This $397,492 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under its Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to study the melting of ice sheets during the last interglacial period approximately 130,000 to 115,000 years ago. The project, led by The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, aims to better understand when and how much the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melted, as well as the climate conditions and ice dynamics that drove their...
This $325,213 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York will investigate the role of meltwater in governing the geophysical properties of deforming icy systems. The project aims to create new flow laws that explicitly incorporate the effects of meltwater on ice flow, which is a key factor in modeling glacial mass loss and sea level rise. The research will employ...
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...
Columbia University was awarded a $371,187 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) for the period September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025. The grant will support collaborative research to map the materiality of past human responses to climate change through archaeological, ethnohistorical, and paleoclimate data collected over three field seasons with stakeholder communities. The project aims to clarify the impacts...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $136,778 to support collaborative research on constraints of global mean sea level and fingerprinting polar ice mass flux from coastal cave records. The research aims to advance knowledge of global mean sea level variations and characterize the relative contribution of ice sheets and glaciers over the last 130,000 years....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $750,000 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado (UC Boulder) to study the groundwater connection between melting glaciers and mountain streams under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The project will characterize two glaciated watersheds in Colorado and Montana, analyze relevant environmental data, and conduct numerical modeling to understand how glacier meltwater affects aquifer...
This three-year, $511,918 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds research to develop a new framework for advancing climate model representations of cloud and convective processes. The grantee, Columbia University, will conduct fully-coupled, isotope-enabled climate simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, and Pre-Industrial periods using an ensemble of cloud and convective parameter sets. Paleoclimate data assimilation will...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $552,562 Project Grant to Columbia University under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 15, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research between Columbia University researchers and the Natural Environment Research Council in the United Kingdom to enhance understanding of trans-hemispheric climate variability through analysis of a novel...
The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $144,459 project grant to Columbia University under the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078) for the period of January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2023. The grant funding supports the collaborative research project "GENERATION OF HIGH RESOLUTION SURFACE MELTING MAPS OVER ANTARCTICA USING REGIONAL CLIMATE MODELS, REMOTE SENSING AND MACHINE LEARNING." Through this effort, Columbia University researchers...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $414,744 to Colorado State University from September 2022 through August 2025 to investigate past, present, and future glaciated alpine landscapes using integrated data and modeling. The award supports developing detailed modern and paleo glaciological datasets from the Teton Range in Wyoming and integrating them into a state-of-the-art glacier model (PyG2D) to simulate past and ongoing glacier...
