The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $274,028 Project Grant to The Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri to conduct "Collaborative Research: A 50,000-Year Continuous Record of the Indian Summer Monsoon from Loktak Lake, NE India" under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This three-year project aims to study the paleo-lake system of Loktak Lake in northeastern India to improve understanding of past, present, and projected changes in the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM). The research will analyze sediment cores from the lake to reconstruct past lake levels and environmental changes, test hypotheses related to the drivers of ISM variability, and provide an improved understanding of the ISM's response to future increases in greenhouse gases and associated global changes. The project leverages partnerships with Manipur University in India to enhance community engagement and understanding of the research findings.
