- This $248,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support a collaborative research project to investigate Arctic sea ice coverage and its biogeochemical impacts over the past 150,000 years. The research team at the University of Massachusetts Boston will analyze ocean sediment cores to reconstruct historical Arctic sea ice extent and ocean conditions during past warm periods, including the Holocene Thermal Maximum and the Last...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $503,027.00 is funding a collaborative research project to assess the formation, morphology, and persistence of North American ice patches over the Holocene period. The research aims to develop detailed, multifaceted records of environmental and ecological change in high-elevation regions across the Northern Rocky Mountains and Alaska, where few long-term historical records exist. The...
- This $1,237,840 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs, under CFDA Program 47.078, will fund research by the University of Colorado to quantify climate variability and extremes over the past 100,000 years. The research team will use high-resolution measurements from ancient polar ice cores to statistically analyze changes in climate variability and the frequency of extreme events as the Earth's average climate has fluctuated over...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $359,487, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to The Trustees of Princeton University. The funding will be used to develop advanced analytical methods for high-resolution chemical imaging and dating of ancient ice cores from Antarctica's Blue Ice Areas, which contain climate records spanning over 1 million years. Specifically, the project will utilize cryo-cell laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) awarded a $780,358 Project Grant to The Ohio State University for the project "CAREER: TRANSPORT OF AIR POLLUTANTS BETWEEN MID-LATITUDES AND THE POLAR REGIONS: AN 800-YEAR PERSPECTIVE FROM A RUSSIAN ARCTIC ICE-CORE RECORD." The project will reconstruct an 800-year history of fires, dust, sea ice, and Arctic glaciers using an ice core from Franz Joseph Land, Russia. This comprehensive project aims to establish a baseline...
- This $194,921 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will fund collaborative research to constrain and understand regional modes of variability in the Atlantic Arctic over the next two years.
