This $699,699 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to apply active and passive seismic imaging techniques to provide a high-resolution three-dimensional image of the subsurface summit structure of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii after its 2018 collapse. The University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science will partner with the U.S. Geological Survey to deploy a temporary seismic array and conduct...
The University of Hawaii at Manoa received a $296,022 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2024. The grant funds research to constrain trans-crustal magmatic systems along the Aleutian Island Arc through the use of receiver functions. The Geosciences program supports basic research in the earth sciences to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system. The three-year award period will...
This $161,641 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to apply active and passive seismic imaging techniques to provide a high-resolution three-dimensional image of the subsurface summit structure of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii. Funded from February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2026, the award to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will integrate an active-passive seismic survey of the Kilauea summit with a temporary nodal...
This $249,414 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to image the magmatic system at the East Pacific Rise over decadal timescales. The primary awardee, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, will conduct a 3-D multichannel seismic survey to study how the magmatic and hydrothermal plumbing systems have changed since a previous survey in 2008. This time-lapse imagery will advance understanding of...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will provide $310,635 to the University of Illinois to investigate the subsurface structure beneath the Yellowstone volcanic province in Wyoming. The project aims to create a high-resolution 3D image of seismic wave speeds in Yellowstone's magma reservoir using advanced full waveform inversion techniques. This will help uncover insights into the crustal magma storage and enhance the understanding of...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $423,378 project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Illinois State University from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The grant will support collaborative research to investigate subglacial silicic magma systems beneath Vatnajökull glacier in Iceland. Researchers will explore the origin, evolution, age and longevity of magmas in this region to further understand Iceland's glaciological volcanic hazard potential and gain insight into...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $133,966 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa. This 5-year grant will fund the deployment of a seafloor geodetic network to measure horizontal and vertical deformation along the submarine south flank of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii. The research aims to better understand the geometry and behavior of the offshore fault system, including how seismic, aseismic, and slow-slip events on the fault transfer...
The University of Colorado received a $121,461 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The grant funds basic research to image volcanic transcrustal magmatic systems using teleseismic converted phases. The NSF Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through support of basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $405,563 Project Grant under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) federal grant program to the University of Miami to conduct a three-year seismic investigation of Mauna Loa volcano in Hawaii. The project aims to deploy 54 seismometers on and around the volcano to record local and distant earthquakes, analyze the data to map the subsurface structure and identify magma chambers and potential pathways for magma ascent. This...
This $335,489 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project focused on understanding the depth-dependent decarbonation processes that occur when hot magma interacts with the Earth's crust in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. The project combines field studies, laboratory analyses, and numerical modeling to explore how metamorphic pressure, temperature, and fluid availability influence...
