- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $143,055 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The grant aims to develop a modern chronostratigraphy and paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the Naran Bulak and Gashato Formations in Mongolia, which contain important Paleogene mammal fossil records. The project will apply high-precision age-dating techniques, including magnetostratigraphy, chemostratigraphy, Ar/Ar and...
- This $147,302 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research at Dartmouth College to develop a new geological framework for understanding key events in Earth's history during the early Paleogene period (~66-48 million years ago). The researchers will apply modern, high-precision age-dating techniques to the sedimentological and mammal fossil records of the Naran Bulak and Gashato Formations in Mongolia. This...
- This $419,234 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity over long timescales. Key objectives include: Analyzing changes in mammal functional diversity, floral composition, and abiotic factors like temperature before, during, and after the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) climate event in the Bighorn Basin, Wyoming. This will elucidate the...
- This $372,195 federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports a collaborative research project to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity using a high-resolution fossil record and novel AI workflows. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award, which began on November 1, 2024, include: Generating 3D datasets from micro-CT scans of mammalian fossils to characterize functional...
- This $116,693 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to illuminate fundamental climate processes that influenced terrestrial ecology in western Pangea during Earth's previous icehouse period. Key goals combine paleontology, isotope geochemistry, and magnetostratigraphy to: identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary in Utah's Cutler Group sedimentary rocks; determine the pace and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity. The $205,877 award to the Stony Brook University Research Foundation will generate 3D datasets from micro-CT scans of mammalian fossils and develop new AI tools to rapidly analyze functional traits like dental topography and limb morphology. This will characterize changes in mammalian functional...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $236,141 supports research by Columbia University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) from May 15, 2022 to April 30, 2025. The research aims to reconstruct the missing geological record of late Proterozoic tectonism along the western margin of Laurentia using low-temperature thermochronology. Researchers will study the thermal imprint of sedimentary cover on basement rocks beneath major unconformities to fill a one-billion-year gap in the...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to examine how terrestrial ecosystems were rebuilt following the Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction event approximately 66 million years ago. The $234,197 award, with a project period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2028, will fund paleontological and geochemical analyses of fossil collections and new field...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $202,138 Project Grant to the University of Washington under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The grant funds a collaborative research project to examine the evolution of North American small mammal communities in response to landscape changes over the past 30 to 5 million years. The researchers will collect fossils and sediment samples from the U.S. Great Plains and Northwest to study how changes in habitat...
- Berkeley Geochronology Center will provide collaborative research on mammal evolution after the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event through a $183,887 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Over three years from August 2023 to July 2026, the Center will generate and integrate fossil mammal and climate proxy records across the first seven million years of the Paleocene in eastern Montana. A diverse team of geologists...
