This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to understand tropical rainfall patterns in northern South America during the Pliocene and Pleistocene epochs. The $349,971 award to Brown University will fund measurements of chemical signals in a sediment core to reconstruct past rainfall, which will provide insights into the hydrological cycle during times of sustained global warmth similar to projected...
The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $125,547 Project Grant to The Washington University to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: INVESTIGATING INTER-HEMISPHERIC PHASING OF TROPICAL ANDEAN HYDROCLIMATE IN RESPONSE TO HOLOCENE ORBITAL FORCING." The grant period runs from July 15, 2021 through June 30, 2024. Under this award, The Washington University will conduct research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through the...
This $482,354 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research to study climate variability in the central tropical Pacific over the last millennium. The project will assemble radiocarbon-dated coral samples from the central equatorial Pacific to reconstruct monthly records of sea surface temperature and salinity conditions during the Medieval Climate Anomaly (850-1300 CE) and the Little Ice Age (1400-1850...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $192,386 Project Grant through its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Arizona for a 3-year collaborative research project to reconstruct tropical rainfall patterns over the last 200 years. The project aims to use stable oxygen isotopes measured in tree ring cellulose from sites across Central and South America to study variations in the position and width of the Intertropical Convergence Zone and understand how these changes...
This $415,924 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to investigate the large-scale dynamics of the tropical Indo-Pacific region during the Last Glacial Maximum. The project aims to reconstruct the tropical thermocline structure and wind patterns using ocean modeling and geochemical analysis of foraminifera sediment samples. This research will lead to a better understanding of how 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 (NSF) awarded a $562,254 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The purpose of this 3-year grant, with an award date of February 1, 2024, is to use stable oxygen isotopes measured in tree-ring cellulose across the tropical Americas to reconstruct wet season precipitation variability over the past 200 years. This research aims to gain insights into large-scale tropical climate...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $119,293 to James Madison University for collaborative research on quantitative paleoclimatology of the East African monsoon from August 15, 2021 to July 31, 2024. The grant supports basic research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through expanded knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the university will conduct collaborative research to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $274,028 Project Grant to The Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri to conduct "Collaborative Research: A 50,000-Year Continuous Record of the Indian Summer Monsoon from Loktak Lake, NE India" under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This three-year project aims to study the paleo-lake system of Loktak Lake in northeastern India to improve understanding of past, present, and projected changes in...
The University of Pittsburgh received a $397,549 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences on July 15, 2021 to develop a 700,000-year record of tropical precipitation, evaporation, and temperature from Lake Junin sediments and regional speleothems. The funding supports basic research under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences research....
