The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $699,380 project grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University, under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund collaborative research to integrate fluorspar age dating and geophysical models to investigate the timing and mechanisms of the collapse of the Cordillera mountain range in southwestern North America approximately 30 million...
The Stony Brook University Research Foundation received a three-year, $201,164 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences to support research integrating tectonics, surface processes and paleobiodiversity using numerical and observational approaches. The grant was awarded June 1, 2021 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen the geosciences through basic research of the integrated Earth system. Specifically, the funding will support...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) award of $335,489 provides funding for a collaborative research project on depth-dependent decarbonation in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. The project combines field work, laboratory analysis, and numerical modeling to study the influence of metamorphic pressure, temperature, and fluid availability on decarbonation and mineralization processes in the lower continental crust. The research aims to improve...

The grant was awarded on September 1, 2021 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support research exploring dislocation structures with conventional electron backscatter diffraction through August 31, 2023. The Geosciences program aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in...
This $355,607 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to investigate an ancient example of flat-slab subduction in southern California and western Arizona. The goal is to collect data from rocks that were once located above the descending oceanic plate in order to improve simulations and understanding of similar modern tectonic settings, many of which pose significant...
The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $175,666 Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF SUNY), doing business as Stony Brook University. The funding will support collaborative research examining the role of the Porcupine Fault System in the Mesozoic opening of the Arctic Ocean. This study involves a new partnership between early career and senior academic researchers, federal and state/territory...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $104,601 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY) at the Geneseo campus. The grant, effective November 1, 2024 through October 31, 2027, supports collaborative research to develop an integrated understanding of the Late Devonian Earth system, with a focus on ocean-climate-biosphere interactions during this critical period in Earth's history. Key objectives include: 1)...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $117,832 awarded on July 1, 2022 will support research into the geological processes that have shaped the continental lithosphere beneath New England through time. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the investigators from Williams College and research institutions will conduct seismic imaging of the crust and upper mantle using data from deployments of seismometers in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $172,594 Project Grant to Oregon State University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for a 3-year collaborative undergraduate research project. The grant will fund an investigation into the tectonic and landscape evolution of the Klamath Mountains region of the Pacific Northwest, which was shaped by the accretion of the Siletzia oceanic plateau onto the North American plate millions of years ago. The principal...
The National Science Foundation awarded $150,455 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York for a project grant ending January 31, 2025. The award will support research to develop diffusion models for major and trace elements in orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene, which are important mantle and crustal minerals. The project has three key tasks: theoretical and numerical modeling of cation diffusion across exsolution lamellae in...
