The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $484,930 Project Grant to Columbia University to develop a novel multi-camera system for continuous, real-time monitoring of active volcanoes. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), this two-year project aims to create an integrated system that can autonomously observe volcanoes across visible, thermal, and ultraviolet wavelengths to extract critical monitoring data. The system will automatically analyze the video...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation provides $174,000 to study the role of deformation in triggering volcanic eruptions. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), this award will support research from September 2021 through August 2023 to strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system processes. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences through basic research. This particular grant will further...
This Project Grant award for $387,558 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Oregon. The project aims to develop methods for extracting statistically robust patterns from existing volcanic records, analyzing volcanism as a temporal, spatial, and spatio-temporal process. Key goals include identifying the most active volcanoes, delineating the extent of volcanic fields, and forecasting the timing...
This $237,804 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support the University of New Mexico's research to study the magmatic plumbing system beneath Mount Erebus, an active volcano in Antarctica. The project will apply deep learning algorithms to analyze decades of seismic data in order to detect, locate, and characterize the full range of seismic activity at Mount Erebus. This comprehensive analysis is intended to better reveal the dynamics of...
This $374,308 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research at Montana State University focused on understanding the pre-eruptive processes and timescales that trigger volcanic eruptions, particularly at Alaska's Okmok volcano. The research team will integrate geochemical analysis of erupted products with geophysical monitoring data to elucidate the deep magmatic processes that lead to different eruption styles, volumes, and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $296,096 to Brown University provides funding to investigate the crust and uppermost mantle beneath active volcanoes using new seismic analysis techniques. The 2-year project, starting on Sep 1, 2024, aims to advance understanding of how magma storage and migration affect the eruptibility of volcanoes in regions like Yellowstone, the Cascades Arc, and the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex. Key...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $597,142 Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to support collaborative research titled "Volcanism on the Edge - Basaltic Volcanism from Source to Surface across the Colorado Plateau/Basin & Range Transition in SW Utah." The three-year award beginning August 1, 2022 will fund research examining nearly forty Quaternary basaltic volcanic fields...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $230,516 to the University of Utah to characterize the spatial and temporal variations of volcanic rift zones on basaltic shield volcanoes in Hawaii. The project aims to obtain detailed subsurface imaging of the rift zones at Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes, which is essential for volcanic hazard mitigation. It will collect seismic data, including a follow-up survey to one conducted after...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $405,563 Project Grant under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) federal grant program to the University of Miami to conduct a three-year seismic investigation of Mauna Loa volcano in Hawaii. The project aims to deploy 54 seismometers on and around the volcano to record local and distant earthquakes, analyze the data to map the subsurface structure and identify magma chambers and potential pathways for magma ascent. This...
The National Science Foundation (NSF), under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $282,980 project grant to the Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF-SUNY) at the University at Albany. The grant, effective September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026, supports collaborative research to diagnose global climatic responses to large volcanic eruptions. The key research effort involves providing proxy-based global estimates of spatiotemporal changes in temperature...
