- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $282,421, with a period of performance from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, is funded through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The project aims to develop a modern chronostratigraphy and paleoenvironment reconstruction for the Naran Bulak and Gashato Formations in Mongolia, which contain an important fossil mammal record from the early Paleogene period (66-48 million years ago). The research will apply high-precision...

The Geosciences program aims to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system via basic...
- 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 $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 two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences provides $174,000 to study mammals as indicators of ecological recovery following the Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction event. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award will support basic research exploring the relationship between topographic diversity and the reestablishment of mammal populations in the aftermath of the extinction. By strengthening understanding of the...
- 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...
- The Colorado Museum of Natural History, doing business as the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, received a $1,282,009 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on how terrestrial ecosystems rebuilt following the Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction event approximately 66 million years ago. The research will involve extensive paleontological and geochemical analyses of existing fossil collections and new field...
- 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.
