- This Project Grant award, valued at $317,289.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside. The award is for a collaborative research project investigating the coupling between superelevation and gradient advantage in river avulsions, a natural hazard where rivers jump out of their banks and create devastating floods. The project aims to develop a unified theory for the processes that prime...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $325,029 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University, for the project "Investigating the Coupling Between Superelevation and Gradient Advantage in River Avulsions." This collaborative research project aims to develop a new unified theory for the processes that prime river avulsions, where rivers jump out of their banks and carve a new path across the...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded $627,744 under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to The Washington University from July 2022 to June 2025. This Project Grant will support research aimed at developing a physical model to assess the sensitivity of mountain river channels to shifts in climate and associated hazards. Specifically, the grant will fund 1) analysis of high-resolution topography and sediment transport data to establish baseline...
- The National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded Northeastern University a $998,696 Project Grant to evaluate how communities have responded to recent floods and develop new tools to help those communities build resilience to flooding hazards. The project will collaborate with community partners to understand what drives flooding at the local scale, how flood hazards evolve under different scenarios, and how communities have responded to past flood events. The...
- This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), under the USGS Research and Data Collection program (CFDA 15.808), provides $239,278 to the University of Washington to conduct research focused on three main topics: Modeling flood hazards in river delta systems, with a focus on the Nooksack River and understanding the impacts of morphological changes on flooding under future sea level rise scenarios. Developing a conceptual framework for modeling compound flood hazards in...
- This three-year, $234,084 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the geomorphic legacy of megaflood deposits in the Eastern Himalaya. The grantee, the University of Washington, will investigate how catastrophic flood events contributed to the evolution of steep, high-relief mountain landscapes through unique flood deposits in the region. The project team will determine the source, depositional age, and grain...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $400,000 to the University of Arkansas to develop a low-cost approach to monitor the Qanirtuuq River on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in Alaska. The award, with an effective date of October 1, 2025 and a completion date of September 30, 2026, involves a university-community partnership to study the river's ecosystem stability and create efficient,...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $590,428 will fund research at Utah State University from July 2022 to June 2025 to develop a physical model characterizing the response of mountain river channels to climate change perturbations. The research aims to separate river response signals from inherent natural variability through three components: establishing a baseline variability model using high-resolution topography and sediment data; developing a physical linkage between...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a $466,599 research project at Washington State University to study the hydrological and ecosystem impacts of beaver dam analogs, a common river restoration approach. The 3-year project, running from October 2024 to September 2027, aims to develop the scientific foundation for measuring and modeling the effects of these structures on water flows, with the goal of improving restoration...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Washington State University a $273,481 Project Grant under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The research aims to inform river corridor transport modeling by harnessing community data and physics-aware machine learning. The Geosciences program supports basic research to strengthen understanding of Earth's integrated system through...
