This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $497,704 to the University of Washington supports a collaborative research study called the "GREENFJORD-FIBER" project. The goal of this project is to use advanced instrumentation, including distributed temperature sensing (DTS) and distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) systems, to better understand how Greenlandic glaciers interact with the ocean, particularly the processes by which icebergs detach...

The National Science Foundation (NSF), under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $492,989 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, operating through its Office of Contracts and Grants, to develop QGreenland-Net - a cloud-based geospatial data infrastructure for Greenland-focused research and education. This 3-year grant will build capacity for open data sharing, shared data services, and consistent standards across U.S., Greenland, and Denmark-based data producers and geospatial software creators. The project aims to improve discoverability, accessibility, and interoperability of critical geospatial data resources for Greenland-focused research and education, which are currently dispersed and inaccessible. QGreenland-Net will create open data services to simplify geospatial data integration, enabling researchers and managers to better map, analyze, and model changes in the Greenlandic Arctic. The project will also introduce an educator-specific QGreenland package to support teaching of polar science principles.
