- This $136,992 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports continued operation of a seafloor pressure recorder instrument at Axial Seamount on the Juan de Fuca spreading ridge through mid-2027. The instrument provides high-resolution measurements of seafloor pressure that can be used to better understand the volcano's magmatic processes before, during, and after an anticipated eruption in 2025 or 2026. The award covers instrument...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $484,930 Project Grant to Columbia University to develop a novel multi-camera system for continuous, real-time monitoring of active volcanoes. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), this two-year project aims to create an integrated system that can autonomously observe volcanoes across visible, thermal, and ultraviolet wavelengths to extract critical monitoring data. The system will automatically analyze the video...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $386,037 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the formation and eruption behavior of volcanoes in subduction zones. The project aims to investigate the origin of silicic, volatile-rich magmas in young Mexican volcanoes to determine whether they form deep within the Earth's mantle or develop in the crust above the mantle. Researchers will analyze the...
- The National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $420,527 Project Grant to the Carnegie Institution of Washington to investigate the magmatic architecture of the Kermadec-Tonga Arc submarine volcanoes. The project aims to use satellite altimetry data to derive gravity anomalies and create 3D images of the magmatic systems underlying 60 underwater volcanoes along the arc. This will address key questions about what controls the depth and volume of magma storage...
- This Project Grant award of $655,938 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project to conduct 3D multichannel seismic surveys at the East Pacific Rise volcanic system. The goal is to create high-resolution imagery that can be used to investigate how the magmatic and hydrothermal systems have changed over the past decade, providing insights into volcanic cycles on decadal timescales. The project will partner with industry...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will provide $249,414 to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to conduct collaborative research on seismic reflection imaging of volcanic cycles at the East Pacific Rise. The project aims to investigate how the magmatic and hydrothermal systems beneath the seafloor spreading axis have changed over the past decade through a time-lapse 3D seismic survey, building on previous data...
- 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...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $206,258 to Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory to acquire oceanographic instrumentation needed for research aboard the R/V Marcus G. Langseth, a seismic and seafloor mapping research vessel. The award funds the purchase of a 600-meter seismic source umbilical cable, which will serve as a spare, and a CNAVX3 positioning system to enhance the vessel's capabilities in...
- This Project Grant award of $536,993.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to measure the deformation of the seafloor off Kīlauea Volcano in Hawai'i over a 4-year period. The research will deploy a network of 4 seafloor geodesy sites to track horizontal displacement and reoccupy benchmarks to measure 20-year vertical deformation along a fault system underlying the volcano's submarine flank. The results will...
- 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...
