This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award, totaling $272,164, was granted to Oregon State University to conduct collaborative research on the early Holocene geomagnetic field. The project aims to investigate changes in geomagnetic dipole moment and field morphology using Arctic paleomagnetic data from sediment cores collected across the Arctic region. The research will establish a high-quality, high-resolution paleomagnetic transect spanning the...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $320,186 will fund collaborative research to refine the archeomagnetic record of southern Africa and develop numerical dynamo simulations exploring the effect of Earth's deep interior on magnetic fields. Specifically, the University of Colorado will conduct field studies and collect archeological artifacts in southern Africa with partners in South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe to refine the Iron Age archeomagnetic record. Laboratory analyses...
This two-year, $163,559 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support the development of high-resolution records of paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in the Western North Atlantic Ocean between 380,000-780,000 years ago. Specifically, the grantee will reanalyze PSV records including directions, relative paleointensity, and evidence of six magnetic field excursions recorded in deep-sea sediments at...
