Project Grant 2305799
- This $297,732 National Science Foundation project grant will fund the Guatemala Geohazards International Research Experiences for Students program led by the University of Missouri-Kansas City from August 2022 to July 2025. The program aims to develop undergraduate students' skills in conducting and communicating scientific research on the long-term records of volcanic, seismic, and landslide hazards in Guatemala. Students will utilize field and lab research with digital technology and modern...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $352,839 to the University of Texas at El Paso from April 2021 through September 2023. The funding supports analysis of a high-quality aftershock data set from the 2017 Tehuantepec (M8.2) offshore Mexico earthquake. As part of basic research into integrated earth systems, the University will leverage the unique data to gain insights into seismic processes within subduction zones. Results from the...
- This $850,370 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will enable the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. to develop collaborative digital workflows to integrate field and laboratory data for the Subduction Zones in Four Dimensions (SZ4D) research community. The project will enhance the existing Strabo Spot data system to facilitate collaborative data collection, analysis, and knowledge sharing among geoscientists studying...
- This Project Grant award of $655,938 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project to conduct 3D multichannel seismic surveys at the East Pacific Rise volcanic system. The goal is to create high-resolution imagery that can be used to investigate how the magmatic and hydrothermal systems have changed over the past decade, providing insights into volcanic cycles on decadal timescales. The project will partner with industry...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) project grant, awarded on September 1, 2024 for $468,255, supports high-resolution seismic imaging of the crust in the Malawi (Nyasa) Rift in Africa. The researchers at Northern Arizona University will analyze seismic data to create 3D models of crustal seismic wavespeeds, which will help quantify the depth-dependent stretching within and around the rift axis, locate transitions between ancient crustal terranes, and...
- This $729,600 Project Grant was awarded on July 1, 2025 by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under CFDA Program 47.050 - Geosciences. The grant will fund a research project led by the University of Oklahoma (OU) to advance methods for inferring and modeling megathrust faulting processes across timescales, from seconds to centuries, in three major subduction zones (Chile, Japan, and Alaska). The project aims to better understand megathrust systems and assess...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $500,000 Project Grant through its Office of International Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.079) to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to facilitate a coordinated global effort to understand subduction zone geohazards. This 4-year award aims to: Develop an intellectual community to compare global subduction zone observations and cooperatively instrument critical regions to enable breakthroughs in understanding earthquakes,...
- This $268,676 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund analysis of approximately 4 km of sediment cores recovered from the Guaymas Basin in the Gulf of California through the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 385. Over a three-year period, the award will support a research team of three master's degree students mentored by two female professors to conduct lithofacies and petrofacies analyses of the cores. This work aims to...
- This $109,466 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), will fund collaborative research between the University of Texas at El Paso and researchers in Ecuador. The research aims to provide insights into the geologic processes and hazards along ocean-continent subduction plate boundaries through an integrated study of sedimentary basins and magmatism records across Ecuador. Researchers will employ...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project between the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) and Hebrew University to directly measure fault rupture dynamics and seismic wave propagation in a laboratory setting. The $399,601 award, effective from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2027, will leverage specialized laboratory equipment to conduct high-speed imaging and in-situ seismogram...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $183,720 to the University of Missouri System's Missouri University of Science & Technology to establish a temporary seismic array and support planning activities for a proposed continental scientific drilling project in the Lake Izabal Basin in Guatemala.
