- This Project Grant award of $299,731 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program aims to advance the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) principles within the Earth and space science sample data ecosystem. The project will engage four key stakeholder groups - researchers, sample repositories, data repositories, and scholarly publishers - to promote the adoption of persistent identifier (PID) infrastructure...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, with a total funding amount of $141,000, supports a collaborative research project to study and improve data management practices at NSF user facilities. The project will assess current data management practices at selected major and mid-scale NSF user facilities through surveys of facility personnel and users. The goal is to identify best practices and data...
- This $178,059 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will enable the University of Southern California to develop a machine learning-based table extraction tool to help streamline paleoclimate data analysis. The goal is to create an AI-powered Python toolbox that can automatically identify and extract tabular paleoclimate data from unstructured files, reducing the time scientists spend wrangling and annotating these datasets before...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program will fund a research project to study data management practices at NSF-funded user facilities. The $177,000 award, spanning October 2025 to September 2028, will assess current data organization, storage, and sharing practices at selected major and mid-scale NSF facilities. The goal is to create a roadmap aligned with FAIR data principles to help...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $877,305 to the University of Southern California from September 2021 through August 2024 to develop PaleoCube capabilities. PaleoCube will enable cloud-based access to paleoclimatology data and tools. The funding will support developing cloud-based infrastructure and services for storing, analyzing, and visualizing paleoclimate data. Northern Arizona University will receive a sub-award as part...
- This $141,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports a collaborative research project to study data management practices at NSF-funded user facilities. The goal is to create a roadmap aligned with FAIR data principles to improve how research data is organized, stored, and shared across these facilities. The project will assess current data management practices through surveys of facility...
- This $192,942 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports the ongoing development and enhancement of the Neotoma Paleoecology Database, a leading open-access repository for paleontological and paleoenvironmental data. The primary objectives of this 3-year grant are to: 1) Improve systems and workflows to enable higher rates of data ingestion and streamlined curation, 2) Enhance metadata and interoperability to better support AI/ML...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $246,097 supports the development of data curation and stewardship best practices in paleoclimatic and archeological research through 2026. Funded under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program, the award to the University of Arizona will improve interoperability and reproducibility across disciplinary data resources. Key activities include adopting common metadata standards to increase the findability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability of long-tail community curated data resources in paleoecology, contemporary ecology and related fields. Workshops and working groups will promote best practices in data science, curation and stewardship for early career researchers. Annual symposia will further the aims of supporting equity and improving access to science through collective benefit and responsibility in disciplinary data sharing.
