- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will fund a collaborative research project to investigate moisture-driven mechanisms of ice growth in Antarctica during the Miocene climate optimum, approximately 17-14.8 million years ago. The $237,667 award, with a performance period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, will support an interdisciplinary team of researchers across three institutions, led by George Mason University. The project...
- This federal Project Grant award of $370,228, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078), supports collaborative research on the mechanisms of moisture-driven ice growth during the Miocene Climate Optimum, a past period of global warming. The interdisciplinary research team will use advanced Earth system models and geologic data to investigate how increased high-latitude snowfall may have offset Antarctic ice sheet melt during this warmer climate interval....
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) provides $100,956.00 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York to conduct collaborative research investigating southern ocean sea surface temperatures and freshening during the late Pliocene and Pleistocene along the Antarctic margin. The objective is to generate multi-proxy paleoclimate records of sea surface temperature and meltwater during deglacial and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) provides $184,798 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (Stony Brook University) to conduct collaborative research on temporal variations in glacial and subglacial structures of Antarctica. The research aims to better understand how seismic properties within and beneath the Antarctic ice sheets change over time, which can provide insights into ice sheet dynamics and responses to...
- This $561,300 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) supports research to reconstruct sea ice and freshwater changes in the East Greenland Current during the Younger Dryas, a cold period that interrupted the Earth's warming climate 11,700-12,900 years ago. The project aims to provide quantitative data to understand what triggered an abrupt slowdown of ocean circulation that caused prominent cooling in the Northern Hemisphere during this...
- This Project Grant award of $231,050 from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will fund research to investigate the mechanisms that relate ocean circulation in the open ocean to ice sheet melt in Antarctica. The primary objectives are to: 1) Quantify the pathways of Circumpolar Deep Water from its origin in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current to the Antarctic continental slope, and 2) Determine the physical mechanisms that govern the variability of these pathways. The...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $359,487, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to The Trustees of Princeton University. The funding will be used to develop advanced analytical methods for high-resolution chemical imaging and dating of ancient ice cores from Antarctica's Blue Ice Areas, which contain climate records spanning over 1 million years. Specifically, the project will utilize cryo-cell laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) is funding research to improve the accuracy of forecasts for future sea-level rise. The $782,557 award, active from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2030, aims to develop efficient artificial intelligence (AI) representations of complex glacier processes to incorporate into ice-sheet models without substantially increasing computational costs. The research will condense three specific glacier processes...
- This $261,875 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research study on Antarctic ice margin dynamics at the University of Delaware. The research aims to reconstruct a record of changes in the Antarctic ice sheet over time by analyzing ice rafted debris preserved in ocean sediment cores. The project will leverage sediment core data from an Ocean Drilling Program site in the southern Indian Ocean to investigate...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs awarded a $225,001 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan, Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, to conduct "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: BACK TO THE FUTURE: ASSIMILATING PALEO THINNING RATES AND GROUNDING LINE POSITIONS TO CONSTRAIN FUTURE ANTARCTIC SEA LEVEL CONTRIBUTIONS" under CFDA 47.078 - Polar Programs. The project aims to merge archived constraints on past ice-sheet behavior from around, above,...
