This $597,328 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative, multi-disciplinary research effort to investigate the long-term impacts of large igneous province volcanism on climate and biological recovery. Key objectives include: 1) developing high-resolution records of volcanism, weathering, climate, and life; 2) modeling the coupled processes of mantle dynamics, magma transport, and volcanic outgassing; 3) assimilating...
This $162,061 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Directorate for Geosciences (CFDA 47.050 - Geosciences) to The Trustees of Princeton University to conduct a collaborative, multi-disciplinary research effort. The project aims to investigate the processes that shape climate and biotic recovery following major carbon cycle perturbations caused by large igneous province volcanism events. Key objectives include developing high-resolution records of volcanism and...
This $304,716 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research effort between U.S. and U.K. institutions to study the effects of large igneous province volcanism on climate and environmental recovery. The University of California, Davis is the primary grantee, with no planned sub-awards. The project aims to develop high-resolution records of volcanism, climate, and weathering, as well as coupling models of mantle...
This $303,642 National Science Foundation project grant will fund research to quantify global carbon cycle feedbacks during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, a past period of global warming. Led by the University of California Santa Cruz, the research team will measure how volcanism contributed to atmospheric carbon dioxide rise during this event and constrain total carbon emissions through new ocean acidification records. They will also develop novel carbon cycle modeling to compare...
The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year Project Grant of $174,000 to researchers at the California Institute of Technology to develop a new technique for determining eruption timescales applied to Large Igneous Provinces and climatic events over Earth's history. The grant is part of the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Researchers will receive funding from...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $493,422 over 3 years to The Trustees of Columbia University for a collaborative research project to diagnose global climatic responses to large volcanic eruptions. The key products or services to be delivered through this funding include: Providing proxy-based global estimates of spatiotemporal changes in temperature and...
This $158,481 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research by Lehigh University to investigate the relationship between changes in glaciers, topography, and the behavior of active volcanoes in Chile over the past 50,000 years. The research aims to generate high-resolution records of volcanic activity, ice retreat, and landscape evolution, and use this data to explore how crustal loading changes driven...
This Project Grant award for $387,558 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Oregon. The project aims to develop methods for extracting statistically robust patterns from existing volcanic records, analyzing volcanism as a temporal, spatial, and spatio-temporal process. Key goals include identifying the most active volcanoes, delineating the extent of volcanic fields, and forecasting the timing...
This $308,515 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study changes in pelagic ecosystem function and their impact on the carbon cycle from the Eocene to Oligocene periods (56-33.9 million years ago). The project aims to reconstruct changes in the South Atlantic subtropical gyre ecosystem and determine how these changes affected carbonate production and preservation during a time of...
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...
