This $303,170 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research investigating magma diversification and mobilization processes in the lower continental crust. The project, led by researchers at The University Corporation, a non-profit organization affiliated with California State University, Northridge, aims to determine the key mechanisms controlling how magmas are generated and extracted from the deep roots of a...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $296,096 to Brown University provides funding to investigate the crust and uppermost mantle beneath active volcanoes using new seismic analysis techniques. The 2-year project, starting on Sep 1, 2024, aims to advance understanding of how magma storage and migration affect the eruptibility of volcanoes in regions like Yellowstone, the Cascades Arc, and the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex. Key...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $597,142 Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to support collaborative research titled "Volcanism on the Edge - Basaltic Volcanism from Source to Surface across the Colorado Plateau/Basin & Range Transition in SW Utah." The three-year award beginning August 1, 2022 will fund research examining nearly forty Quaternary basaltic volcanic fields...
This $490,303 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project aimed at improving the understanding of lava flow properties and their impact on volcanic eruption hazard assessment. The key products and services to be delivered under this award include: Developing and deploying two new field tools to directly measure the viscosity of natural lava flows, which contain critical elements like bubbles and crystals...
This $213,696 National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award will support research to gain new insights into the subsurface magma reservoirs below Hawaii. The project will use seismic data and modern imaging techniques to determine the depth, dimensions, and melt fraction of magma storage zones, and explore the relationship between magma migration and seismic activity. The research will be conducted by the University of Illinois, with a PhD student...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences Project Grant award for $180,000 from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2026 will support research to develop a new "Eruption Stability Diagram" classification system for volcanic eruptions. The objective is to better understand and predict the evolution of volcanic hazards, such as ash clouds and pyroclastic density currents, by accounting for the effects of varying eruption rates and micrometer-scale processes. The research...
This National Science Foundation Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) project grant award of $292,742 to the University of Houston System will fund collaborative research to re-evaluate magma storage depths and the origin of chemical variability in volcanic systems in the Cascade region. The key products of this 3-year project include: Measuring the volatile contents, including CO2, in olivine-hosted melt inclusions to better constrain magma storage depths in the Cascade region and gain insights into...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation provides $174,000 to study the role of deformation in triggering volcanic eruptions. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), this award will support research from September 2021 through August 2023 to strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system processes. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences through basic research. This particular grant will further...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $120,831 Project Grant to the University of Wyoming (UW) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the interplay of surface evolution, shallow magmatism, and a large hydrothermal system at the Puyehue-Cordon Caulle volcanic complex in Chile. The goal of this 5-year project is to enhance understanding of the natural hazards associated with volcanic intrusions and transitions between explosive and effusive eruption behaviors. The...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $578,106 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) will advance understanding of super-eruptions and the deposits they leave behind, known as ignimbrites. The project will investigate fundamental questions about the behavior of large-volume pyroclastic flows and how welding occurs in ignimbrite deposits, with implications for volcanic hazard mitigation and natural...
