This NSF Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $396,820 to Brown University will be used to produce up to 20 new monthly-resolved records of sea-surface temperature and hydrological variability in the central tropical Pacific from 1800-1950 CE. The project will use oxygen isotope and trace element measurements in modern and fossil corals from Kiritimati Island to reconstruct this climate history. The research aims to improve understanding of long-term trends and variability in...
This $409,233 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to connect seasonal to millennial timescales through a new 4D variational framework for assimilating paleoclimate proxy data. The key products and services to be delivered include: Developing and implementing a new data assimilation approach to integrate high-resolution (monthly to decadal) paleoclimate proxies, such as coral records and sediment...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant, CFDA 47.050, provides $303,755 in funding to Georgia Tech Research Corporation to conduct collaborative research on reconstructing climate variability in the Southern Caribbean using coral and speleothem paleoclimate records. The 3-year project from September 2023 to August 2026 will generate high-resolution, precisely dated proxy records of temperature and hydroclimate from the arid Southern Caribbean region, which has been underrepresented in paleoclimate studies to date. The research aims to develop an integrated understanding of how terrestrial and marine carbonate archives record past environmental change in this coastal region, with the goal of providing long-term climate context to support Caribbean communities in adapting to the impacts of anthropogenic climate change.
