated paleospring mounds in Death Valley National Park. The three-year grant, awarded July 1, 2021 and set to be completed by June 30, 2024, will fund collaborative research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This program supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and...
