This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences (CFDA 47.050 - Geosciences) provides $895,841 to the Geological Society of America, Inc. (GSA), a non-profit scientific organization, from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. The funding will support GSA's Graduate Student Research Grants (GSRG) program, with the key goals of: 1) increasing research opportunities for students from historically excluded communities in the geosciences, 2) developing grant writing, project management, and research skills for these students, and 3) strengthening the overall geoscience workforce. Over the three-year period, GSA plans to provide approximately 1,000 research grants to graduate students, with a portion receiving additional funding to present their work at scientific conferences. This award reflects NSF's objectives to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of Earth systems through basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences.
