The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $383,646 Project Grant to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to conduct collaborative research on hydrogeophysical monitoring and modeling of soil salinization processes in coastal transition zones. The research aims to improve understanding of how subsurface heterogeneity regulates gradual and rapid saltwater intrusion driven by climate change and sea level rise. Key project activities include: Applying...
This $221,255 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to better understand spatial variability in sea level change during the last interglacial period approximately 120,000 years ago. The grantee will develop high-resolution global models of mantle flow to predict dynamic topography change across the greater Caribbean region over this timeframe. They will also compile a comprehensive dataset of interglacial sea level indicators...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award provides $250,854 to Princeton University's Office of Research and Project Administration to conduct collaborative research on the seismological analysis of Earth's microseism record and ocean wave climate. The research objectives are to: 1) advance the understanding of the long-term observational record of Earth's ocean gravity wave and seismic microseism field, including forward modeling of wave...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $508,160 in funding to Rutgers, The State University to conduct collaborative research on long-term changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels during past warm periods. The project aims to reconstruct the movement of the Southern Westerly Winds and evaluate its impact on the Southern Ocean's biological carbon pump and atmospheric CO2 concentrations over the last 900,000 years. The...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $795,643 Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The award will fund a research project from March 2023 through February 2026 to examine recent changes in sea level and circulation around the Grand Banks region. The project aims to investigate forcing mechanisms behind observed sea level anomalies, examine connectivity of sea level change between continental shelves and open...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to transform the understanding of how coastlines respond to shifts in storm climate patterns. The $893,081 award to Duke University, with a project period from August 2024 to July 2027, will develop new approaches to downscale global climate model outputs to forecast the waves and winds affecting specific coastlines, such as the Carolina coastline. This...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $726,244 to Rutgers, The State University for research correcting seasonal biases in sea surface temperature proxies. The research aims to improve paleoceanographic reconstructions by developing approaches to extract seasonal and mean annual temperature records from proxies. It will test these approaches in climate models under different...
