This $146,700 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to synthesize existing tree-ring proxy data in Southeast Asia and compare it to paleo-streamflow estimates generated by a hydrological model. The goal is to create a seasonal-resolution paleo-streamflow reconstruction for the region and illuminate the mechanisms driving observed streamflow dynamics. The project includes support for two early...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), aims to reconstruct rainfall intensity and variability in mainland Southeast Asia over the last 200,000 years. The $476,878 project, with a performance period from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2028, will use geochemical measurements of cave deposits from Laos and Vietnam to understand the mechanisms driving variability in the Asian Summer Monsoon and Asian Winter Monsoon. The research,...
This Project Grant award of $220,934, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to reconstruct rainfall intensity and Asian monsoon patterns in mainland Southeast Asia over the past 200,000 years. The research team from William Paterson University of New Jersey will analyze stable isotopes and trace elements in cave deposits (speleothems) from Laos and Vietnam, along with climate model simulations, to improve...
This $259,328 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at Tulane University to develop novel methods for real-time streamflow estimation and forecasting. The University will integrate direct measurements with numerical models to more accurately capture short-term flood wave propagation effects and seasonal impacts of riparian vegetation changes. Researchers will combine experimental, data-driven, and physics-based modeling to enable...

The project will use geochemical measurements of cave deposits from Laos and Vietnam, along with climate model simulations, to improve understanding of the mechanisms driving variability in the Asian Summer Monsoon and...
This $403,680 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to improve streamflow monitoring and forecasting methods. The University of Iowa will enhance protocols for continuously monitoring streamflows to more accurately capture effects of flood wave propagation and seasonal riparian vegetation changes. Researchers will integrate direct measurements with numerical models to enable real-time estimation and forecasting of streamflow...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $276,385 to the University of Arkansas will support a collaborative research effort to reconstruct and analyze precipitation and streamflow in the Amazon River Basin over the past 250-300 years. The key products and services to be delivered include: Creating a long-term record of rainfall extremes in the eastern Amazon using tree-ring data from the Cedrela odorata species, which demonstrates...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $343,807 to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2027. The project will test whether quantitative paleohydrologic reconstruction methods are consistent with existing detrital provenance data interpretations of drainage network changes across the western United States during the Laramide orogeny from the late Cretaceous to early Eocene...
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 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), is aimed at understanding how forests respond to drought and high temperatures. The $290,728 award will fund research to unveil the role of hillslope hydrology in mediating ecosystem response to drought in forest ecosystems. The key products and services to be delivered include: Using a variety of tools, such as direct forest measurements and satellite observations, to...
