The National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities awarded American University $311,425 on August 15, 2026, to acquire an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) and microwave digestion system under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083). The ICP-MS will be housed at American University in Washington, D.C., and will support interdisciplinary environmental research focusing on elemental analysis across marine ecology, environmental chemistry, urban stream ecology, and toxicology. Research priorities include investigating heavy metals in Arctic marine mammals and sea life, trace metals in Arctic ecosystems from thawing permafrost to reveal contaminant extent affecting wildlife and indigenous food sources, and pollutant pathways and ecosystem health across sediments, water, and biological tissues. The instrumentation will enable community-based environmental monitoring initiatives in the Arctic and support collaborations with institutions across the Washington, D.C. area. The award will enhance STEM education by providing students hands-on experience in elemental analysis and expand American University's analytical capabilities to address current and future research questions across multiple ecosystems and organisms. The period of performance runs through July 31, 2029.
