This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) is funding a $216,562 collaborative research project between the University of Southern California (USC) and George Mason University to characterize hydroclimate changes over Western North America and Europe in response to the global warmth of the Middle Miocene period (around 15 million years ago). The project aims to understand how water availability may change in a warming climate by investigating...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences Project Grant award of $267,850 from the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to advance understanding of the relationship between groundwater ages and silicate weathering rates at the catchment scale.

The research will leverage a comprehensive water age and weathering tracer dataset to develop a coupled hydrologic and geochemical model of the Sagehen Creek Basin in California. This collaborative effort will support two early career scientists, one PhD student, and a field technician, while also providing opportunities for undergraduate research. The project aims to generate insights into critical zone science questions related to watershed hydrogeochemical response to climate change through this hybrid hydrological and geochemical approach.
