Researchers will address how temperature influences...
This three-year, $1,135,926 National Science Foundation project grant funds research to reconcile hydroclimate model projections and geologic data from a warmer period in the past to improve understanding of future water availability in the Southwestern United States. The awardee, Colorado State University, will collect new stable isotope data from sedimentary carbonates in New Mexico spanning the Middle Miocene Climate Optimum. Analysis of existing climate model simulations will differentiate...
This $234,419 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to advance understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric water isotope ratios. The awardee, New Mexico Consortium, will utilize the Community Earth System Model to develop a new water tagging capability and directly assess the influence of physical mechanisms on isotopic composition. This will allow simulated water vapor to record evaporation conditions and...
