The Trustees of Indiana University were awarded a $298,510 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences. The grant will fund a collaborative research project titled "Integrating Tectonics, Surface Processes and Paleobiodiversity Using Numerical and Observational Approaches" from June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2024. The research aims to strengthen fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through supporting basic research in atmospheric, earth, and...
This $270,754 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program supports collaborative research to investigate the impacts of the ongoing megadrought in the American West on soil moisture, ecosystem carbon-water cycling, and remote sensing capabilities. The research team, led by the Trustees of Indiana University, will synthesize hundreds of long-term soil moisture measurements with remotely-sensed data and eddy covariance tower observations to...
This Project Grant award of $827,017 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to examine the impact of the evolution of land plants on the Earth system. The research team, led by Yale University, is generating new field-based geochemical and paleontological data from the Canadian Arctic to reconstruct ecological and environmental changes concurrent with the radiation of early land plants during the Silurian-Devonian transition....
This $162,243 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research at the University of Central Florida (UCF) to advance predictive understanding of landscape evolution and erosional extremes under changing climatic conditions. The key objectives are to: (1) extract local geomorphic transport laws driving landscape evolution using large-scale experimental data and novel physics-informed artificial intelligence methods; (2)...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project titled "CAREER: Quantifying Climate Induced Landscape Evolution During Early Eocene Hyperthermals". The $498,733 award, which commenced on October 1, 2024, will fund a project to reconstruct paleoclimate and landscape response in three sedimentary basins in the western U.S. during the early Eocene hyperthermal events. The research will use a multi-proxy...
This Project Grant award of $172,793 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support a collaborative research project. The goal is to study a geological core sample from the U.S. Midwest that provides a record of the dramatic climate transition from a glacial "icehouse" period to a severe "hothouse" period approximately 300 million years ago, culminating in the largest mass extinction...
Purdue University was awarded a $108,935 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on climatic control of erosion rates and landscape morphology in Hawaii. The two-year award running from August 2023 to July 2025 will fund research quantifying the influence of fluvial thresholds on landscape response to climate change through study of evolving Hawaiian landforms. Key deliverables include field measurements, digital...
This Project Grant award of $285,980 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research by the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to examine the effects of early land plant evolution on the Earth system. The key products of this research include: Generating new high-resolution field-based geochemical and paleontological data from the Canadian Arctic to reconstruct ecological and environmental changes concurrent with the...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $349,754 to Montana State University (MSU) to quantify how century to millennial-scale hillslope geomorphic processes influence the storage of ice and carbon in Arctic permafrost soils. The research aims to shed light on fundamental geological processes that control the resilience and vulnerability of ground-ice and carbon in permafrost landscapes, which is critical for understanding future...
