The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded a $177,674 Project Grant to the Smithsonian Institution under the Geosciences program (CFDA# 47.050) to enhance the discoverability and use of paleontological specimen data. The 2-year project aims to: (1) connect existing open science cyberinfrastructure resources to better integrate data from fossil and biological collections; (2) democratize access to digitized paleontological data for research; and (3) expand...
This Project Grant award of $172,793 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support a collaborative research project. The goal is to study a geological core sample from the U.S. Midwest that provides a record of the dramatic climate transition from a glacial "icehouse" period to a severe "hothouse" period approximately 300 million years ago, culminating in the largest mass extinction...

This $201,076 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (under the CFDA program "Computer and Information Science and Engineering") aims to integrate two data systems, MacroStrat and Sedimentary Geochemistry and Paleoenvironments (SGP), to better link geochemical proxy records to crustal stratigraphic context. Key activities include:

  1. Connecting SGP sample data to MacroStrat's geologic units and columns
  2. Developing new web interfaces for visualizing and entering stratigraphic column data
  3. Engaging the SGP research community to capture columns that contextualize geochemical datasets

The goal is to provide access to well-structured, harmonized stratigraphic and geochemical data to enable new research approaches integrating bulk and proxy-based rock measurements. This award, spanning from Sep 2023 to Aug 2026, is jointly supported by NSF's Divisions of Research, Innovation, Synergies, and Education (RISE), Earth Sciences (EAR), and Sedimentary Geology and Paleobiology.
