This $291,843 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research by the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology to study the evolution of accretionary sutures into strike-slip faults along the western margin of North America. The project aims to constrain the timescales, physical mechanisms, and pressure/temperature conditions involved as the Denali Fault Zone in Alaska transitioned from a collisional boundary...
This Project Grant award in the amount of $195,590 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project at Western Washington University (WWU) on the long-term evolution of the Denali Fault Zone in Alaska. The research aims to investigate how accretionary sutures, formed from the collision of distinct lithospheric blocks, eventually transform into major strike-slip fault systems over hundreds of millions of years. The project will...
The University of Alaska Fairbanks received a $290,273 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on arc plutonism along the Denali Fault in Alaska from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024. The grant supports basic research to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through studying possible fault controls on incremental magma transport and assembly along the long-lived strike-slip Denali Fault. The Geosciences...
The University of California, Davis will conduct collaborative research on arc plutonism along the Denali Fault in Alaska under a $185,631 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences. The research aims to study possible fault controls on incremental magma transport and assembly along the long-lived strike-slip Denali Fault. The grant was awarded on July 1, 2021 for a three-year period concluding on June 30, 2024.
The research supports the NSF's Geosciences...
This $226,022 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to investigate slow slip and fault locking along the Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone. The research team at the University of Washington will deploy a combination of traditional broadband seismic instruments and distributed acoustic sensing technology along the Cook Inlet region to collect high-resolution data on the deep structure and seismic...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $247,428 Project Grant to Trustees of Dartmouth College, Office of Sponsored Projects Division (Dartmouth College), under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The goal of this 3-year collaborative research project is to examine the Porcupine Fault System in northeastern Alaska and northwestern Yukon, Canada, which likely played a key role in the Mesozoic opening of the Arctic Ocean. The research involves a new...
This $201,306 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to investigate slow slip and fault locking along the Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone. The research team at the University of Wisconsin - Madison is deploying a combination of traditional broadband seismic instruments and distributed acoustic sensing technology along the Cook Inlet region to model the structure and seismic wave speeds in the...
This $499,286 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to reconstruct the history of earthquakes and tsunamis along the Alaska-Aleutian Subduction Zone over the past 2,000 years. The project aims to fill knowledge gaps between recent observed events and prehistoric occurrences by using innovative paleontological and modeling methods. Key products will include quantifying vertical deformation over time using a new...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $220,031 supports research at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and Penn State University from January 2023 through December 2024. The grant is funded through the NSF's Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083), which enhances STEM competitiveness through capacity building and broadening participation in research.
Specifically, the grant will fund the development of a novel fault sliding test system to experimentally investigate the...
