- This $116,693 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to illuminate fundamental climate processes that influenced terrestrial ecology in western Pangea during Earth's previous icehouse period. Key goals combine paleontology, isotope geochemistry, and magnetostratigraphy to: identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary in Utah's Cutler Group sedimentary rocks; determine the pace and...
- The Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $398,967 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research calibrating the pace of paleotropical environmental and ecological change during Earth's previous icehouse period from 304 to 280 million years ago. The research aims to identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary and correlate...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $271,558.00 to Rowan University to conduct collaborative research on the effects of early icehouse climate extremes on vertebrate paleobiology during the Late Devonian period, approximately 360 million years ago. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award, which runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, include: Collecting and analyzing rock and fossil...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to develop an integrated framework for understanding the Late Devonian mass extinctions and associated changes in ocean chemistry and climate. The $231,421 award to Texas A&M University aims to: Establish a new geologic framework linking Late Devonian mass extinctions to the formation of epeiric black shale deposits across North and South America using...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to examine how terrestrial ecosystems were rebuilt following the Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction event approximately 66 million years ago. The $234,197 award, with a project period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2028, will fund paleontological and geochemical analyses of fossil collections and new field...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $282,421, with a period of performance from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, is funded through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The project aims to develop a modern chronostratigraphy and paleoenvironment reconstruction for the Naran Bulak and Gashato Formations in Mongolia, which contain an important fossil mammal record from the early Paleogene period (66-48 million years ago). The research will apply high-precision...
- This $147,302 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research at Dartmouth College to develop a new geological framework for understanding key events in Earth's history during the early Paleogene period (~66-48 million years ago).
