- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $503,027.00 is funding a collaborative research project to assess the formation, morphology, and persistence of North American ice patches over the Holocene period. The research aims to develop detailed, multifaceted records of environmental and ecological change in high-elevation regions across the Northern Rocky Mountains and Alaska, where few long-term historical records exist. The...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $349,754 to Montana State University (MSU) to quantify how century to millennial-scale hillslope geomorphic processes influence the storage of ice and carbon in Arctic permafrost soils. The research aims to shed light on fundamental geological processes that control the resilience and vulnerability of ground-ice and carbon in permafrost landscapes, which is critical for understanding future...
- This $204,782 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to determine when and how quickly the Cordilleran Ice Sheet in western Canada disappeared since the end of the last ice age. The project will create a 3-D reconstruction of the ice sheet's collapse by collecting and dating rock samples across the region. This data will be used in computer models to simulate the ice sheet's past...
- Montana State University was awarded a $481,268 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs to conduct research titled "LIFE IN ICE: PROBING MICROBIAL ENGLACIAL ACTIVITY THROUGH TIME." The grant was awarded on September 15, 2021 with a completion date of August 31, 2024. The research is being conducted under the NSF's Polar Programs, which aims to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the polar regions through support of basic research best...
- This federal Project Grant award of $355,024 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research effort to reconstruct the collapse of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet in western Canada since the last ice age. The project aims to determine the timing and rate of the ice sheet's disappearance over the past 10-20 thousand years through geologic dating of rock samples and computer modeling. By improving understanding of past ice sheet changes, the...
- This $289,011 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Earth Sciences (CFDA 47.050 Geosciences) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison supports research to reconstruct Holocene glacier lengths across North and South America. The research objectives are to: 1) constrain glacier length changes using radiocarbon and beryllium-10 dating, 2) determine glacier length histories through statistical and glaciological modeling, and 3) identify plausible climate scenarios...
- This $602,967 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program. The grant supports a multiscale research project to enhance understanding of permafrost and frozen soil properties, and how they respond to climate change over time. The research team from Montana State University will employ advanced imaging techniques, laboratory experiments, and computer simulations to investigate how microstructural features of frozen soil affect...
- The University of Montana received a $364,234 project grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs on September 1, 2021 to conduct collaborative research titled "INTEGRATING DATA AND MODELING TO QUANTIFY RATES OF GREENLAND ICE SHEET CHANGE, HOLOCENE TO FUTURE." The research is being conducted under the NSF's Polar Programs, with a focus on strengthening fundamental knowledge and understanding of polar regions as outlined in the program's CFDA #47.078....
- This three-year, $109,644 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences aims to advance understanding of abrupt climate change through reconstructing fluctuations of a late-glacial ice mass in eastern North America. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the University of Arizona will lead efforts to determine the role of seasonality in abrupt climate shifts by mapping glacial landforms and dating the pattern and timing of recession for an ice cap...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $414,744 to Colorado State University from September 2022 through August 2025 to investigate past, present, and future glaciated alpine landscapes using integrated data and modeling. The award supports developing detailed modern and paleo glaciological datasets from the Teton Range in Wyoming and integrating them into a state-of-the-art glacier model (PyG2D) to simulate past and ongoing glacier...
